Lily (The Queen)

The best things in life are free - she was given to us by a very good friend. She actually was born in a barn! This lovely cat puts up with three dogs, one of whom she has adopted as her best friend. She loves to snuggle, and she loves the sound of her cat food hitting the bowl.

Sonja and Melo

Sonja is actually the pup on the left, Melo the mom on the right. I helped the puppies into the world. We kept Sonja for Jason, since she was born while he was in a coma. She was the fifth puppy, a female, and tricolor. She is named for Jason - Sonja is Jason mixed up!

Lily and Melo

Not the greatest quality, but it has the cuteness factor! Lily and Melo are one day apart in age, and came to live with us one week apart, back in 2004.

Wynken, Blynken, and Nod

These precious little lambs were triplets. Stef and I watched them being born on a cold spring day. All three survived, the little one on the left was the last one born.

Got a penny.....I mean quarter?

Used to be worth a penny, now it takes a quarter!

Corn and 'Maters

Grown in Pennsylvania. The contrasting colors make for a beautiful arrangement.
