Seems like there is always, always
Something to do outside!
Dad is always outside—sometimes in the farm yard, sometimes on the farm land
Mom is outside most of time
So we go with her! (and each other)
Mom says we are the bestest of helpers. Always close to hand, always right where she is working
Mom says that way she doesn’t get lonely!

It’s been cold here
Why just Wednesday, we woke up to fog and snow
Mom told me she loves FOG!
Me?
As long as my hunting doesn’t get slowed down—I don’t care WHAT we get!

MOM! It’s Nice out here!
MOM! The Birds are singing!
MOM! NO WIND!!!!
GOSH!
Winter is GONE!
YAY! COME ON, MOM!!!
Boo Berry
Yep! It’s a bit windy!
(Spring starts this week! YAY)
Your friend on a western Colorado farm,
Linda
(Taken last week when we had snow again)
It snowed here—stopping the farming
(Last week It melted fast)
Sending me inside
With the house dog!
Huh?! WA?! Oh! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Boo Berry
In the afternoon it stopped snow/raining
So I went back outside. I have STUFF to DO!!! Much more than that dog does.

Mom and Dad have been working to clean up that
HUGE branch that fell in the yard
TLC and I helped
TLC said let’s play over here…that way we are out of the way.
After a bazillion hours, it was time to go in
TLC beat me to the house—he went in with Dad
I had to wait for Mom
HURRY MOM!
Finally! She got there!
Boo Berry and TLC
I was out doing my thing:
You know–hunting!
When I decided to head out to the field to see if there were any field mice wanting to play with me
Yep…lots of big birds
Oh! Well. I started moving along the gated pipe, searching and searching, trying to coax at least one mouse out into the open.
While I was doing that a new flock of the GIANT BIRDS FLEW DOWN AND LIT RIGHT BY ME!!!
I tried to ignore them, but ONE DECIDED TO PECK MY HEAD!!! Mom washed my head—but I washed it better.
I AM NOT BIRD FOOD!!!
I ran as fast as I could back to the house!
It was a couple of days before I felt comfortable going outside.
Mom said to be careful for a spell. The cranes are starting to migrate
It won’t be long until they are all gone…but until then….
I need to stay in the yard!
TLC
The wind is tad cold.
Just say’n.
(BUT I LOVE TO GO ANYWAY!)
Boo Berry
Yep! Chasing mice is a HAPPY!
Sleeping by Mom while she works on the computer is HAPPY!
Happy! Happy flickers everywhere if you pay attention.
“Come on, Boo Berry! Time to go to work”! Mom says as she walks downstairs.
Boo Berry and TLC
What are you doing, TLC?
Waiting for Mom or Dad?
You wait, then, I’m going out to the chicken house and look at
BIRDS!
Oh! Mom is here! Hi, Mom! Looking at birds are you?
SHHHHHHHHHH, Mom replied.
Okay.
