Alayne took this shot right after lunch, just moments after I had started mowing the dog yard in the front of the house (I was "off camera" to the right). Blind Widget was in the living room and wanted to go out to potty, so Alayne opened the door and off she went to the…

Today we hosted a wonderful crew from WMUR, the big TV station in Manchester, New Hampshire that is an ABC affiliate. They were here to do a feature story for WMUR's popular magazine show, New Hampshire Chronicle. We spent several hours introducing the producer, Mary-Paige, and the videographer, Jason, to our "pampered guests," and then…

Well, this morning — cooler, cloudy, and damp from rain overnight — Travis was back under his dog house in his hole, but in an entirely new way: face first, looking out. This hole is obviously bigger than I first thought (maybe I should get in there myself?) because he can fit his entire body…

I was scooping poop on Saturday morning when I saw Travis lying underneath the dog house in his yard. Now, to be honest, my first reaction was, "Well, at least you're finally using that @#%&! hole you dug!" Last year, soon after we moved here, Travis went to work excavating under the corner of his…

When I snuck quietly into the dog room this morning about 6:15 to take these photos, I was hoping to find blind Madison and blind and deaf Spinner sleeping "stacked," one on the dog bed below and one on the big bed above. That's the way they were yesterday morning when I walked in ……

I took this shot through the back door to the deck just before breakfast this morning. That's Skitter, one of our barn cats who moved out with us from Montana last year. Every morning she comes up to the deck when she hears us in the kitchen, then climbs up on to the railing to…

I took these photos this morning, when Dexter and blind Goldie realized Alayne was loading the dishwasher and that meant, "time to help!" In other words, "time to see if there's anything edible/lickable still left on the dishes!" They head over to the kitchen whenever one of us is loading the dishwasher, whether it's our…

This is our new arrival, blind Sophie, who has this adorable way of sitting up on her hindquarters to beg for food from the table. Given her plump, oblong shape, this is not an easy thing to do. Gravity is not her friend, so she often wobbles around on her rear legs before coming back…

Our equine vet, Dr. Steve Levine, came out today to do the annual vaccinations, dentals, and other routine medical work on our horse herd. The day had started out raining, but by the time Steve arrived, it had simply become a hot and humid summer afternoon. It was a nice change to have a day…

When the weather's hot, the coolest spot in the house is the floor in the "hall of seven closets" that connects the dog wing with the people wing. It's a simulated "tile" flooring, and that along with the twelve windows in the hallway combine to turn it into a cool, breezy spot to sleep. I…
