Invasion!

        When Lisa and I were visiting Nelson in Columbus, OH., this summer, he showed us some beautiful bowls he'd made from boxelder wood. The wood is light with streaks of cranberry color. Boxelder trees are plentiful around here and with them come boxelder bugs.

     Boxelder bugs are invading The Little House. How do they get in?  They annoyed Joanne and some years there are more of them, like this year. They are benign and do not bother me. Harmless critters so I just move them out of me way and leave them in peace. Kaia is not so benevolent and they seldom survive her attention.

     Imagine how placid a life it is when boxelder bugs are the news of the day!

Takk for alt,

Al
