Ah, Summer Has Arrived….

'Bring on that cocktail! Where's the suntan lotion? What's a guy got to do to get service around here?'

Yawn. 'Time to flip, avoid those tan lines. Hey, buddy, got nuts?'

Picture Summertime ('and the livin' is easy…) sung to the sight of a squirrel enjoying the roof of his condo. 

Forgive me for posting something that has nothing to do with knitting or even travel. No, this bit is about squirrels. My squirrel. Or, actually, I'm his person. You see, my house is an extended resort for a certain tree-living rodent. True, feeding him doesn't help but it's still a shock to awake from a winter's hibernation to find your barbecue turned into squirrel condo.  Nothing is less appetizing that a two-foot pile of leaves and squirrel pickings so we evicted ourselves and turned over the keys. Now the tenant lies about in the sun relaxing
