Fall Has Arrived
by Seasonsgirl
It’s finally feeling like fall around here. The trees are changing and the temperatures are cooler. It’s been great for walks, porch sitting in the evening with a cup of coffee, and just being outside. The boys have really enjoyed being outside and exploring. Even our old man Baxter who is 14 now and having trouble waking at times wants to be out exploring … Read More Fall Has Arrived

The Trees…
by Seasonsgirl
I thought I would share with you some of the trees that are blooming in our yard now. The road we live on has a few beautiful trees on it, but people always seem to stop out from our house and take pictures of our trees every year. Our fullest tree is this cherry blossom… we love the color and abundance of the blossoms. … Read More The Trees…

Woodland Friends

While on my trip I came across some woodland friends… I remember seeing the movie Bambi for the first time. I can remember most of my first experiences with Disney movies and I bet most of you can as well. You can remember the characters, what you felt, and what your impression was of the movies as a child. Funny when you watch them … Read More Woodland Friends

So humid… animals not happy… people not happy either
by Seasonsgirl
The last 3 days it has been so humid that when I go out to take care of the animal or work in the garden I come back in looking like I just stepped out of the shower. The chickens are lazy and not laying eggs much. The dogs are lazy inside… Not the dog days of summer because the dogs don’t like the … Read More So humid… animals not happy… people not happy either

The baby chicks have been getting out more now that it is warm enough and are learning many new things.

Snow Dogs on the Hunt

Our boys love to play in the snow especially when you are out with them. They love to run in any wide open space and find new places to explore. Our Chase is pretty intrigued when he is around any barn and is always trying to sniff out the critters. He is usually on high alert during these times not wanting to miss a … Read More Snow Dogs on the Hunt
