Yes, I was in Ada, Oklahoma, on October 30th signing Blackbirds First Flight. This was a first for me, but it made it so much easier to be doing it with my more experienced friends Stephen Bagley and Wendy Blanton. I was thrilled to get to meet fellow co-author Gail … Continue reading →
I have four ways to position the game camera when I’m monitoring outside cats. Each location presents challenges. I call this Location 1. It offers the largest field of view, but no way to tell if cats are using the doghouse or not. The cat pictured was the little calico … Continue reading →

Welcome to the October edition of the Merry Go Round Blog Tour. I’m happy you’ve decided to visit, and I hope you’ll make time to wander around (if you haven’t been a regular visitor to the site already) and make yourself at home. Our topic for this month is Writing … Continue reading →
We’re back from vacation. I picked most of the cats up this morning. Dr. Val called me last night with an update on their status. When I dropped them off, I asked them to check Delta and Floyd for urinary tract infections, and I had a couple of concerns with … Continue reading →
Most efforts this month have been focused on getting ready for the trip we’ve just returned from. We got the grass cut and trimmed everywhere that needed it. Mr. L got new plastic over the windows that needed it at the shop in preparation for keeping winter breezes from whipping … Continue reading →
