madison part 1

the big tree on the side of dan's mom's house had to come down. i guess it had a huge beehive inside it. YUK!

the large groundhog (or is it a beaver or a goofer???) trying to dig into dan's mom's house, right through the foundation!

i love black-eyed susans, maybe i'll plant some in the spring...

look how many rings that big old tree had!

the official home of groundcat. (it's even on the historical registry! not for being the home of groundcat, but for being over 100 years old.)
