Cute Snow Day picture!

I'm always a "sucker" for a fuzzy face. This picture from the Chicago Tribune caught my eye - and my heart. :-)

On "Super Tuesday" my vote is for...

...Mike Huckabee.

I don't think I'd ever find a politician to match every single view I have of where we need to be in this country, but of any candidate that is out there, Governor Huckabee has hit the majority of where I think this country needs to be at. Not only that, he is the first candidate that I have ever agreed with on so many issues - marriage and family, life, the place of faith in the political arena, national security, taxes, and the list goes on. Check out his stand on all the issues, and I bet you will agree with him on many areas, too. It's all common sense:

And no matter what, be sure to vote....Our voices need to be heard, and truly every vote does count!

The Golfing Fox

I'm a real softie for animals, especially ones that do really cute things. This little fox not only grabs the golf balls, he prefers the good (and expensive) ones.

Watch the fox getting golf balls on the news

Happy Thanksgiving!

Fall Color at The Cove in Asheville, North Carolina

I was at the Cove (www.thecove.org) the weekend of November 2 - 4, 2007, for a seminar with Pastor Bob Coy of Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale. Here are two shots taken by me of the wonderful color there that weekend.

Wonderful Tribute

This lovely poem came from a friend on Canine - L (canine-l@lists.psu.edu) in memory of Smokey, so I wanted to share it with you.

Smokey, she was our dear girl,
Our blessing, a real pearl.
She wrote us poetry for the ages
With the wisdom of the sages,
A heart pure as snow--
How could she go?!
Be free, dearest one,
Bask in the sun.
Your work here is done.

We'll remember you forever.
