Around the Yard on Saturday

Neil is getting into composting. We have been collecting vegetable remains and eggshells in a plastic container in the kitchen and depositing them out in the corner of the yard. He dug a hole this morning and buried the compost stuff and the clippings the gardener has produced.

Thank goodness for the big blue generator. The power was going on and off a bit this morning, so the generator kicked in. It's now 2:30 p.m. and it's still going. Diesel, baby! Not sure how farmer Neil feels about that. I'm sure solar power would be preferable ...

I was so proud of Ellie. She was being a real cat: She may look calm, but she was attentively listening to birds chirping and flying around outside the kitchen.
