so happy hearted in the warmth"

 

 



Hurricane Camille...

August 17, 1969...Hurricane Camille.  I still wonder why we didn't change her middle name to Camille?  I remember that hospital ward in Quantico Naval Hospital.  We gathered at the windows to watch rescue helicopters land on the grounds.  They were picking up survivors from the flooded James River and bringing them to Quantico.  We had no idea how bad things were south of Prince William County.  All we knew were our sweet new babies in the nursery down the hall.

Ah yes, things were different then, and now.  She's grown into an awesome Veterinary Technician.  The pic is of her with one of her favorite and largest feline clients.  Happy Birthday my sweet girl.  We love you!

 

Fidelity to love...

Your fidelity to love, that is all you need.
No day will then match your strength,
What was once a fear or problem will see
you coming, and step aside...or run.

Hoof problem...

My baby boy, "Tiger" (who just turned 23 on my birthday) has a sad white hoof.  The farrier accidentally cut it and it bled like crazy.  Turns out it's something not like what people get called a "canker" but it can turn into cancer.  I hate mud and we have had too much of it.  Tiger stood around in a muddy pasture area to eat his hay. (He won't come in the barn to eat it most days)

We're working very hard with him to keep this getting better.  It already looks better.

Number 24, but always first to me!

Race face...it's time for you to win!

Into the darkness...

 

"When you walk to the edge of all the light you have

and take that first step into the darkness of the unknown,

you must believe that one of two things will happen:

 

There will be something for you to stand upon,

or, you will be taught to fly."
