Oscar's not gonna know what the heck happened to the quiet little SkinnyB he once knew... LOL! I'll be 1/2 way up a wall before he realizes he's not in a dream/nightmare.

Pickling Cucumbers

The first cucumbers out of the garden are GIANT!

I'm laughing myself silly. These things are insanely big and I attribute it to all the monsoon type rains lately.

I started following this car on I-10. Odd

Zach in a brown paper bag

I think the only reason he posed so nicely was the promise of a treat. Now seeing the picture he looks like he's wrapped in a brown paper bag. Now that's funny.

He's actually in a fishing vest. He wouldn't let me put on his hat, but I can't say I blame him. I tried his chicken costume on him and it was too small. Oops.

I am twisted!

Corn Failure

I'm so sad. My corn transplants didn't produce large enough corn to eat. The other plants nearby may chokeout the corn since they were grown from seed and are very strong.

Zach Mule

Zach loves the bakpak. Now I call him ZachMule. This was the first successful walk I've ever had with him. He looked so cute walking the neighborhood. He didn't pull the leash a single time. I think I consider this success.

Bouldering... 2nd time

These are the climbing shoes I picked up today. They were very comfortable during my first climb in them. I'm looking forward to trying them out with the new harness as well.

Monkey Bread! Eeeeeeeek!!!

How fun!
