"Ralph" just keeps giving his parts away


nice looking chickens







My birthday picture with Elder Peterson

Frog I almost stepped on just outside our back patio.
 October 5 - On our morning walk we saw this woman in her wheelchair. I pushed her for a while, then Elder Bleak took over. He pushed her up to the roundabout and got her safely through the busy traffic to the other side.


Love the jackaranda tree

 October 6 - Pictures of children going to school

These chickens were not going to school. However, their mother did lead them over to a garbage pile and was teaching them to scratch around in it for food.  Maybe that was their school.
