Meet Mister Mantis

Home again and updating the blog again. I had planned on making my next post about how I finished my ebook or showing some video from the last Day Trippers gig, but both of those have a bit more work before they’re ready.

But then today I worked from home and got a good number of random tasks off my plate in my lunch hour, including an overdue round of yardwork that I didn’t get to last weekend. In the afternoon I noticed we had a very cool visitor. A giant praying mantis, over 6” long, was hanging out on my back door. I’ve never seen one of these in my neighborhood. He stayed all day, let me approach him quite closely, and was still there when I shut the curtain for the night. We’ll see if he’s there in the morning.

Also looks like the Day Trippers may have another gig in October. I’ll keep you posted.
