8/14/24

 I slept horribly. My sciatic nerve was pissed off at me, I had a terrible headache and was nauseous too. This all started around 2:30 am and I was up for the day. Paul and I got on the road about 5:15 am to drive to camp.

Today we had a big tree taken down. It was a staple tree but had to go due to its size and condition. Our landscape looks completely different. 

It was a little bitter sweet. I have pictures of the kids in that tree. That tree has been in my pictures, offered shade and I have trimmed the new growth on that tree. I remember it as a kid how pretty the sun sets were. I remember looking through the branches at the sun setting behind what we called the “W” tree.

It was fun to watch the methodical way this gigantic tree was taken down limb by limb. Once it was done, this company cleaned up so well you couldn’t even tell they were there. It was impressive.





Avery packed for her camping half week she is spending with a friend and their family. 

Today I found another monarch caterpillar as well as two eggs. I am going to take them home to our aquarium. Science is fun.

We went to dinner with my aunt and uncle, who are right next to us at camp. We went to Texas Roadhouse. The service was great. The food was yummy!

We watched a bit of TV and I had to go to bed. The eye lids were heavy.
