It’s been a long day! I didn’t have to go anywhere, and the weather was good, so I finally got some progress outside.
First, the cuteness!
The mama and her secret babies seem to be good with my coming into the garage and leaving food for them. No attempt to move them again. I guess actually picking up the smokey kitten was just too much for the mom.
Still, seeing both kittens at the same time – and eating with Mom – is pretty rare!
In the next photo of the slideshow above, we have full belly babies, enjoying the morning sun on my late fathers old car. I’m pretty sure this is two litters, but they behave like one.
I’ve been checking on the garlic while doing my rounds and they will be ready to harvest soon. With that in mind, I finally opened up the canopy tent I bought on clearance last fall and set it up.
I have to admit; for a cheap canopy tent, it came with the highest quality pegs I’ve ever seen with any kit we’ve bought before!
Usually, they’re skimpy pegs that easily bend. I’m quite glad for the high quality ones, because with a couple of the legs, I had quite a time finding a spot where I could actually put the peg through without hitting something.
The tent was packed in a cardboard box inside the case. After I got everything out and starting working on the tent, the cats discovered it.
They were having so much fun with it, I left it there for them when it was time to clean up.
That done, my next project was to finally start on the new wattle weave bed in the old kitchen garden.
Which took all day, and is nowhere near finished, but I’ll get into that in my next post!
See you there… 😊
