This & That

Danielle is playing in a fall volleyball league. It's more of an instructional league than a competitive one. She's doing this instead of playing in the rec league she usually plays in in the fall. She'll have try-outs for club volleyball next month. Today was their first game day. It was nice watching her play again. She has so much potential.

After a few weeks of no chipmunks, 2 have started visiting again. One of them is either stupid or bold. He doesn't seem to be afraid of Clara and runs across the patio while we're out. I don't think either of them are living in the patio at this point, so I'm just trying to pretend I don't see them. Apparently Clara is doing the same thing.

Here is a caterpillar in his "j". I now have 6 in chrysalises, 1 in a "j", and one very hungry caterpillar. We have certainly done our part in helping the monarch population this summer!
