A Slight Hole In Our Spring Day

Yesterday was a perfect spring-like day encouraging lots of sunshine napping at Chez Herd, though we did have a slight hole develop.

Oooooh, this is fun.

Oooooh, this is fun.

The art of napping is lost on the young and their endless energy.  Let’s say that almost everyone enjoyed lots of sunshine napping while a certain youngster amused himself.

Hey, I can hear an echo.

Hey, I can hear an echo.

Don’t worry. While the children played, the adults took full advantage of such a beautiful day.

Don't disturb me, kid.

Don’t disturb me, kid.

Believe it or not, just a week ago, we were dealing with several days of subfreezing temperatures and snow. In case you had forgotten, Hu-Dad has some photos of the weather over at his photography blog.

    My back yard looks like it’s been pelted with mortar rounds! Will need a ton of topsoil to fill it back in. Anni and Tasha have been busy! ????

    Ebby sez: Hey Landon, didn’t the ground get all frozen there? It sure did here, much too solid for any digging for awhile yet.

      Our winter was much too warm. No frozen ground here.

A Shark Attacked My Best Friend

June 20, 2025 - In honor of the 50th anniversary of the theatrical debut of the movie Jaws, the film that was the inspiration for these events, D. K. Wall recorded the story in audio and video. The original story was posted on October 9, 2022.

A shark attacked my best friend when I was 11. His screams were awful. The silence that followed was worse. I was alone in the ocean.

Enjoy it your way
