Nice day today, visited the farmers market, got a lovely dozen doughnuts from @roanokecoffee (banana pudding, Arnold Palmer, peaches and cream, chocolate frosted, vanilla bites) also some pretzels and bagels from @blacksburgbagels and some peaches from @monkeysfreshfruitandveggies . the heat there about wiped me out.

Drove a bit, and came home for a rest and a nap.

We regathered with the family and had a nice spot of Chinese food followed by the final episode of Endeavour.

Banded tussock moth

Mystery solved, the bug we saw last night is a banded tussock moth. It looks like a bit like a golden version of a rosy maple moth when it flies!

Lucky for it, Pearl observed from the other side of the glass.
