Musing on Monday














We know some of you had trouble finding ME in the photo - so here I am. Mom says I gave her a scare when she turned around and couldn't see me but I always come when she calls and she laughed when  my head popped up from behind the little hill.

Many of you also asked about Mrs Goose and whether she gets hot up on that tin roof. We have noticed that every year she builds a nest up there while it is cool but her 'real nest' where she lays her eggs and hatches her babies is one a little island in the middle of the lake. Last year she had 5 little ones and Mr Goose does an excellent job of protecting them.

And finally we can share a picture of our new home in Florida. Mom loves the bright cheerful color and we love the big backyard - we can't wait to get there and check it out for ourselves. We are hoping to move the last week of April. And yes - it does have a pond behind it but there have never been any gators in it and it is actually a closed off pond so there is no way for gators to get in it. Dad says when he went to see the house that he did see some Geese on the pond - we will have no trouble telling them just who's pond it is when we get there :)

  3. Oooh, I love your new Florida house! The backyard is a good size for playing and you will probably see lots of great water birds in your pond throughout the year. Paws crossed for no gators ever...but they can be sneaky so always be careful.

  4. Pawsome new house! The color orange house fits the month of April "Go Orange for Animals". April is the awareness month for prevention of cruelty to animals. Oz mentioned it on his blog and he is having a contest.

  10. Wow, your new house is so very pretty! OMD you will have warm and sunny weather and that will make the pond a lot of fun since the gators will be kept out. No fun sharing with them! BOL I'm so very excited for all of you. Those birdies are such good parents.

  17. That's a very cute house. We'd have that grass a mess in no time. We think geese are better than gators.

  20. Your new place looks like sunshine and being close to the beach sounds terrific I would like that. Oh I would worry about sink holes in Florida. We would love to sell our home, Lee is struggling with yard work already having been so sick this year. We have thirty two homes on our street and seven are up for sale.
    Thanks for being a friend
