Poor McCloud


Poor McCloud developed a “hot spot” possibly from a spider bite over the weekend. He had to have the area shaved and he’s now on a round of antibiotics and a topical spray. Dr Weaver says he’ll live, lol! He’s in good spirits and is resting comfortably.

Good Lord he's cute asleep!


Marco was a tired boy after his morning walk yesterday. He really does smell like warm buttered popcorn when he sleeps, lol!

I spent last week helping out in a CVS store with a newly promoted manager putting up Christmas decorations and helping clean up a much unorganized store.

UFO in Woodstock!!!


While walking Marco a day or so ago we had to hurry home to avoid this storm front rushing across our area. I took this picture of the storm front and not until posting it to our blog did I notice the “object” hovering over the house at the far end of the street! You’ll have to click to enlarge the photo to see it clearly. You’ll note that it is about the same size as the home below! Want to take a guess?

Oak Tree Chips


Evidently Marco has decided that the falling oak leaves make pretty tasty chips, lol! Now with Jackson trying to eat all the chest nuts falling from the trees I shouldn’t have to rake a bit this season!


Fall Colors



A few more fall pictures.

Sudden Hail Storm




Marco and I had to hurry home from our walk a few days ago when a sudden storm rushed over our area. We were only home a few minutes when we were pelted with hail!

After a day in the sun!


After a full day in the sun the boys decided to watch a movie and take a nap!

A Sunny Day


Marco and Jackson took full advantage of our sunny weekend to catch up on their tan!
