More Glorious Weather

Another beautiful day, amongst those we have been blessed with these last few weeks.  We revel in them, but pray that some rain will come soon. 

Here is Bitty, a blue/black silkie that will soon be moving over to the new henspa.  She is not purebred, but is mostly silkie.

 

We are finally getting a little Christmas on around here... Keith helped me when he got home from work today, it took two of us to do this right... actually, it took HIM to do it right.

 

 Of course, I had him facing the setting sun.  That's my 2.00 wreath I got at the food pantry thrift shop.  The star and bow were already on it, but it was all crinkly... the bow smashed and the branches all smushed down.  I perked it up, and added some dollar picks from Hobby Lobby.  Now it's hanging on the deck for all to see. 

 

Keith has been under the weather for the last week, so I really appreciated his coming out to help me.

 

 

This hole, which is just outside the wild bird's feeding area, looks into a gaping area underground.  I meant to show it to Keith.  Though it looks larger here, it's about a little larger than a silver dollar.  You can look down into it!  I am wondering if we are about to have a collapse due to the dry conditions. 

 

 

And here's our big boy trying to figure out how to get up the steps this evening.  It's getting harder and harder for him every day.  We help him up in the house regularly, or bring water to him.  He is getting around better once up, on his medications.   I think a simple ramp would help him, but hate to add it to the List that Keith is burdened with.
