Here is one of the "after" pics. The concrete portion has softened in color since this. I will look for a better pic from another angle. I'll tell you tho, it sure makes the back yard a hell of lot more useful!!

Squirt again. She is the cutest lil' thing. and smar as a whip!











Working on the back yard. Reference the earlier picture of "before". I know I have some completed pictures but I'll be damned if'n I can find them!

pics,pics,pics,pics


As promised many, many months ago...... Lots of pics. This is Squirt, she was dropped off by a nice lady that had rescued her from a drunken neighbor. She was 10 weeks old when we got her (maybe) and after looking for good home for several moths we have decided to keep her (mainly since we can't bear to part with her) The official line is " we have to be sure that she goes to the right home". Of course the best home for her is ours!!







Wildfire!! You have heard of all the fires here. We had a close one, the fence you see is our property line. Too close for comfort. Fortunately the wind was blowing the other way from the house and kennel and we escaped unscathed. A little too close for comfort.























I'm doing this remotely from work (check out LogMeIn.com!). It's a little slow for all these graphics. I'll post more soon...................

I'm sort of back

I wanted to share this terrific description of those morons that like to dog fight.


"It's about power and control and it appeals to people who feel insecure and insignificant and powerless in their own lives so they take it out on creatures less powerful than them by training them to be aggressive," he told the BBC News website.

"It satisfies a rather seedy bloodlust among people who often feel disenfranchised and alienated from society."

Oh ho, seems to fit the bill........................

The End (for now)

I am soooo bad about updating that I have decided to take a hiatus from blogging. Maybe for a while, may be forever..................not sure right now, sort of ambivalent (no, not that!!).
