We have a new puppy, but it's a bit weird, so we'll probably sweep it under the rug and wait for another to appear.

Day one of this year's battle with Canadian goldenrod, Solidago canadensis (a bit late, I know). I decided not to use a brushcutter for a number of reasons. Cutting the plants would leave sharp stumps of stems in the ground. Not that I walk around barefoot, but our dogs, , do. Tearing the plants out by hand is easy in most areas, thanks to their shallow roots. It also gives me a chance to think and not remove the few other plants that goldenrod was suppressing. Even the nettles. Nettles are stingy, but nice.

Best to play such games on sand. All traces of blood disappear immediately.

The road was dry for a couple of days but now it's back to the way like it the most.

It's nice to cool off in the middle of the road during a long walk on sunny day.

are inspecting tree branches we stuck in the hole to warn anyone taking that road.

Guardians of the construction site. They just hope we won't use all that sand.

Yesterday this forest track was dry. The few hours of downpour last night helped to bring it back to it's natural condition. Not all are happy about it, but this one definitely is.
