Still no deer.

This summer, we are having each of our

older grandkids come for visit.

This is Jack,

our eldest grandson.

He is with us for a few days at the cabin.

He loves to whittle

and build fires.

Mickey, what are you doing up there?

"The very last piece of trim on the roof,

finally!"

The deer feeder needs corn-

Lower, fill and raise!

But, still no deer! :(

Riding to the creek.

Please notice the new helmet!

Discussing how to skip rocks.

I am unsure of the roles here-

teacher and student?

Suddenly, this little creature appeared!

Marmot?

Mole?

Or what?

If you know, please post the answer!

While we watched,

he covered the hole

from within!

A bit unfriendly, we thought. 

Back at the cabin,

this Red Headed Woodpecker

was too intent on his mission

to notice us!

Thank you for eating bugs from our trees!

Jack and the axe.

There are so many things

that a ten year old can do

when his younger siblings

are not around!
