Not more than 2′ from the bedroom window is a Yew bush that houses a bird feeder. The bush offers the birds a little bit of protection from the elements while they dine. Because the feeder is only about 4 or 5 feet off of the ground, it also attracts deer! This is good news for Brewster and Savannah! Not only do they have an opportunity to watch their feathered friends dart in and out for seeds, but deer regularly visit the feeder as well – especially at night! Whenever the motion light turns on, Brewster and Savannah race to the window to watch a real live version of “Animal Planet”. This was 11:30 PM last night. The snow was falling and it was blustery and cold, but the deer are hungry and they came to say hello and have a snack!

CFA (Cat Fanciers’ Association) judge Gary Veach spent time at last year’s World Show teaching future judges about the Tonkinese. Don’t you love this cat’s two light colored paws and two dark paws? What a willing participant in Gary’s breed seminar! Tonkinese are social, playful and are convinced that humans are put on earth to love them. At least so says the CFA breed profile!

“Once you have had a wonderful dog, a life without one is a life diminished.”
I need to change this quote so that it reads….
“Once you have had a wonderful dog or cat, a life without one is a life diminished.”
There…that’s much better!

…in a one horse open sleigh…o’er the fields we go…laughing all the way! This scene in Lancaster County, Pa. was Christmas card worthy! While I expect to see a horse and buggy as I am traveling through the countryside, I was thrilled with the unexpected surprise of seeing a horse-drawn sleigh on a winter afternoon! I added a painting effect to the photo with Topaz Impression.
