Ok MTSTip, I won't try to befriend any weasels in the near future!

WS680, we had a barn cat like that, no fear, he would fight anything.

Watching the family of turkeys feeding in our backyard just out the kitchen door. My little black cat is riveted.

Have a great country day, y'all!

Our coyotes here in AZ look like starving mangy dogs. I nearly hit one the other night, ran right across the road when I was doing about 60. That would have been ugly.

^^^ yep, that's what ours look like. We don't get them often, see one maybe every five years.

Two years ago we got our first stop sign, and they changed our townline signs. They used to be 6" by 6" wooden posts, painted white with the town spelled out vertically on the side of the post in black letters. Two posts in total, one post at the South end of town and one post at the North end of town. But now we have steel posts with a metal sign, and the town name spelled out horizontally.

We have gone modern They paved the county road that comes to our City. I might have to retrain the car, it is still trying to dodge the pot-holes that aren't there. I almost missed the turn when I came back from Fargo yesterday. Didn't recognize the road.

I guess I am no longer live in a small town. Next they will probably pave the city streets. going to be bad on the Horse's Hooves.
