@liltrombs gave me a squirrel picnic table for Christmas and I have been screwing corn cobs onto it for months. The corn is always gone but it took till Mother’s Day to catch an actual picnicking squirrel!!! The whole family witnessed it, a beautiful event!
Perfect weather for a bike ride with @liltrombs and a beer at the end!
A partial-family tradition, Margaret and I started Thanksgiving with the annual Turkey Trot! This year was a virtual event. I don’t think the US Olympic Committee will be calling, but it’s nice to burn 500 calories before 🦃 and we helped raise money for neighborhood charities when they need it most.
Oklahoma City, the site of an unspeakable tragic loss and a peaceful healing place of remembrance. Darkness and light meet in this spot.
