Mark has been working on a final project for statistics. He also helped set up the online final for the course he TA’s for. He continues to check his cameras at the bird refuge too. It’s fun to see some of the footage he gets!
Tuesday was our niece’s sixteenth birthday and her family planned a surprise drive by party for her. We drove up and rolled down the window to say hello and they even gave out hostess cupcakes.
We began planting our garden this week! We didn’t realize the outside water wasn’t turned on until our seeds were mostly planted so Flynn and I got to run into our apartment several times with a bucket to get water. We planted potatoes, radishes, lettuce, and peas. We’re looking forward to planting more when it warms up.

We’ve continued to go on many walks. We saw this incredible Great Horned Owl in the cemetery one evening. We stay in touch with family and friends through texting, phone calls, and Marco Polo. I’m grateful for technology to stay in touch with everyone.

Mark was home this Saturday which was so nice!! He did get to go help my brother check some bee traps in the afternoon. My brother is hoping to add to his beehive and Mark enjoys helping him with his bees occasionally.
