Puppy Love/ St. Bernard!
I’ve known only one St. Bernard in person, and she wasn’t a puppy. She was, however, very loving and very slobbery. There’s something comforting about St. Bernards, and I can see why they’ve earned a place in folk lore and in truth as rescue dogs. Have you ever made the acquaintance of a St. Bernard?…

Small Joys–Flat Stanley!
This year only five of us gathered at our house for Thanksgiving–my husband Neil, his brother and wife (who are neighbors), and me.

Thank you, Trish. Neil’s photos are almost always sunset pictures, and yes, it’s taken right in front of our house, which is on a small lake. We live in a sparsely populated area of the US, the eastern tip of the Upper Peninsula of the state of Michigan. In a 100 mile by 100 mile by 100 mile triangle we have about 20,000 people, most of them in the city of Sault Ste. Marie. Our little town has 600 people and we live 12 miles from town.
