Friday Photos: New Coat
29 DecBlue-eyed Buddy Boy has a thick winter coat!
And a blue knitted blanket just his size.
And new accommodation in the former dairy barn.
YES! Close to the wood burning stove!
The mower barn was drafty! And the hay barn is not the same since it was rebuilt after the fire in July.
HAPPY NEW YEAR ya’ll
Did NOT
19 DecA time when the gift bag is a gift!
How perfect!
We found “Eve” on Christmas Eve 2006 in the cattle trailer on Nina Bay Farm. Apparently someone was depositing kittens in trailers parked at the Sale Barn a couple of days earlier. How’s that for a strategy to find homes for animals?
Eve did not have an opportunity to climb a Christmas tree in 2006. She did climb Christmas trees the next two years. The tree did not fall over.

Buddy Boy
I introduced Buddy Boy in July, when he was found after being missing 21 days following a barn fire. He is well. Though he may prefer rolls of hay in the winter, presently he resides in the mower barn.

Tree Story
21 Dec“Eve” was a Christmas present to us Christmas “Eve” of 2006. (She should NOT be on the table cloth.)
If trees could talk….
The six sparkly cane shaped ornaments were my first purchase (early 1970s). I remember the Christmas Shop well. It was July in North Carolina! The shop was cool! Full size trees were decorated to the max. Enchanting. Delightful.
The Christmas Shop, 621 South Highway 64, Manteo, NC 27954 – See more at: http://outerbankschristmas.com/About.htm#sthash.i4bIvfu5.dpuf
According to the history on their website, they downsized and closed the business for 90 days in 2008. It has since reopened and sounds delightful as I remember.
For more than twenty years I had fresh-cut Christmas trees, they are not talking. About twenty-five years ago, when “more was more”, I bought this little tree to be a “theme” tree in my master bedroom. The vision: white lights and blown glass ornaments. That plan was in effect for several years. When my stepdaughter insisted on decorating a Christmas tree each Thanksgiving weekend, she claimed this little one for her room the next 10 years. The decorations were all of her choosing.
After a seven-year storage period, our littlest tree regularly appears with ornaments selected to remind us of our angels Anne, Grandma Sophie, Kathy and beloved cat Shelby. Merry Christmas to all!

Friday Photo: Eve, let’s read a book
14 OctLet’s read!
Our alcove with LED pot lights is “purrrfect” for reading “old-fashioned” books. Eve joined me in the adjacent chair for each chapter.
This week we read the old-fashioned format…paper, hard cover, jacket of Legends and Lies, The Patriots by David Fisher. We recommend reading this compelling history of the founding of the United States, especially in an election season. Our politics were messy then, as now.
