Watered the plants...

And found this little critter (in the picture) chilling out on the tomato cage with no tomato in it. My first thought is that it's a young grasshopper. Any entomologists out there that know otherwise? It's definitely warm out there--closer to hot. I've done that, and now it's a little after noon, so after I post this I'll eat lunch and then sort some laundry to wash tonight. Hope all is well with you in your part of myLot land!

I think it might be a katydid. And thanks for reminding me to water my plants.
