Today is the inaugural Saturday of the 2010 outdoor farmer’s market in Bloomington. The stalls weren’t quite as full as they normally are, and instead of produce and vegetables there were lots of flowers.

Sarah and I took a walk in the woods near our apartment tonight … and saw a coyote. It spotted us immediately, considered us, then slinked off into the woods. I barely had time to get my camera out and snap this picture as it made its getaway. At first, we thought maybe it was just a dog – but its appearance, behavior, and tracks certainly confirm that it was a coyote.

April 1. Cleaned the grill today (which was quite a process) so I could make this delicious steak. I got the meat from the farm and used a spice mix Sarah made the other night with various kinds of peppercorn, fennel and coriander.

March 31. These bunnies have been appearing around the apartment every night, but are quite elusive. I’ve been trying to get a picture of one for a while, and this is the best I could manage.

March 30. Really? An emergency exit?
