Close Encounters with Vivaldi the Cat

Posted by Sharkey

Vivaldi the cat is one sly fellow. He is always doing things to get under our skin. Just the other day, I found him all sprawled out on top of a nice soft pile of our clothes. Martha keeps our dog wardrobe neatly folded in baskets in a room off the kitchen called the servery. …

Driving with Martha around the farm

Posted by Francesca

Martha is always working so hard and Francesca and I were elated to find her home last Friday morning.  It was such a beautiful day and she told us that we were going for a drive around the farm.  We always like to hear that news so we found the Kawasaki and waited patiently while …

Playing in the leaves

Playing in the leaves

Posted by Francesca

Who doesn’t love playing in a big pile of dry and fluffy leaves?  It’s so much fun and I feel sorry for dogs who live where no leaves fall.  Sharkey and I discovered some really big piles the other day and jumped right in.  One thing’s for sure – while playing, it’s really important to …

Regular readers of our blog know how much Francesca and I love to chase animals.  Yesterday, we were out and about and I realized that we hadn’t seen the donkeys for a while.  We located the paddock that they were in and I proceeded to have one yelping good time.  As usual, Francesca stayed on …

A lot of things are changing at the farm along with the season.  For example, I discovered a long line of shiny barrels in the carport and I just had to know what they were for.  I finally got Francesca interested in having a look and of course, we wanted to get in on the …

We heard Martha talking to Mike, the property manager, about when the tub grinder was going to arrive, and then finally, we heard that it was here.  A tub grinder is an enormous machine that grinds up branches and logs and of course, we just had to take a look.  We took the Kawasaki back …

The weather was so nice the other day and we Frenchies spent a good part of it outside. The sun was shining warmly and we went to one of our favorite vantage points – The Great Wall of Bedford – right off the terrace overlooking the farm.

Shaun and Wilmer are really working hard in the gardens, getting them ready for winter. Francesca and I were out chasing squirrels the other day and decided to take a break from that and help out with some of the chores. You know we’re such good workers and our help is always appreciated.

ABC's Nightline visits the farm

Sharkey and I always join Martha in the gym for her daily exercise regimen, and yesterday, we were surprised to see that she had visitors there. We found out it was that television show, called Nightline and that Cynthia McFadden, one of the co-anchors was interviewing Martha. They were actually doing a big …
