Lares Domestici

This is what duct tape looks like on a water pump. This particular application of tape is only about 25 years old and it's beginning to show its age. If you click on it you can find any number of faces etc., depending on your imagination, and ilk. In fact it's possible that it is the Iowa Vortex. This particular pump has been known to spew water even during the summer. But even with this undisputed evidence of a miracle, the duct tape is beginning to show wear. We can only assume that the Lares Domestici of the farm are giving us gardening omens.

Perhaps I'll catch a squirrel and divine the portents.
