 <\/p>\n

HOME, SWEET HOME<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Troutsfarm yard and gardens, a place we like to be. Good thing, because we are still hunkered down.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

GOOD EATING<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a> \u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We like beets and Camille prefers salad for breakfast. There are plenty more food and garden photos at: Good Eating<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

JORDAN LAKE<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0 \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When we aren’t at home, we are usually exploring: Jordan Lake<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

OFFICE UPGRADE<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a> \u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Bob replaced the sticky old blinds in his back room office with its view beyond our crepe myrtles of Fred and Reda’s yard.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

NATURE FREAKS<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0 \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We never tire of critter watching. See what we saw at: Nature Freaks<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

AROUND THE YARD<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0 \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The beauty and the beast. Camille takes on another fire ant nest while fragrant cloud perfumes our back yard. See more at: Around the Yard<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

HEY HEY AND RO RO<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a> \u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When we heard that our friends had purchased an old plantation house, we loaded a housewarming present into the trunk of our Chevy Volt and drove up for a tour. We were not disappointed. More at: Caroline and Heyward<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

CAMILLE’S BIRTHDAY PRESENT<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

An early gift from Bob and a treasure which will bring us joy for many years. We added two lenses (a 16-50, and a 55-210) and a second camera body (an a6400) to round out our options. Stay tuned.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

COOKIE’S DELIGHT<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a> \u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Camille investigates the new camera gear while Bob tries out the new camera. Our life will never be the same.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

RETIREMENT PLAN<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a> \u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now that we’ve purchased our front porch rockers, Bob is free to call it a day. Let the spitting and lie-telling begin!<\/p>\n
