Farm Sanctuary, garden slugs, and getting healthy

In order to conserve gas and to stay fit, I decided to walk to and from my daughter's, instead of driving, to feed the fish, etc. Level ground the first half mile; uphill climb the second half. Going back down works the leg muscles, too. I was pleased that I didn't need to stop to catch my breath. So, by 8:30 A.M. I already had a 2-mile walk under my belt!
The slugs? Set a "beer trap" in the ground yesterday and this morning there were 6-7 slugs in it! Fewer chewed-on flowers this morning. Yay! Dorothy the fish is still looking good this morning. I think this "diet" is working - she's much more active and seemed thinner today.

I did attend the 4th of July Pignic at Farm Sanctuary in Watkins Glen, NY. Loved the wide open spaces, the tranquility, the animals and the free food. Farm Sanctuary now has bed and breakfast cabins available.


I walked out behind my place to the river and watched the fireworks upstream. Better view, less sound and much smaller crowd. Happy 4th, America!
