Every evening, before Laura Acuna, the housekeeper, leaves for the day, she has to hunt down all of the cats and make sure they are inside for the night.  She sometimes asks us, Frenchies, to locate them, since they like to hide so much.  We’ve got to tell you, cats are so uncooperative!

We, Frenchies, were chasing one of our squirrels the other day and it ran up a pretty styrax tree outside of the blog studio.  I have to admit that we get carried away when it comes to squirrels and I guess we did a no-no.  Have a look.

The other day, between raindrops, we Frenchies picked some amazing tree peonies to decorate the house.  We thought we would go back to the border to gather some more, but there’s one big problem – it’s been raining and oh, so dreary!

On yesterday’s blog, I was out hunting for dogwood trees and found some in the woods.  After satisfying my dogwood urge, and since I was already in the woods, I decided to partake in some animal tracking, one of my favorite pastimes.  There are so many interesting scents to pick up and follow in the …

Sharkey and I were outside the other day, when she suddenly realized that Sasa, the horse, was no longer wearing his warm winter coat.  That caused her to go into a silly tirade about how we are no longer wearing our fashionable cold weather wardrobe and she was actually lamenting that fact!  Honestly, Sharkey can …

There seemed like a lot of action at the stables the other day, so Francesca, Sharkey, and I went to check it out.  Linda, the farrier, was there and it’s always great to see her.  Betsy was also getting ready to take Ramon out for a ride.  And it seemed that Ramon had a few …

You probably know from reading this blog that the Frenchies, especially Sharkey, like to bark at the donkeys, Clive, Rufus, and Billie.  Where the donkeys just laugh and let the idle threat roll away, other members of the farm menagerie take matters more seriously.  For example, the two Black Welsh Mountain sheep don’t know what …
