Rosoe tips the scales at 103 and hes fairly skinny. Biggest feet anybody has ever seen on a dog. I call him Goofy because there's a strong resemblance. Dog people I know think he's a Lab Bloodhound mix.
Both cats died last year, the daughter moved out, the bunny just died and Roscoe has about a year to live. Large breeds like him usually live to be `11 or 12. He's 12.

That's the trigger for selling the house and moving to town.

I've done my share for the animals of the world. I want to wake up one morning and not have to feed the livestock.

No chickens when you move to town? Or is it one of those "chickens okay" towns?

We have a 10 acre spread, okay for limited numbers of livestock but pretty much anything goes. But we are about three minutes away from supermarkets, pizza, and Mexican food.

Mine were 30 pounds when they were three months old. Now everybody is at least 65 pounds and that's the runt. We've got a shepard/ridgeback mix you could throw a saddle on and ride around the ranch. He's a sweetheart but has a basso-profundo bark that would soil any burglar's pants.

Karen's brother had a Rott who barked like that.
And yes, it was pretty frightening.
But Socks was just a big ole tub o'love deep down.
I'm sure he would give his life to defend the family but he was not a trained watchdog, as I was able to stare him down the very first time I laid eyes on him and he had no idea who we were.

He started in with the ROWR ROWR WOOF WOOF business and then suddenly he was all wiggles and submission. Danny was embarrassed! ROTFMOL

Oh, so you won't ever invite a non-pet lover over? You... you... anti-non-pet-lover-racist or something!

mad


Please take COVID-19 seriously; don't panic but don't deny it; practice social distancing (stay 6ft from people); wash your hands a lot, don't touch your face, don't gather with too many people, so that you help us contain it.

Went back to the cabin today, mostly for an outing but also to see if the 12 year old linseed oil with Japan drier I put on two weeks ago actually cured out. It did, so I brushed a coat on several more courses of logs and did some foam backing in readying for the inside chinking. The aspen trees I transplanted from suckers brought from Idaho ten years ago are 20 feet tall and getting their spring leaves - very pretty - and a dozen new suckers are growing. It will be a wonderful grove in a few more years.

Came home and fixed some pulled pork tacos and Mother's Day Mojitos to eat on the front porch. Nice little thunderstorm and rain going on right now. Smells good!


You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.

It turns out that chickens and wheelchairs are not such a good match. If you have chickens, chickensh*t is unavoidable. Chickensh*t on your tires is bad form.
