It ended up being a busy Friday that felt like a Saturday. The morning air was nice and it was a chance for us to tidy up the porch. The neighbor’s Cottonwood tree is done shedding and the screens needed a good vacuuming. A few birds did their business in midair and of course it lands on the patio doors. Just like any good project, one thing led to another and here we are with a porch that is tidy and feels good to rock away in. I love my rocking chair.

Snuggles has been pretty lucky snagging a bird now and then and, of course, he brings it into the porch for us to be proud of him. Dennis gets it into the garbage before Snuggles knows what has happened. His little nose goes crazy. Sorry Snuggles, there are no more little feathers floating around. Life on Stauffer is good, even in the heat and humidity.
