And Then There were Four

 My step daughter just had baby number four in a bit over five years.  We got to go down and assist with what is a delightful group of kiddos.  Walker is now five, Savannah is now 3, Robby Bobby (yes you say both names) is 19 months, and little Ethan is now 11 days old.

Oxford, MS is a blue dot in a blood red state.  It was so refreshing to see so many homes flying the new Magnolia state flag, rid, finally, of the Confederate cross flag insert.  And it is a college town, with great food and culture.  The Pandemic has closed some businesses, but opened others, and the newest addition is a lovely little organic store near my step daughter's home, The Chicory Market.  It reminded me of Marczyk's in Denver, but even smaller.

Their lot is double sized, 3/4 of an acre with a wooded area and creek at the back.  I found some ringless honey mushrooms and turkey tail, but a third tick of the season found me.  :)  Treating it with prophylactic doxycycline today.
