Me & Baby Goat

Here is the very first time (and last time) I've had the opportunity to feed a baby goat. Aren't you impressed? I only share this with my dearest friends :-)

Robin & Phil

Me and my sweetie, husband, and best friend. Here we are at the very top of Clingman's dome (in the Smoky Mountains Nat'l Park) summer 03. We're just a "tad" winded, but proud to have made it all the way up!

Joseph

My son, last summer 02, looking rather whimsical out the door of the cabin where we stayed for vacation. Anyone ever hear of Roaring River State Park in Missouri? That's where we were. Good trout fishing, if you're into that.

Jeff

My step son is checking out his new camera gear. Quite a zoom lens, huh? Me, well, I buy the little disposable cameras and call it good. Sad, huh?

Our log home

Yep, we've been working on it four years now. My, time flies when you're having fun. Only a couple more years and we should have it done...only to start remodeling, I'm sure!

Ursula

He's keeping watch over the front porch. Dog patrol, you know. Ursula is actually a male kitty, but we thought he was a she when he was a tiny kitten. Well, what can I say...the name just stuck. He doesn't seem to mind anyway. His main mission in life is to EAT!

Salem

Salem has it all together. Wish I could relax like he can, don't you? You should see him snuggled up to Allen (the Gold Retriever, remember?). We could all learn a lot about life from this gentle soul.

Roy & Hargrove

These two little dogs were abandoned at a house trailer down the road from us. They lived on a road called Roy Hargrove (thus the names). Anyway, we've tried for three months to find them a suitable home. Looks like ours is going to be their new "suitable" home. The more the merrier, as "they" say! Anyone want a sweet little dog or two? :-)

Woody

Woody was born in a giant construction woodpile on our property almost three years ago. My husband had to cut the piled up tree limbs away to rescue Woody and his four sibling puppies. They were fat and healthy, thanks to a good mama dog. All were adopted. Of course, you know who adopted Woody. Lucky guy, huh?

In this picture, Woody is trying out for He-Haw!

Allen

A couple of years ago, Allen was a star "reindeer" in the Christmas parade in Jackson, representing the Humane Society. I met him while stopping at PetSmart to get a collar for Woody one Saturday. Well, it was love at first sight, and he's been with us ever since.

BTW, he's doing his Jackie Chan impression for us in this picture.
