Happy Thanksgiving!

I’m pleased to say that it’s Thanksgiving once again. The snow had been on the ground here at the farm, but has melted considerably due to a welcomed warm-weather period.

I watched the National Dog Show on television today and was pleased that the Whippet made it to the finals in Best of Show. Since the arrival of our new Whippet puppy, I have fallen in love with the breed!

I wish you all a happy and peaceful day.


Lately I have been watching squirrels run around in the great outdoors, trying desperately to gather enough pinecones for winter. They are so cute. One red squirrel in particular seems to think that it is necessary to bury pinecones in multiple nests and then transport them back and forth as she sees fit!

Here's a photo I took of a red squirrel who has decided to live near our house.
