Nothing brands the memory more like fresh blood on white snow.  A few months ago my friend (and fellow blogger here) discovered his favorite rooster dead.  At first, the death appeared to be from natural causes.  Jorge’s lifeless body [...]

Late last night the snow started.  It was a very wet snow, thus, it stuck to everything making for a very beautiful morning.  We got about 4 inches.  I also noticed several tracks in the fresh snow all over the yard.  I think that between the death of Jorge and the high number of wild animal [...]

The silkiness of his years.
Seeing him [...]
