Most people think you should never pick up a hitchhiker, but that’s not always true. If you’re less than 5 miles from a prison, you should probably be careful, but if you’re on the one-way by CVS, and a small hitchhiker lands on your window seal, you should probably hold your hand over him so […]

It wasn’t so bad this year; we actually went on Friday night and saw the glow, which is quite nice. Even nicer, though, were the butterflies that I saw right in our back yard! Great Spangled Fritillary (which is just fun to say!) Same guy, side view with the “spangles” that give him his common […]

Gold Dust dracaena (Dracaena surculosa) that I hadn’t noticed even flowering has…a fruit. I don’t know whether it’s edible, nor do I intend […]
