Good Dog
January 29, 2011
Our Australian Shepherd, Kelev (Hebrew for “dog”) has become quite the little man. Today was his first time at barking at strangers. My in-laws came over and Kelev gave a hardy bay at them alerting us that they was in the yard. I am very proud of him.
You will often hear me telling him “Kelev Tov” which means “Good Dog” in Hebrew. ~~~ CONTINUE READING…~~~

SFA Experimental Forest
January 3, 2011
We headed to Nacogdoches to have a look at the SFA “experimental” forest. The trail is approximately 3 miles, if you do walk both loops, which we did. The trailhead had restrooms that were fairly good, as far as restrooms on trails go, also a picnic area and water fountains. The first loop called the Jack Creek Loop was completely paved for easy access to handicap persons. The second trail called Management Loop has a natural path to walk on.
We looked around for something to investigate. Naturally the kids find a fallen tree to walk on. Some nice little bridges were built across the low areas. CONTINUE READING…

Black-cats and Wigwams
January 1, 2011
Stewart often tells me a story from his childhood about playing at his creek and taking firecrackers and sending them down the creek on little leaf “boats”. He tells how he would blow up anthills and “houses” of twigs. So of course he has to pass this tradition down to our kids. What better way to spend New Years Day than putting explosives in the hands of children.
Adam was excited that the firecracker blew the dirt out of a hole he dug. Then he stuck one inside the wall of the dirt pit and watched the dirt fly.
Anna was a bit more timid. She would approach from one way, chicken out and have to try it from a different way. CONTINUE READING…
