Comment on A dead squirrel by wkf

Do ya’ll own a .22 ? That would be a better method than drowning.
If he is a good shot. Here is the problem with the gun. The squirrels get smarter than you. Just ask my husband another Great White Squirrel Hunter. The squirrels will be frolicking in the yard like a Disney Movie , until he comes out with a gun. Then there is dead silence. So I guess you’ll have to keep using the trap to catch and dispose(shoot) them. Good Luck . I really do understand his frustration. But like you I am glad it is him.

This gives new meaning to “Women of the Night.” Amazing story!

Oh, and don’t forget me - city girl in s.e. Michigan (outside Detroit) who wishes she was ‘out West’ most of the time - I love your blog (love your pictures, too) and I learn a lot from it and it sparks a lot of curiosity. Right now I’m particularly curious about water-rights in the West…very interesting.

And I bet those “three locals” enjoy your blog too.

Thanks again.

Take care and all the best

Thanks for commenting, Andreas (sometimes it feels like I’m writing for three locals). Alice

Comment on Suzy Maynard’s willow chairs by Allie

You are right, these are wonderful chairs. I have the honor of owning the first one Suzy made, and I love it. When I can’t sleep, or if I decide to read, knit or just rock, it’s my very favorite place to be. My chair reminds me of Suzy and Hesperus. So when the Texas heat makes me melt, I come inside and rock in my rocky mountain Suzy-chair. Hugs to all of my Colorado friends, Alice in Texas.
