August is awesome around here. It still gets hot, but it also means that there is an abundance of fresh apples, pears, blackberries, wild plums and other stuff. Fruit just falls to the ground which means I don't have to buy groceries!
So picture catch up from the past couple weeks.

Ben tries to follow him around. Which isn't hard because Manolo usually hangs out by Ben. |

Those dang chickens. We grew a watermelon! And of course the chickens couldn't stay away |
He doesn't like them as much as Manolo |
These watermelons are orange on the inside. And we think they taste like cucumber. Ben likes them. I like them in a salad. |
