The End
Hickory....take a bow!
**********************
This past weekend, we finished a landscaping project...
enlarging the gardens in the front of the house
to twice their original size.
Here is the new look:
Hubbs dug the holes, I planted and then
we watered and mulched.
So glad it is done!
- Awwww.........ewwwwww!
At least once every day I see a scene like this.Hickory spreading a little lovin' all over Maddie's face. The first time I saw this I thought, "Awwwwww, how sweet. Hickory loves Maddie"And Maddie held so still....eating up the attention.(Maddie...
- Pampered Pooches
Ok, I'll admit it.I might just go a little overboardwith our critters. I try hard to make sure that everyone is comfortablewhen the cold winter winds blow. This past weekend, temperatures dipped into the 20's.Going out to do chores in the...
- Traditions
Everyone loves traditions. You know, those things that we look forward to at specific times. Dogs are no exception to that. They, too, love traditions... rituals, if you will. Each morning, our dogs are used to the same ritual. "Viteyum time" we...
- Surprise!
Just when it seems that life might settle down....another curve ball comes screaming at you! With our recent adoption of Oakley,the wonderful Lab mix, who has turned out to be the perfect farm dog,and then this weekend's adoption of Scarlet the pony,I...
- A Treat For The Birds
Look at how attentive Sadie and Maddie are as Jack spreads peanut butter over his home-made bird feeder. He took a pine log, bore holes into it, screwed an eye-hook in the top and filled each hole with peanut butter. This creation will hang in the midst...

Hickory the Pooh and Landscaping Too!
Here is my favorite grandson,
my one and only,
the apple of my eye...
Tyler...
(sitting in my kitchen scale...
he is not that precocious,
there is a magic hand behind his back.)
with a front row seat for the re-enactment
of
"Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Jar".
The part of Winnie the Pooh
will be played by Hickory.
If you regularly read my blog,
you will remember that each morning Hubbs gives
the dogs their "vit-e-yums".
The older dogs get their arthritis meds in a bit of peanut butter.
The biggest treat of all is an empty peanut butter jar.
Maddie (our Newfie) licks and licks until it is mostly empty.
And then Hickory (our 15 year old) goes to work on it...
The rest of the story goes like this.....
Don't worry, Tyler, no animals were harmed
during the shooting of this story!
