Given Paws…again

Posted on March 22, 2022 by Marc Kuhn

They’re baaaack!  The animals, that is.  I have managed to keep our household pet-free for almost a year, but it was inevitable that some kind of four-legged creature(s) would find its way past me…out-voted again.  Since Bill the Dog died … Continue reading →

Fishing With The Pelicans

Posted on November 13, 2021 by Marc Kuhn

Thank you Bill The Dog

Posted on October 9, 2020 by Marc Kuhn

I’ve put off writing this particular posting.  The topic is not a happy one.  In fact, I’ll make the assumption that many of you have gone through the same experience.  And that is, having to put down your pet dog … Continue reading →

WELCOME HENRI!

Posted on October 7, 2020 by Marc Kuhn

Since we moved last January, Rosemarie’s interest in birds has taken flight, pun intended.  There is a bountiful supply of her feathered friends to watch because our new home backs up on a reserve.  This is an area of land … Continue reading →

Roach

Posted on July 15, 2020 by Marc Kuhn

I have come to respect the impressive ability the cockroach has to follow me wherever I go. No, I am not kidding. Cockroaches have lived in every house I have lived in. I guess I should be flattered that they appreciate … Continue reading →

Posted on March 25, 2020 by Marc Kuhn

Posted on March 17, 2019 by Marc Kuhn

Maybe in your neighborhood you have to worry about fast drivers, kids playing in the streets, potholes that eat tires and keep wheel alignments shops busy.  Yeah, I remember all those things when I lived in the northeast USA, but … Continue reading →
