We found out that the gunshots we heard two months ago were in fact our neighbor shooting at a magpie. Ah, country life.

I can't get used to the water here. This is the pot we use to boil water in for dish washing (we use bottled water for cooking and drinking). The pot was originally black inside before the local well water did it's damage. The same white crap can be found in my hair brush, ewwww....

We attended The Cherry Festival in Bruno last weekend. Tyler entered the cherry pit spitting contest. His pit spitting efforts were pitiful. Regardless, we had a darn good time.

We found this note on our door when we got home late last night. I found the handwriting a little difficult to decipher, it reads: "Don't use ANY water Lines are Treated with Sodium Hypochlorite(?)".

Tyler was driving home from a late shift at work last week (it was about 1:30am) when he almost ran over a mysterious animal on the road. He described it as a long-haired ape/dog which moved like a sloth. He swerved to avoid it, freaked him right out! When he asked his co-workers about it the next day the consensus was he saw a wolverine. Apparently one has been spotted out here but sightings are quite rare so he now considers himself lucky to have seen it.
