Birds

Sunday morning on the farm. We were watching t.v. when Lance saw a bird fly past the window. It was a young Great Horned Owl. I find it amusing that it looks like a cat perched on the garden shed.

The patchwork is my latest project for the quilt shop. I didn't have the 16" pillow to put inside, so you'll just have to imagine it puffy.

One more week and then we leave for 16 days in Germany. We will see Berlin, Munich, Saltzburg, Rothenberg and Fussen. I have started walking to get ready for sightseeing on foot. I should have started sooner (one of my bad habits). I am taking my camera, and will share more when we return.

This week's harvest included potatoes and the first round of grapes. Lance spent two days washing, stemming, crushing and pressing out the juice. He got five gallons of juice from seven vines. it seems everything he grows produces an abundant crop.
