So when do we get more? This has all the hallmarks of the adventure-mystery stories I read as a boy with some very grownup perks. Nicely done little brother.
Was there ever any doubt that Liebe would have as strong a personality as her father? It's kinda funny now, give it 15-16 years and we'll see. I have no doubt that she'll be as well behaved as CJ and as naughty.
Few years?!? That photo was taken on Val's last birthday. That's why she's wearin' a tiara. Plus, the 18 yearold body she's talkin' about belongs to some poor kid who was jogging past her house that morning. She tased him and dragged him into the house singin' "Happy Birthday to Me!".
Please continue to take care. Think of your neck like COVID19, things might have begun to loosen up but continue taking precautions to avoid a flare up.
I envy you a bit. No space to really garden her at mum's. I did plant some onions along with Royal Oak leaf and a variety of minature red romaine lettuces. It hasn't been very successful. The soil here is very sandy mixed with clay so the onions haven't done much more than grow into very slender six inch shoots. The lettuces were coming along nicely until the guy came to wash the house. Wherever the solution he used splattered onto the oak leaf it caused the leaves to brown and die off. The centers are growing out again but the weather has become hot so I think it will "bolt" before I get much from them. The romaine heads were just beginning to form compact heads when the heat arrived causing the plants to begin to bolt. That is until two nights ago when the deer came through and nipped the tips out of them. Damned creatures also ate the buds off two-thirds of the daylilies. Came back the next night to get the rest. Despite this stunning lack of success I'll try again next year. I plan however to plant in a container garden where I can control the soil quailty and moisture. The neighbors on both sides use them for tomatoes and peppers and collect a nice season long harvest.
