Christmas Spirit.

Tomorrow is Dec 1st and I still do not have one single Xmas decoration up. I hope to get some done this weekend. There is so much stuff to put up and set up. It seems a waste it you get it up too late. The last few years have been warm so the outside decorations were easy. It is supposed to snow tomorrow

I can not get to much done alone either. I need Chris to be home to help move the TV and furniture ect. Some of the first things to go out are the Christmas bearfoots, so all the furniture needs to be in place. All the regular bearfoots need to hibernate for the holidays. For any one who does not know what a bearfoot is I will post a few pics.

Not such a nice day for a swim

Yesterday was a bit sunny, but I would not say that it was a great day for a swim. Allie thought other wise I guess. While I was cleaning out some of the pond filters, she decided to go into the larger pond. She swam to the edge, looked a little shocked and got out. Then in her confusion of what the heck was that, she wandered and fell into the smaller pond.

She got out ok but was shaking a bit. So in the house we went for a nice warm bath and a towel dry. Hopefully she will know what to water looks like the next time. She still may need another bath since she still has somewhat of a pond smell.

Later Emma and her hiked it around the block

Hope everyone has a great thanksgiving. Allie followed Emma around the block all the way the other day. A nice long walk for her. It has been raining like crazy here since yesterday, in fact, we broke a record. Now it has turned to Snow flurries. I guess it was a good thing that it was not all snow.

Today's menu.
1 pumpkin-peanut soup
2 Turkey with gravy
3. mashed potatoes
4. fried corn with sour cream and beacon bits (southern favorite)
5. stuffing
6 rolls
7. Pumpkin and pecan pie

DOGS

Allie has been in the house for almost a week now. I am very happy that Emma is adjusting better than thought she would. Allie is even starting to right over her back with little reaction.

She is also in the biting stage, in fact my ear was a bit bloody last night. Good thing there were some left over spider man bandages in the medicine chest. She is also not as scared to go outside, although she still does not like it much. I do have her taking a "pee" ever time she hits the grass the first time. She likes to follow Emma around outside, and I think Emma ever likes it. Tequila has adjusted well and will play with and swat her. Josie on the other hand, will come into the same room but is not to thrilled to have Allie around.

First Snow

Saw the first snow flakes of the season today :( Just a few flakes but that was enough. Winter is on the way!!!!!!

Kauai OCT 2007 up and Running

What do you know, the page is online earlier than planned!!!! I also have a new bear video about ready to go, that link should be up tomorrow. I also will be working hard over the next few days to introduce the newest member of the family...... A NEW TRAVEL BUDDY I HOPE.....

I am trying to decide if I should just make a new page for all the stuff other than travel or just have different links. I need to consider how much space every thing will eventually take up on the computer.

Emma Dog

There are some new pics of emma from oct on the some favorite picutures link.
About 75% of the kauai site is ready to go. I hope to have it on line by sat at the latest. Keep checking back.

Trying to hold on

The last few blooms in the garden. They may be weak but they are still trying to hold on. Nov 11,2007

Missing Summer Already

It is only Nov 5th and already we are missing the warm weather. Now that we are on standard time it is already getting dark at 440pm. It is cold and damp out with light rain. So Hear I sit in front of the fire place with a hot cup of coffee. Boy is it going to be a long winter. They are calling for some snow this week. Will keep you posted and see what happens.

I hope to get some energy to work on the hawaii web page this week some time.
