12 of 12

The first opportunity of 12 of 12 for 2008 was today. I still have no camera.

So, here are some of the photos I would have taken today.

The fog settling in over the barn as the day began. No fire today. Air quality is going to be too bad.

Angus waiting for his Saturday morning breakfast of bacon and eggs. Hey, he is now 18 and half years old. Nothing is too good or bad for him. He still climbs several times a day, the 12 steps up and down to the yard without too much fuss.

Luke, not happy about going across the street to spend the day. He is hanging out, alone, on days when I am home, because he needs a job, so his is now to behave.

The fallen oak tree. Didn't realize last week that the oak in the creek had toppled over. Glad we got the chain saw fixed.

Numerous photos of the Saturday morning lesson at the barn. Nearly everyone was there. It was truly the first day that we could ride. Sara and Dillion; Sara (yes there are two) and Riley; Megan and Magic; Mel and Laddie; Cheryl and Patrick; Arlene and Lightfoot; Teresa and the new guy; Amy, Diana, and, of course, baby Seth. And, Dana and Livy stopped by to say hello.

The "new addition" to the farm menagerie. Still looking for his correct barnyard. A Rhode Island Red Rooster. Very pretty. White neck, green and rust wing feathers. Very pretty. None of my neighbors claim him. Don't know how long he has been hanging around. Today was the first day we saw him. Dogs don't seem to care.

Rufus running through the creek enjoying the first dry day in over a week.

And, then finally, the sun set. Peeked through an opening in the clouds and made everything that pretty color of red/orange.

So, there is my 12 of 12. Now, to get a camera.
