It was a dark and stormy night, which provided perfect cover for a midnight raid by equines that decimated our two half-barrels of strawberry plants. But they were kind enough to leave one berry for each of us, for which we are very thankful.About four days ago we were ready to harvest the dozen or so rock-hard little pears off the tree that I have nursed since spring. Karla went to the tree and came back with the accusation that I had already picked them. Nope. The raccoons had picked them. I guess we could make the area around the house into a fortress to keep the horses, raccoons, pigs, rats, and those horrible little leaf-eating finches at bay.
Give me vegan rattlesnakes any day!
