Cult of The Beaver

Ok I got a picture of Rita!



She was root bound in her old pot from the nursery, I was happy to get her another one. Thankfully she doesn't require much light so she's good to go. I wanted to get her a terra cotta pot but there were none for her size :( I don't like plastic but I think this one is cutely colored ...

After a day of nothing special at work, Alex had a present for me!



It's a RCA Victor radio, probably from around the 40s. It is missing a knob and can't work due to outdated technology, but it's beautiful and I'm happy to have it top of my TV stand. I'll probably hit it with some wood oil and add the knob and it should be good to go!

This weekend I'm going out to Corpus Christi to pick and jelly grapes on a ranch thats a couple hundred years old, owned by a friend's family. I fully expect to have many wildlife photos to upload and, uh, grape picking, and ... Buc-Ees hauls.

You guys don't understand.

Buc-Ees is a religion here.

Get the jerky while you still can. Love the radio and I think Rita prefers her fab pot to a classier terra cotta, ugh now I want a new plant.

Beautiful plant, and super cool radio! Too bad it can't work.

Rita is beautiful and I love the color of her planter. And that radio is stunning.

Lovely plant and radio! Sounds like you're having a good week. At the risk of sounding ignorant, what are Buc-Ees?

Oh......is that what those plants are meant to look like????? I didn't realise they could look so lush. Mmmmmmm *scratches head* maybe my Rita is on the way out.....
