The other day we got a new picnic table from Sams that folds up. The same evening we also got a new barbecuer and set it up after supper - which was eaten on our new picnic table! Beth (me), Jason, and DadWhile Dad, Jason, Jeff, and I set up the barbecuer, Mother planted some more new green bean seeds where some did not come up. Mother, straddling the bean rows and planting more.
We have always had a turtle dove couple live in our area. Some years, their nest has been in our Blue Spruce tree where we could watch the babies grow up. We understand that doves mate for life, so we figured this was the same couple year after year that spent time on our property. Last week, we found one of the doves dead by our driveway, close to the highway. Jason and Emily gave it a decent burial. After that as we have eaten on the deck several days, we noticed this lone turtledove sitting atop a telephone pole. He or she is most likely the mate of the deceased. We feel sorry for him or her.
