Boo! 38 degrees
Early to work today, training... I often wonder where my 6'foot leather leash, training collar and treats are. Humans are not really trained the and lulled or conjoled into another way of thinking.
I have recently in a round about way connected with a sporting dog judge that I went High In Trial under in 1987! She co-owns a dog from Heads Up Kennel. We will be getting a pup from them in January. A trip I am not looking forward to that time of year as they are in BC!
As of late, living on a ranch and in a 100 yr old house, and the time of year the mice have decide to share residance, NOT! I am at a total of 4 in the stone storage room that stores my canned goods. No damage as I am always on the lookout for them there. 2 adult males, 1 adult female and 1 juv. female, at least they were and are longer are....
Well off to work, thanks for being here Blog....

Good morning! 10/30/2012 cloudy but warm
I really need to figure out the picture thing on here! I would love to share some pics.
I had 9 Cat Spiders this year on the front porch. One has laid her egg sac under the eaves. That has never happen before. She is very thin and frail looking but when I gently blow on her each morning she is still alive. The others are still nice and fat but really no bugs to speak of for them to feed on. I do still leave the porch lights on for awhile at night just in case a flying insect comes through. It will all unfold as it is meant and I am lucky enough to watch their story.
Lately our little town in the Oregon outback has sent some young men home. One a few weeks ago leaving 5 children and a wife. One on Sat. night. Another a month ago, he was a Grandfather and father. 2 on the same stretch of road. The one on Sat. night left us not but 100 yards or less from where the Grandfather that passed lived! The 2 young men and their families were deeply rooted in their faith of God. Such a blessing... I have known both since they were wee folk.... Tears for those left behind.
Question of the day:
When those grieving are inundated with food which then becomes its own stressor what to bring?

Burns, Oregon 10/29/2012 60 degrees and windy.....
OK, 1,2,3 blog easy? Really? I got this far I guess, so YEAH!
After 8 days in the forest, no elk, rats! Thank goodness there is a pig in the barn and a butcher steer on the way. There is always eggs and chickens.
Yesterday while picking up the leaves I found a dandelion, in full bloom. I think they are pesky but reminded me of how yellow, yellow can be. I had an idea and I think it will work out great. I used the leaves for flooring in the chicken coop and spread them around the chicken yard. Last year the winter side of the chicken yard produced a nice crop of banana and Hubbard squashes this summer. All by accident but don't we learn from those? When I move the chickens next year to the summer yard after it floods will be planting a few of my own squash in that winter pen. Good job girls and thanks for the squash!
Question of the Day:
Do you think that when we die we are just going home?
