My camera doesn't have a very good zoom, so I did the best I could with the possum pic. He is cute, but don't get to close -- possums are very fierce!
After the deer eat, they head to the pond for a drink. I did not know this and let Alice out to run around. I saw some deer streaking for the woods and Alice on their tails....I think it was one of the finest moments of Alice's life! The deer were in no danger of being caught, but Alice was very proud.
I brought two bankers boxes of notes and books with me to work while I am here. Sadly, I have not yet finished chapter one, but I'm close and hope to finish it this week. My supervisor gave me good feedback and called one of my sections, and I quote, "important and pathbreaking." I am naturally thrilled at this!
Harry Kitty has set up shop underneath the dining room table where I am working and has claimed the position of "study buddy." Good thing, because I can't write a thing without a buddy!
Hank (short-haired sheltie), Scooby (hound mix), and Alice are all outside playing in the field. Baby Bean took some excellent pictures of Nana's amaryllis that are currently in bloom. They are an old-fashioned kind; the bulbs were originally Nana's great grandmother's. I have some too, but mine are not nearly as showy.
