Our shaggy superstar Charlotte just hit double digits! 🎉 To celebrate her 10th birthday, Charlotte was treated to a birthday feast fit for a muskox queen: a giant “10” made of her favorite maple and willow browse, plus a frosty pile of ice and juicy watermelon treats to keep her cool and content.

Such a pretty purple & green potted display. I've been doing hard work in the garden for hours. My front hillside has very old & established vinca, trees, & rhododendron was invaded by the neighbor's ivy. They tore it out. I'm carefully scaling the hill untangling & pulling ivy now. #gardening #ivy
