First Squirrel

Day 281

firstSquirrel

Where I live now used to be farm land as far as the eye could see. Old Man Peabody owned all of this. That is why, when we moved in five years (has it been that long?) there was exactly one tree on our property. After a great deal of quality time and effort with a shovel, there are now more than 30, and some of are starting to get kind of big.

Mother Nautre has noticed the change, and today, for the first time ever, we saw a squirrel on our property. Points to Charlie who spotted this critter, and eventually chased it away, but not before we all dropped what we were doing to see it, and in my case, also take a few pictures.
