so far things are ok. still sore, but took she who must be obeyed shopping for some exercise walking around the store.
by the time i got back to the truck my right hip and right ankle were on fire....and mom had ran out of gas. by the time i hit the highway 1/4 mile away, she was sound asleep in the passenger seat.

Weird thing happened last night or early this morning. One of the bird suet feeders disappeared. Was hanging 6' from the ground. It's gone off the hook and not anywhere on the ground.
Squirrels can't climb the pole. Who would be tall enough to grab it?

Wonder about that, Tom. There haven't been any sightings in the area. (That I know of). Other suet next to where the missing one was has not been disturbed.
Don't see any tracks.
