Lettuce in the Grow Tower

This years lettuce is growing very well and some of the leaves are already finding themselves onto sandwiches of all kinds!

This home grown lettuce is so tasty. It is never as crunchy as store bought but the flavor is night and day in comparison!

Brown Thrasher Babies

It has been a few weeks since the Brown Thrashers laid their three egg and yesterday when I took a peek I saw this.

Three little Mohawk warriors.

Upon closer inspection I could see the egg tooth. I will monitor their progress!

Men’s Steak Night

We had a steak night at South Tampa Fellowship last evening. I really enjoyed it and it appeared to me most everyone else did as well.

It was a great time of informal fellowship with a refreshingly relaxed atmosphere! In short it was very worthwhile in my book!

Fragile Life

I am resigning myself to the fact there will be no Screech Owls fledging in the front yard this year. After the owl house was entered and an egg broken and removed by a mystery creature the ants came. I tried to intervene but to avail.

The remaining two eggs were too damaged to withstand the ants.

The beginning of us all in this world of the dying, like our common origin bears a familiar appearance. God is the master of all things. I am awestruck by this little embryo Owl that had been developing in a box in a tree just outside my window.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
(John 1:1-4)

Thank you for following this little adventure. I am sad it has ended this way.
