Monday morning I looked out the window and saw this little guy eating his breakfast.

Yum! Fresh maple seeds

As he reached for another helping, something must have caught his attention.  He turned and stretched up to better see down the lawn.

Looking, but still chewing

There was no threat just an unusual noise from the neighbor’s farm.  No threat?  No problem!  Time to continue the task at hand.

“I just can’t get enough of these.”

I watched a bit longer, but then left to go about my business.

Today

We have company coming today.  Brother-in-law, Rick with my sisters Clara and Maggie are coming for a visit.  Rick starts a new job on Monday, so he has a little bit of free time today.  We do this from time to time, and I always look forward to it.

Also, FedEx tracking indicates that Sylvia’s new computer is on the delivery truck and should arrive here later today.  This is the unit that she used for two days before it died.  I had bought it from a reseller on Amazon.com.  When I checked warranty status online before sending the computer to the manufacturer for repair or replacement, I discovered that six weeks remained of the one year warranty.  Do you think I’ll purchase from that source again?  Ever?  That’s right.  No way!

I need to harvest some rhubarb for Sylvia.  I think there’s some rhubarb crisp on our menu for today. :food:
