Snapshots from Camp
The view, sitting around the fire at our cabin one morning.

Memorial Day Weekend Camping Adventures
We had a blast camping this long weekend with the Alexander crew. Here's a few shots from the warmest day when a few crazy people from our bunch decided they'd go for a swim. The rest of us enjoyed the water from the edge.
Mr. Peepers comes to visit
We met Mr. Peepers last week when he found our bird feeder. To our surprise he didn't have much of an interest (yet) in jumping up to the bird feeder and choosing his own meal. He was quite content to rummage through the leftovers on the ground. While we watched him eat and bury his findings, we decided his name must be Mr. Peepers because of his funny exagerated antics when he eats (like the SNL skit). He looked up at us in the window a few times, but didn't mind us watching him either. 
And then we came up onto our steps and flattened out on his belly, presumably to cool off (our steps were in the shade). Although the second picture makes him look a little nervous, he was very relaxed and hung around for quite a while. Maybe we are too easiliy amused, but we enjoyed our first meeting with Mr. Peepers.
...now how do we make sure he doesn't get any more ideas about the birdfeeder? :)

Pinball Wizard, there's got to be a twist...
Pinball wizard's got such a supple wrist! Our Pinball Wizard is Scott, who's been working on fixing the Alexander's pinball game for the past couple weeks. And now it's working! There's a few more tweaks Scott is planning on making, but all in all it's great! Now I just need to figure out how to use the Magna-Save......
Our Lawn in Bloom
I was so pleased that so many bulbs came up! And now the tulips are starting to bloom too!
It's been fun to see what all the plants around the yard are turning out to be!
And our tree finally came into full bloom a few weeks ago, only to get pounded by a heavy rain! Just a hint of fragrance. Very pretty.
