My daughter has been gracious and kind and allowed me to use her internet and computer at her house since mine is down. Let me start by thanking everyone for their support the past couple of days. Your emails have been wonderful and your comments also. 🙂 It has brought unspeakable joy to our hearts.
Since my internet is down if anyone who has my phone number hears anything about the Dixie search please call me. 🙂 I do not know how long our net will be down.
Today the collies played in the cold sun and hounded the squeel who has been a big chicken since he was almost snatched out of the yard, not daring to come down too low or across the fence.
As the snow has melted we have been finding toys lost under the snow in the yard. Rebel has his football again after several months without it. He runs like a crazed maniac when I kick or throw it. So, we have Branwen chasing her bat, Lad his ball, Rebel his football, lil Hallie and her brain cover, Ginger and her missile and Rutherford and his branches.
Today a bunch of parts for the Case tractor I am restoring showed up. A winged radiator cap, which looks nice when I put it on, a gauge, some gaskets, a Case Emblem for the front of the hood and a boot for the gear shifter. They also sent me a nice Case Tractor calendar. 🙂
As is usual when I came home today the collies crowded at the fence and barked, whined and Lad ran across the yard howling……. I came out to a bunch of happy collies and we played for a while till they came in for their supper. We saw the squeel, saw a Hawk, Geese, Ducks and various other birds. Even a rabbit ran by the fence…. the collies of course did not miss any of it.
Ginger stole Branwen’s bat today. That lasted for a minute or so…. Branwen stomped over and Ginger refused to give it back. In the end Ginger played with it for a minute then saw a bird and moved on…. I thought it would be war for sure, but nothing doing. Ginger decided that the bird was more interesting as Branwen prepared for war. 🙂
Just another day at the Meadow…..

Collies Of The Meadow 
Sounds like you had heaps of fun tooday guys, playing in the meadow with all your toys. Whee pigs aren’t a big fan of toys and would rather be eating the grass than playing on it!
The Pigs xx
Let’s hear it for melting snow and Hummingbird weather!
Mymomwithoutpaws is not sure if I would share my toys when Riley visits so she picks them up all the time just to be sure. Ol Cissy does not play with toys she just wants treats. Hope you are up and running soon.
It’s amazing what pops out of the snow. Lots of goodies!
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Still hoping for news!
Sounds like you’re having fun outside!! Glad you still have a net connection. Hope yours is up and running again soon!! 😉
That must be fun finding all those toys. I never lost mine so I think I should get some new ones.
