LOST COLLIE (No Not Jake!)

Please help! Anyone who reads my blog and lives in Texas!

Look out for anyone that has found a tri-colored male collie with a big white collar.

Honey Tree King jumped his yard fence NEW YEARS because of the neighbors fireworks.He is still gone so the family that owns and loves him is in distress. Not to mention how we are worried about poor King.

If you know of someone that suddenly has a new big black collie since new years, please help find out if he is our King. Please help the Rose Family get back their collie. He can be anywhere in Texas by now.

Leave a comment if you have seen or heard anything, Thank you!

Blue Sky...

I hadn't blogged in a day or two and thought Ekk...I need to take a photo so I can post it, lol...So what better than the beautiful blue sky we had today...

I was actually playing with the camera...we had about 1/10th of an inch of rain the other day...maybe not even that but the grass started coming up...and it's green, lol...So I took my life into my own hands and laid down out in the pasture and took the photo above...Thank goodness no fire ants but the sticker burrs got me, OUCH!

Then I rolled over onto my back and saw the comtrail from this jet flying over and thought cool...Not sure at the time if the photo would turn out or not as I was using my 28-105mm lens, but it didn't come out too bad...at least I thought it was cool...and the jet was up there pretty darn high too...

We are all doing well and love having Grammy here...Michael is being spoilt getting extra attention...Today him and Grammy were playing Helicopter attack, lol...and No I didn't think about getting a photo, ekk...She reads him his bedtime books, which he loves...and if Momma is busy and he needs something he just runs to Grammy (Thanks MOM!)...She is a person who loves to play games and Michael loves that...(I'm not too much of a game person)...

Michael is adjusting to school after 2 weeks off...Monday afternoon/evening was rough and he was Mr. Grouch but he's getting better and looking forward to the weekend already, lol...He's really improved on all his school work and lessons and I am very proud of him...For the rest of the year they are working on preparing the kinders for 1st grade, Yea!! Now lets just hope Michael will pass and move on...

A visit from "Bugs"...

I spotted this little guy last week, late at night, under the bird feeders but he scampered off before I could even attempt a photo...Well tonight he was back and I am assuming because it is sooo Darn Cold that he decided eating was more important that running from me...

I wasn't sure if I could get a photo...not sure my on board flash would reach far enough or if I could get the focus clear enough...Below is my attempt...His eyes reacted to the flash. I tried to fix the eyes in PSE but they looked awful so I just left them...

My dilemma was what is he...Certainly not a Jack Rabbit...and that is all I've seen around here...I've seen cotton tails up North but this guys Ears were so darn big...and he was pretty big for a cotton tail too...Well I found out something new tonight while researching rabbits in Texas...There are 3 different types...Cotton tail, Swamp rabbit and Jack rabbit...

I am thinking he is a Swamp rabbit...but then I may be wrong too...Maybe the cotton tails down here are bigger than their Northern cousins...So John W. can you help me out with this, lol...My Mother thought he might have been a baby Jack Rabbit but his ears aren't long enough...

I'm actually stunned that he actually stayed put while I took photos...I took 3 and this was the best out of the bunch...

I want to thank all of you that are with me in spirit (cough, cough) while I do my Morning walk...I thought about y'all this morning while I took a walk on the cold side...40 degrees F. It wasn't bad until I started walking into the wind...brrrr....I walked 2 miles and took 3725 steps...Tomorrow I won't be able to go for my morning walk so I expect y'all to do it for me and think of me while your doing it, LOL.....MWA!!
