Happy Memorial Day

 TWIT and I would like to wish you, faithful readers, a very happy Memorial Day. Take some time today to remember and honor all of the military that have given their lives in service. 

A Day Of Rest

 The Old Man had a rough night last night - he was up for a couple of hours sick at his stomach.  After he threw up (TMI) he said he felt a bit better and was able to go back to bed for a few hours of sleep.  He's in his recliner now drinking some ginger ale and resting.  I hope he will be back in action soon. 

Update From The Compound

 I sprayed my ground hog repellant yesterday, but this morning I saw what I hope is the same spawn of Hogzilla.  I got with my neighbors on both sides of us and they set out their traps close to our barn.  I hope the traps will work. 

Update From The Compound

 I'm happy to report that we've seen the finches for the past couple of days, but not happy to report that I saw a spawn of Hogzilla this morning.  As soon as I post this I will go outside and spray the ground hog repellant around the little red barn and the gazebo.  

Stay tuned. 

Update From The Compound

 I am very happy to report that we saw three finches on the feeder this afternoon. I hope they bring all of their friends here after we get through with these storms. 

Update From The Compound

 It's been a couple of days and we haven't seen any finches on our finch feeder.  We hope they will remember that they could get lots of seeds here.  

Stay tuned. 

New Product Review

 

I read online earlier this week that Krispy Kreme was selling orange Dreamsicle glazed donuts, but only available from the 14th to the 17th.  I figured what's not to love about this combination? I love Krispy Kreme glazed donuts, and I love orange Dreamsicle pops.  So I got up earlier yesterday morning and went and got some for me and the Old Man to try.  

As soon as I got home, we tried them. They were borderline stale.  I can't imagine a Krispy Kreme store ever selling stale donuts. They weren't as orange-ish as I had hoped, but I couldn't get back how they were almost stale.  That having been said, TWIT gives them a thumb's down.
