This week’s favorite thing to dislike: horses! I promise to take a video of this sort of thing because, especially when Chipley is concerned, it is pretty wild! He doesn’t like big animals while Cocoa thinks they are so coooooool. That’s the result of her Dog School 101 training.

Silhouetted and waiting to go up into the mountains for the day, these two share a Valentine’s moment together.

PJ, the kitty, found a fun place to sit and watch the snow on Saturday morning.

Last week, I decided to stop and photograph an old abandoned mill that has attracted my attention for a long time. The late afternoon sun was perfect so I took these two photos. I would love to see what the walls and floors look like inside this building.
