You know you had a good time on your birthday when you don’t get to blog about it until a week later! My day started normally enough until I got to the office where a very interesting box awaited me on my desk. Given it’s dimensions, I was a tad apprehensive that my day was …
I thought that I would share a few random photos from my day.
I took Malcolm and Micheal down to the creek today for their walk. Meara and Weezy were originally excited by the idea but quickly changed their minds when they understood just how cold the wind was. The snow from yesterday has stuck around making the cold seem appropriate. It also causes the landscape to appear …
So, Christmas is fast approaching. For anyone not believing me, just go into any department store and check-out the Christmas displays and music piping from the ceilings.

We live in a lovely place that gives us the opportunity to take our dogs for a walk every day in wonderful field up the road. Every day I see things that I wish I were a better photographer to be able to capture. Today was the swallows. They may have been back for a …
For all of the new members of the Task Force, we’ve made a cheat sheet for surveillance purposes. This is, for all intents and purposes, a cast of characters seen entering and leaving The Old Chapel.
