More Spring

The green grass sprouts, the ponies are happy!



Flower plums, crocus, lily of the valley and violets adorn the land.






The land comes back to life after winters deep rest.

Till We Meet Again, Sweet Phife

 She was found along the road, a 4th of July weekend, broken legs and all. She was brought home to heal. In no time at all, she ran the family. A tiny package of mighty chihuahua. When Duane showed up last year - she let him know in short order who ran the pack.
