It's amazing what can happen in your absence.
I took a three day adventure over to Jeff's (Bobblehead Homestead) to help Prepsteader Bob and a plethora of other volunteers get some work done on the Tiny Home that Love built only to return to all sorts of things.
My seedlings were drying out while Red Pepper was capturing a giant snake, and then I found a Copperhead almost immediately upon arrival. Soon the winds were blowing and branches were breaking, falling directly onto my fenceline. Thankfully, some more strawberries were ready to be picked, so it was great to be back home!
