Not much inside though, few bags of random electronic parts like fuses, cables, adapters, other things like some appliances, etc. Let's make the next target easy: a cow or group of cattle.

I'm sure I could've got a pic of one of those a few weeks ago.

In VA finding a dogwood without blooms would be quite an exercise.
