Steve's Journal: The Saga Continues....

Sorry to hear about the fender bender, but it'll be a lesson he won't forget. My son had a similar lesson driving home from work, about $3600 damage if I remember correctly, paid the $500 and hasn't gotten so much as a scratch since. Taking it slow and building confidence sounds like a good plan.

I read a couple pages and no Willie pictures?! How about the cats?
 
I did manage to snap a few pics in my absence. Thought

A couple of SOTD pics (not the best I’ve ever taken), a cat in a box (Ozzy), and my first trip to Reading,PA to see the Phillies minor league affiliate.
Beautiful pics! Can't help but ask, why is the cat in the box? Looking very graceful btw!

Thanks! That’s Ozzy. He was the first of our 3 animals. A friend of mine rescued him from a hoarding situation as a very young kitten (maybe 2 months old) but he couldn’t keep him, so we took him in.
 
Shave Time!

Had a nice smooth DFS shave this morning. Broke out the Tik Tok for the first time in a while. This scent (tobacco and coffee) is more of a winter scent to me so I've kind of been avoiding it
, but the wife mentioned yesterday that she really likes it so naturally I pulled it out today.

Had a nice productive weekend, but didn't shave much lol. Saturday I got the veggie garden fixed up. We had a rabbit attack and I had to replant a lot of stuff. I put up a makeshift fence and I'll be stopping at Home Depot tonight to pick up some stuff to put up a more permanent barrier. Yesterday I got to spend Father's Day with my dad, father-in-law, and one of my uncle's. We had a nice dinner at my parents' house. My sister's boyfriend was also in town from Atlanta and he got to hang with us most of the weekend. Always a good time when he's in town. I also got to visit my sister-in-law's new horse farm yesterday which was really cool. Her and her boyfriend train thoroughbred racehorses and they'll be using the farm to rehab injured horses that can't stay at the racetrack. She has 2 of her personal horsed there now and we had to stop and feed them as she's currently in Disney World with my niece and mother-in-law.

Willie World:
Little man was beat yesterday when we got home. He had a busy weekend helping with planting, cleaning, feeding horses, and hanging with the fam.
 
Nice stuff Steve. Sounds like you've been a busy beaver. Rabbits taste good 👌 Actually I enjoy watching them run around our yard and play but I don't have a garden to worry about.

They are fun to watch run around, even more fun to watch the cats watch them through the window lol. But they destroy the garden so a fence is going up!
 
Shave TIme!

We're getting more rain...again. It's been raining here a lot this month and it's starting to get old. This isn't Seattle! lol. Hopefully it tapers off so I can get the lawn mowed. It needs it!

Willie World:
Willie also hates the rain. Refuses to go out in it. He'll shimmy his way under roof and windows along the side of the house in the flower bed when he has to go to the bathroom to try to stay dry. He's a smart one sometimes lol.
