I spent most of Saturday hauling dirt out of the pond, and watching the pair of killdeer that made their nest in there try to keep watch over the four little babies they hatched out. Momma killdeer puts on quite a show if anything gets too close to those little ones.
I took most of the day off from doing chores yesterday. I think Nephew and his GF are getting serious. Mom, Aunty, little brother, Gramma and Grampa all drove down here from Kansas to meet the family. With all of that special company you have to have a bbq, so we did. It was a conga line of home-grown chickens cooked in the smoker, cauliflower, cabbage and new potatoes from the garden.
