25 years ago today, Jennifer and I got married. Actually, technically it was yesterday, since it was in New Zealand, but we ignore the time zone differences. It was April 2, 1995.

On the Dejus YouTube channel, a funny chicken video: I gave the chickens some apple peel (and kale) as a treat. Camilla managed to grab a big chunk, and was chased around the veggie garden and chicken runs by the other chickens, who wanted to snag a piece.

Today’s moment of cuteness: Rory sitting on the path to the duck house, and the ducks debating if they’re brave enough to walk past her (nope; they went around the other way).

Our ancient indoor cat tower (or “tree”) was slowly disintegrating, so we recently replaced it with a new one. Pippin- and Paladin-approved.

A moment of cuteness from the afternoon rounds yesterday: while collecting eggs from the chickens, the ducks came over to say hi, and Rory was a good girl, just sitting and not trying to get to them. 🦆🐕

Well, darn. The Oregon Shakespeare Festival just announced that they are delaying the season till the fall, due to COVID-19. We were going to attend in May and August; May was looking extremely unlikely, but now August is out too. We might still go to Ashland then if things are settled down by then, though who knows what the world will be like then.
