    Mid 70's and very enjoyable with a slight breeze. Pups and I had a nice walky this morning. Breakfast out on the back porch watching the birdies with momma.

    Cleaning the chicken coupe and then some mowing this afternoon. Happy Sunday y'all! :D

    :cheers:

    The antibiotics didn't seem to bother him all that much. But the new deworm pill which is helping kill off the babies in his bloodstream has affected his appetite. They may change that if he loses too much weight! Its a good thing pops chonked him up before all this chit happened!! Just sayin :whistle:

    He has another 2 weeks on antibiotics before they start the the drug that kills the worms he has in his heart. There's way more side effects with this drug and not many other options!! We are still on pins and needles!!

    Thanks for asking David! It means alot! :tears:

    Cheers

    X2. Having a very soft spot for Border Collies, hope all goes well for Brodie. Please keep us up-to-date on his progress. Fingers crossed.

    The HOT WEATHER is finally gone....
    We have had almost 3/4" of rain since 7 am this morning...Went out to breakfast and when we got home I cleaned the little stove and lit a fire....

    First fire we have had since mid/late June I think.....
    Just shut it down a bit ago....House is near 74F....Rain is tapering off now....Almost over for the day....

    The decent rain will really help kill the fire danger....Clear the air of Smoke and dust from the long hot summer.......
    Been working as I can on the Snow Cat....Made some decent progress....

    The Weather is looking more like an early fall.
    I am going to start getting ready for our first shell run here soon.....

    We have enough empty barrels for a full load....

    After the big time cleaning of the barn this spring and things are neat and clean.....
    We still have some old stock we need to burn through though.....But filling up everything is a good thing...

    We only cracked the upper 80's. Had a bit of a breeze too. Wifey had the day off, So we took the puppers to the lake for some splashing and stick fetching. Lil chit could do it all day, My shoulder is toast so momma had to take over stick throwing duties after she got a few pic's of him. He had a blast!!

    He starts his treatments next week and won't be able to exert much(we have orders to keep him calm). So we made it his day. Stopped for a pup cup on the way home. And some dogs and burgers once we got home. He's zonked out now!!
