I love that new plant! What a fun find. We have a whole family of turkeys that wander around our area; it’s really cute to see the babies growing. So sorry to read about Alex’s poison ivy. That sounds like it was painful.
Oh the poison ivy was awful. I have never seen blisters so big!
What a unique plant!! Aptly named. It is really cool.
I think bubble tea is also called boba tea…do you know if that is right? I have put trying boba tea on my summer bucket list. My sister had an alcoholic version and liked it. Maybe that’s what you needed!! Also want to try rolled ice cream this summer.
Proud that Alex spoke at the camp closing ceremony. I know you were proud, too. Looking forward to seeing pics of your vacation.
We’ve seen baby antelope, deer & turkeys recently. I enjoy seeing the wildlife animals while out & about. Your kitty & pup look so relaxed, I just want to reach down & pet them. Oh dear, that poison ivy. A cabin vacation sounds nice & relaxing, looking forward to reading about what you did at the cabin in July’s sentence a day. Karen
