    We picked him up on the way home from a conference where I got to hear one of my heroes speak---E.O. Wilson, so he is named Wilson. We like scientist names for our dogs.

    No doubt a fawn that was born late last year. We had 3 of them hanging around all winter and they weren't much bigger than some of the neighborhood dogs. But then, for the last several years we've seen fawns born in August. Never used to see that but now getting more common. That does not leave much time for growth before winter sets in. This winter? No problems for them except for dogs and coyotes.

    Great pics Loon. The many years I coached hockey the one thing I always enjoyed while traveling the roads in Canada were the older stone houses, each one seemed a bit different in looks.

    I always think Canada preserves their older buildings & houses better than the United States.

    Thanks zap, think i mentioned before that the original house was built back in the 1850s there abouts and the limestone was taken from their property, which sounded like a major chore for sure ;)

    Coyotes are a big problem here Dennis..

    Same over here Loon, went to breakfast then for a ride,pushed in a couple loads of Cherry then hooked the plow up to the old green truck(hope to sell) so I never made it back in the woods.

    The wind did cut right through you, looks like the trees will have to wait until next week.

    How many are clearing the trees at the cemetary? Looks like a nice day for working, are you going to burn the Poplar?

    Beautiful Pyr! Where we walk we see 2 Pyrs, a boy who's very suspicious of strangers/strange dogs and a girl who's sweet as pie (they walk together). Would love to figure a way to get a picture of all 4 dogs together - white Pyrs and black Newfs - do people tell you all the time they've seen "black ones"? Cause I get the "white ones" comment all the time with the Newfs. ;)
