Only critters now.

After much ado about everything for the last few years, the backyard crew finally packed up their tools and remaining construction materials and left. For a variety of reasons, the whole project has been riddled with delays, setbacks and change, so I can imagine they are just as relieved as I am to see the end of it.

The neighborhood cat is thrilled, coming to hunt and avail himself of the soft, fresh earth in the two large, unplanted flower beds. I can live with that – his activities don’t need my supervision 😆
