JUST A SHORT NOTE

BETTY ~ Harem mistress

For the next few days, you will find fewer posts than usual. One, maybe two. I have a chance to stay out in the country at my brother's lovely home and take care of his beautiful dogs. There is something about clear night skies and loving beasts... and warm fireplace and huge gardens that surpasses being home at my computer.

Betty, above, is retired from puppy-making and, as first lady, keeps the other ladies in line.  Dorothy, Pearl and Lucrecia jump when she tells them too. They even let her into the puppy box to sit with the new little ones.  A very regal beastie.  Only Howard, king of the walk, tells her what to do!  She has been known to go down to the gardens when hungry and dig up a potato for herself.

Last night, without binoculars, I was able to count the rings of Saturn.... amazing.
