From My Higher Place
I cannot know what this time, this circumstance, a loss, a gain is going to mean to the entirety of my life. Why do I waste so much time resisting my circumstances instead of looking with eyes that see neither negative or positive but just go ahead and live each moment as though it is…
Trail Ride Time
I’m in such a strange place. When haven’t I been? But this is perplexing in its uniqueness to my usual strangeness. I don’t want to be on my computer any more than I have to lately. I try to write, edit photos, read email, catch up with people but just the sitting down at my computer…
Taking Advantage of Fresh Snow
I took a mental health day today. Besides, I knew snow was coming and it would have been awful trying to get to work today. Java and I went back to the park where we had gone for the skijoring clinics last weekend, and not a soul was there. Makes sense since it was still…
Ups and Downs
Everything is funny as long as it is happening to somebody else. –Will Rogers My fence passed inspection today – Yeh! While working on switching out a rotting deck railing and missing flashing between my deck and house, my contractor discovered that the deck was not properly attached to the house — like no rim…
Swollen Lips and Rapping Dairy Farmers

City Deer and Luke Rocks!

At least she was good for 5 seconds! I can’t even get my dogs to sit and stay for half a second! Aussies!
Love the picture!
Is it a bad thing all around if she chases them?
Mary…you sure have a very beautiful set up! I hope you can find a way to keep all your animals.
Paint Girl – Java tries. She really needs a playmate more her size.
Ari – It’s tempting to let her play. My horses aren’t afraid of her and will only warn her if she starts to bug them. The problem comes if she’s ever around other horses. They might try to kick her and the horses’ owners might night be too thrilled either. Some people will shoot a dog that chases their animals.
Lori – I can keep the cat, dog, and one horse, but I can’t afford the board and care of two horses. I’ll keep both until the house sells anyway.
