It did rain here, today, which was wonderful, the last rain having been experienced more than 6 months ago. We can use more.
I will leave you with a pretty picture for now.
It is the Sturgeon River which snakes through the Sturgeon County here. The largest animal I've run into is a moose, the prickliest was a porcupine family. The beaver I can see about on 50% of the evenings. Coyotes are everywhere because of the nearby poultry farms. Sometimes they howl in packs nearby. I don't know if that's safe or not, but I've walked down there for 20 years. Somebody once suggested, it should be safer with my border collie along. Somehow, I could not imagine that. She was such an easily scared dog. When the coyotes howled she would press right in on me and start with a deep, gutteral growl, with her head held low. It seemed kind of primeval. Or she would sit back with the head up and howl straight into the air, like a wolf.

What a beautiful photo!
That looks like the perfect place for coyotes to hang out!
Wow! Moose, beavers, porcupines...I once saw a pink flamingo around here...but on closer examination, it was plastic.
Hoffentlich die Sendepause ist sehr kurz; Wir warten, begeistert auf deine Rückkehr!
Nice view from your property.
Thanks guys for always encouraging. But I seriously have to try and cut back some. The wedding is maybe about 10 weeks away. I started a job. I put on another 5 pounds over the winter... AAAHHHH! (screaming).
Gary you must find some time to come out with your family; send me some dates.
