It’s been a long while since I posted on here. There’s some catching up to do! I guess the most recent news is that, after a year or so of being a single dog tribe after Shelby died in 2021, a new member has joined the pack. Skye, a young blue merle Rough Collie, became part of the Dog Tribe of Round Hill on the Thanksgiving Weekend. He was born on July 28, 2022, so is a bit over 5 months of age now. Initially, I was concerned that Sage2 might be a bit jealous of the new kid on the block, but it turns out that he really likes having a little sidekick and it treating him very well. They play together in the garden several times a day while I am doing outdoor work. It’s all been very entertaining. Skye is growing quickly – I measured him today and he is standing about 20 inches tall at the shoulder. Sage2 is about 25 inches tall, so the youngster is catching up with him. Anyhow, that’s a bit of news to get me started blogging again. I don’t know if I’ll be able to keep it up, but I’ll give it a shot.

Hi am! Yes, I’m going to try to get back into blogging. We’ll see if I can keep it up this time. I think of you too although I don’t get around to visit all of the old blogs. However, I’m thinking I will not only write more posts, but also try to do more blog reading. My net connection was so bad for awhile that it was pretty tedious, but things are somewhat better now. The joys of rural internet in Nova Scotia!
Good to hear from you, Bev. Whenever I see a collie, I think of you. On the morning of winter solstice, I walked down to the lake to watch the sun appear at the hills to the east. It was cold and there was fairly deep snow on the ground. There were two women there by Lake Whatcom. One was chanting something as the sun rose and the other one was out walking with a young playful collie. Whenever I see an interesting insect, I think of your insect photos. I see more insects that I see collies. Either way, I think of you more often than you might think. Hope to see more posts!
