The good news is that our local fox reduced the skunk population by 1 last weekend

The bad news is my dogs figured this out before I did. 🤣


nostr:npub1xtguejmenk9qwd4n2yvpuax2tq4f6rr2jejazgfd2zaffvyu9j4slvxfsf yes, and shading from the sun because the sun hardens the skin.


nostr:npub1ywh0ktm22y6pmu088fuh24gp6dyvcdt4stwv7qmzfr0ythr7fgcqlz2tvx thanks for the reminder…I just posted the final outcome


Final update on the ridiculously giant zucchini: 45 pounds and first place in our small town fair.   All credit to my spouse for figuring out the steps to make this monstrosity happen😀
