I am baffled by how many hours I am putting into the porch reno every single day, despite the fact that someone else is doing the actual hammer-swinging. But Winter is breathing down the back of my neck, and the sooner the porch is at least buttoned up, the better! <br />Yes, Piper approaches life with a strong Play Ethic. I could learn something from her, maybe?<br />Have a great weekend :)Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292701509476856967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-42224952444759112202014-11-15T07:37:34.101-05:002014-11-15T07:37:34.101-05:00"No imagination"...LOL!"No imagination"...LOL!Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292701509476856967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-13403442485632421522014-11-15T03:50:57.878-05:002014-11-15T03:50:57.878-05:00That Piper sure does love the great outdoors.

What a great way to spy on the pets. I should put one of those in my house and leave the dog alone ... well, actually I don't need to, I know he pulls the garbage out and "hides" the evidence behind my chair in the living room (no imagination!). I hope your renovation is finished up quickly. Your home looks quite snug from where the goats are looking. It's gotten chilly here too, but so far only a few flurries and nothing staying on the ground. I can just feel Piper's energy in those shots!! What a happy pup to be loose in the woods at last! Enjoy your weekend.

This year I have been going full-tilt (well, of course my "full-tilt" is most foks' "barely creeping along" at this point, but I keep moving anyway) for the past couple of months at least, and there is stil So Much To Be Done. I'm just trying to stay calm and have faith that my best efforts will be good enough.<br />Stay warm! Bet it's beautiful at your place, at least once your chores are done and you can look out the wndow :)Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292701509476856967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-35135485925059254672014-11-14T18:39:50.198-05:002014-11-14T18:39:50.198-05:00Piper is personality plus; it just glows all over ...Piper is personality plus; it just glows all over her! As to weather, 6 inches of snow the first weekend of Nov and then melted. Last night, started snowing again and still snowing; temps dipping into teens tonight and hopefully not into single digits. The wood stove has a fire and we're cozy and warm but not ready for winter.

I bought mine originally as a means of unobtrusively checking on the does in kidding season, and it has already paid for itself many times over in that way. But it also provides a lot of useful and unexpected information about animal behavior. And then there's the entertainment value!Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292701509476856967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-73194929886954164242014-11-14T05:50:07.481-05:002014-11-14T05:50:07.481-05:00You would not believe how warm the cashmere goats ...You would not believe how warm the cashmere goats are, in their grow-your-own winter underwear. They choose to spend a lot of time outside, even on the coldest nights! I feel sorry for them when we get (lovely to me) warm days after the cold weather had begun. <br />There are some tasks that can be done regardless of weather, but the builder has a family commitment for a long weekend away. I'll be making a few decisions and searching out more materials, but trying to resist the urge to pick up a hammer on the porch. In the barn, maybe! ;)Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292701509476856967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-61544563061794493282014-11-14T02:28:19.904-05:002014-11-14T02:28:19.904-05:00Is that blaze orange that Piper is wearing? sensib...Is that blaze orange that Piper is wearing? sensible dog.Boudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00641013916263271948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-46457718106774365912014-11-14T00:27:49.700-05:002014-11-14T00:27:49.700-05:00Love the goat cam.

I've been thinking of getting a web cam for outside our house so we can know what critters are out there in real time (rather than checking the memory card after the fact).<br /><br />The early sunsets have exhausted me too. It feels as if I run out of daylight every day. Rest is important so I hope that you're finding time for some!KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-14501239281743057342014-11-14T00:13:13.330-05:002014-11-14T00:13:13.330-05:00LotV is probably thinking "Ha!
