Yardwork!
I wanted to share this image of a praying mantis I found in our yard the other day. Cool looking guy, isn’t he? Anyways, today our yard will be undergoing a facelift (*knock on wood*) — the landscaping crew should be bringing in at least 80 yards of topsoil, plus 10 tons or so of rocks for the retaining wall. It will be interesting!
