Curiously Intertwined

Monday, June 8, 2026

The yucca has suddenly bloomed.

Fireball and I took GB#3 to Indiana Comic Convention today

to celebrate his birthday.

We had a good time and he seemed to be quite knowledgeable

about most of the characters walking around.

He was excited to get his photo taken with this one.

Fireball and I are working on a long procrastinated project today

and needed some supplies from the local home improvement store.

It is amazing how many boards will fit in a small car

when the back seats will flip down revealing the trunk.

These 8-foot boards spanned the distance from the back of the trunk,

almost to the radio past the console

and to the tops of the seat backs.

This chipmunk has been chirping on the deck for a while.

He has moved to the edge

and is ready to sprint for the bird feeder.

I filled the feeders today

so I spent some time watching the increased activity.

It may not be especially clear to see,

but the adult woodpecker (stripes showing)

is feeding a young one (belly showing.)

I haven't seen a nuthatch in a while,

so this was fun to see.

It's on my list to learn how to solve my new puzzle tomorrow,

but I accomplished the task early.
