In Case You Missed It

In case you missed it, we have brought back the updates from The Acre. We're sure the three to four regular readers will be thrilled. Or not, we're cool either way.
We start off the triumphant return with some serious "Bestest Husband Ever" points. A few weeks ago, Cupcake was on another whirlwind business trip, this time in Richmond. One evening after she did her thing, she walked across the parking lot of her hotel to a little knick knack shop, and found the storage cabinet of her dreams. She took a picture of it, and sent it to the Lawman, who was on the front porch with the dog, standing by to punish predators. When he got the picture and the story, he dropped everything, threw a change of clothing and his toothbrush into a Wades shopping bag, and drove to Richmond to get the cabinet. A ten hour drive was totally worth making Cupcake happy.

Now we have a spot to put all our canned goodies from this season. As you can see, we almost have it full.
We did a short update a while back about our bees, but that is pretty much our claim to fame this year. We've managed to keep them alive and in one spot. We're really hoping for a jar or two of honey this fall. This time of year we seem to be feeding syrup every other day. It's been very dry this summer and nectar has left the flowers it seems.

But the dry weather has not slowed down the butterflies any. We've never noticed so many butterflies before, but we're not complaining.

The last few pictures are a little mystery. Big announcement coming next week, but until then, here are your clues....

It's been a year since last we confirmed it, but we still end the week with wings.
