Please Feed Skipper

Alison just pointed out to me I can feed my fish. Just click the canister bottom left which has food in it, and move it and drop in food. He was very excited to get food! What a bad pet owner I am, didn't know I had to feed my virtual pet!

Thanks to my neighbor Darla, we have this nice garden of vinca vines. Several years ago she gave me some of these plants, I guess she knew I couldn't kill them. They are low
maintenance and have look pretty good this summer. And they do have violet flower when blooming.

This picture was taken in 1982. So the field cultivator in the background is at least 23 years old and I think the 4 wheel drive tractor is the still on the job too.
