No place like home

I’m starting to feel like I’m really, truly back.

Went to the office for the first time this afternoon, where I was greeted with a lovely “welcome home” message and had a chance to connect with team members I haven’t seen for two months.

But I really knew I was back when I glanced down and saw this humongous spider on the floor by my desk. We hardly saw a spider in two months of living in Sacramento, but we’re definitely back in the country now!

A grape-loving coyote

Who knew that coyotes liked grapes? I certainly didn’t!

Which is why I was pretty surprised when I looked out the window this morning to see this guy scarfing down grapes that had fallen to the ground.

Well, the grapes hadn’t just fallen; they were helped by some critter (probably a bear) that has been climbing up into the tree to reach the grapevines.

Yep, we’re definitely in the country here.
