Birdthday Bath

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As a combined birthday gift Mari and I got each other this copper birdbath to complete our little wildlife menagerie. We reused an old solar fountain we had and it seems to be happy in it's new home.

York Rising

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For our birthdays Dad got us a heritage tree. This is a tulip poplar grown from the seeds of the one planted at Alvin C. York’s gravesite.So of course we have named him Alvin. Let's hope he grows big, strong, and throws lots of shade.

Raft Redux

 

 

 

Raft came out quite a while ago. I played the early access version with Payton during his long COVID era visit. I put it on the shelf until the developers actually finished the game so I could see the end content. Well they did, and I did. Good, solid survival game with some unique elements. Slightly let down by some quirky decisions, but well worth the time I spent on it.
