Even More Scenes of Summer
Lucas is pretty sure that these chickens are meant to be lap chickens—at least Midnight.
Avalanche and Snowdrift graze in the backyard. The hens are enjoying morning and evening ranging hours. Alas, they are displacing the mulch in my flowerbeds a lot. I’m wondering if I could coax them to the school field two doors down and back again (but I would be afraid of off-leash dogs).
Lucas’s garden is about to overwhelm us with juicy red tomatoes. Just this week they are turning red.
A magical moment at Sacramento Waldorf School just before the summer camp play began. The oak tree at the Oak Stage is magnificent.
A backyard visitor graciously paused for my photo. I’m pretty stoked about this shot.
Evening picnics on the lawn are fun. There’s a bit of sandwich-eating, a bit of snuggling, a bit of wrestling, a bit of coaxing the hens to eat out of our hands, and …
… a good bit of airplane rides with Daddy.
