I love seeing them.

Just a few blocks from our home-

I love these cows!

 

AWWW Monday! September 6, 2020

We enjoy taking walks around our new neighborhood.

Granted, we have been here for almost 2 years, 

but it still feels new to us! 

We totally enjoy walking by the cow pasture

 and I try to bring a few veggies or apples

for them to munch on!

Enjoy your day!

Thankful Thursday! May 28, 2020

Before we moved to Vancouver Washington about

18 months ago we lived for 6 years on 10 and 1/2 acres

outside of Mt Shasta California. We were surrounded

not only by mountains, but also by all sorts of

wild animals such as deer, bear, cougar, coyotes,

foxes, bobcats, squirrels, wild turkeys and jack rabbits.  

So when we moved up north I knew I would really miss

all the wild animals that we would see every day.

So when we moved here we made sure that

we found a home that we could look out

our windows and not see a fence, but would

observe birds, bunnies and squirrels in

the protected green space next to our home.  

And obviously we did!

We are so grateful and thankful that we

found this tiny peaceful paradise to live 

next to and enjoy.

There is even not far from us a large pasture

where cows graze. Just a few minutes to walk there.

Some of our neighbors would just as soon

not have the bunnies in their gardens, 

but I learned to be ambivalent about the

wildlife eating my plants while living

in the mountains. If they ate something...

guess what ? I didn't plant it again.

I learned what they didn't like and that is

what I used for landscaping 

and also what I planted in pots.

And that is what I do here.

Bunnies do not like herbs such as thyme,

lavender, rosemary, oregano and even basil.

Instead of growing tomatoes etc I go

to the lovely Farmers Market here that is

open even now with the virus situation.

They have rules and I am thankful they do

so we can go shopping and support our farmers!

Have a wonderful day, stay safe and be happy!

Thanks Brian for Thankful Thursday!

Awwwsome Sunday and Now it's Monday! September 25, 2016

 

Sunday we visited Chantal's parents.

Chantal's family runs a large dairy in Deurne-

about a 30 minute drive from Zaltbommel.

 

Their next door neighbors have lots of pigs.

I think one of these piglets is out of place! 

 

 

 

Next door was also an old motorbike show.  

 

 

 

Rens and kitty

 

 

Russell and I thought this kitty was the prettiest...

 

We counted about 6 cats at one point...

 

They followed Russell around the farm...

 

 

We had a great lunch and afterwards

we enjoyed being outside and visiting.

A lovely sunny and warm day.

A lonely calf wants some company.

I took this photo at my brother's home in Sandy, Oregon.

Below is sheer silliness!
