On the homestead blog: more leafy treats and wading in the pool for the ducklings today. 🦆
Day: 2020-08-26
The answer to today’s question: a backpack sprayer. I spent a couple of hours this morning using it to spray weeds in our paths and gardens. I hand-pull weeds in areas around the ducks etc, but there are too many to do that everywhere. #WhatsItWednesday
The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 26 is “relentless” (suggested by @poetalegre). I can’t think of anything more relentless around the homestead than bamboo. I recently cut this grove to the ground, and it keeps on sprouting new stalks. 📷 #mbaug
Let’s play What’s It Wednesday again. What do you think this is? #WhatsItWednesday
Today is the three year anniversary of adopting Paladin. Here is a video from three years ago today. After meeting and falling in love with Paladin at the cat shelter, he was cutely vocal in wanting to come home with us. 📹🐈
Flowers of the day: geum, lobelia, and Russian sage in the new fountain garden. 🌱
