Regarding The Yeller Snow

That was from our Border Collie, Blaze. See the dog print?

I was outside with my camera and he just stopped right in front of me and did his business.

It went perfectly with The Ol’ Hermit’s sayin’… and that is good advice!

Didn’t mean to gross anyone out.

 

Blessings,

Denese

After breaking the umpteenth pair of bootlaces this year:

“Ain’t nothin’ made right no more. When I was growin’ up, we used groundhog hide -groundhog hide makes the best bootlaces. We’d skin ‘im out and tack the hide up on the smokehouse; when we needed some laces we’d go cut us off a strip.”

“What’d we do with the rest of the groundhog? We eat ‘im!”
