Late Breaking News: Punxsutawney Phil did NOT see his shadow at Gobbler’s Knob today, Feb. 2, 2016, Groundhog Day, and so Spring is just around the corner.

Funny weather predicting creatures. I like them. I used to have one that lived in the woods behind my previous house. He liked to stand on top of the hill and watch the world go by. They have some interesting names: Land Beaver, Whistlepig, Woodchuck, Wood-shock, Groundpig, Whistler, Thickwood Badger, Canada Marmot, Monax, Moonack, Weenusk, and the Red Monk. The name “Thickwood Badger” was given in the Northwest to distinguish the animal from the Prairie Badger. Monax was an Native American name of the woodchuck, which meant “the digger.” Babies are called “Chucklings” (I love that!). These are a North American critter and I don’t believe you see them else where in the world.

Have you ever met a groundhog? What do you call them? Will there be 6 more weeks of winter in your neck of the woods? – DogDaz

2 PM Friday 8 AM Saturday 8 AM Sunday 29.2 inches of snow Lost the fence.
This record breaking blizzard was not fun. The dogs want the grass back!!!! Finally, Louise taught Sofie how to make a path to the pine trees where the snow was a little less deep. Happily spring is only 47 days, 3 hours, 7 minutes, and 24 seconds away (time now 23:22 EST).
What mischief did you get into today?

After a romp in the tall snow, Lulu looks like a puppy.
Have a great Sunday!

Louise does not really like any one (except maybe Mom) touching her. But Sofie, ever since she was a puppy, has made it her mission in life to cuddle up to Louise. Secretly maybe Louise likes it, but I don’t really think so. BOL (Bark Out Loud)

Sofie is not a big fan of the car.
Rarely is it just her without Louise.
She had the whole back sit to herself.
She does not look amused.
Have a wonderful Sunday.

Peanut graduated college in December and she is now back home with us. Because she is a big person now, she brought with her a BIG bed. We like this new bed. More room for us and all our toys. We love having you home Peanut. Your room is the best!!!! (picture by Peanut)

Nine appears to be having a conversation with the ghost that keeps the birds from hitting the big picture window. Does he see the ghost or is he looking right through him? Maybe their is a bird in the tree that he is staring at? All the cats like to sit and watch the birds. The whole reason we bought this house is because we feel like we are in a tree house in the living room with this big window. The big maple tree is right there and it gives the cats so much to watch (and us too). The wood peckers, juncos, sparrows, cardinals, titmice, yellow and house finch, and especially our little wrens, all love to amuse the cats. So many fun things to see out of a picture window.
