Our Newest Dream
Nancy and I think a hot tub would be a great addition to our back yard (out the kitchen door) and I was wondering if anyone has much experience/feedback about hot tubs. It could be our 30th Anniversary Present (Dec 16, 1976)to each other!

"Dog Movie Star"
"Nevis collie chosen for 'Lassie' movie remake" reads the the secondary headline.
The Pioneer (Bemidji's own daily newspaper) reads:
It's a secret that was bound to come out, at least in northern Minnesota. A local collie named Mason is starring in the new movie, "Lassie."
Producers for the movie flew to Nevis to view Mason and he was chosen immediately because they were looking for a dog with four white socks, a nice blaze on his face, a white tip on his tail and a full white collar ruff. Mason was flown to LA for three months of training, and then went on to four months of filming in Ireland. He appears in about 85% of the film, with a second dog, Dakota, doing the stunts.
Mason has now returned to his former status of being a farm dog, but with a frequent flier miles!
Lucky Mason...I wonder if he knows that he is a movie star?? I wonder what Morgan & Emma think about that??

Leaves Leaves Everywhere
Tis the season...not for shoveling inches of snow, but mulching feet of leaves. This move has been a "little" wake up for the actual time and energy it takes to care for a large, beautiful yard. We went from a single tree, to a yard full of maintence. We are enjoying it (as is Kane) but can't seem to keep up~~
