Dogs, skunks, rain and Easter

Interesting day today. Butch was sprayed at by a skunk. Thankfully it wasn't a full on hit. Joe didn't realize it was a skunk, and thought he just rolled in "poo". I came home from work and oh, no. It was worse than poo. Butch got a lovely bath. He's very unhappy about it. When he gets over himself, I'll cut his nails and then he'll really be out of sorts.

We are having a full fledged spring thunderstorm. Very exciting. Especially when I got home and every window in the house was open, and - you guessed it - raining inside almost as much as outside. It hailed on the way home from work, and there was a nice little pile of hail stones in my hammock. I wish I had taken a photo of it.

Yesterday I finished a planter I was making. I finished it, put in a rose bush and some vinca vines and pronounced it "good enough".










Here's a picture of the planter:


That's it for today. On to my list of things to accomplish before Easter...
