Oz Girl – precisely! Elinor and I were discussing how wonderful the Lazy G Ranch is! We both agree. YOU ROCK!

Frugalmom – Snow is NOT at all cool if you have no trees. You don’t need snow. I’ll have a chat with Mother Nature. She’s a close friend of mine, you know?

Marmy – you ALWAYS make me laugh! Well buy the danged book, and get your limey butt over here to help me out on this homestead! We will add goats and turkeys this spring. I need you!!!!

Shirley – thanks. These pups are very photogenic!

CeeCee – Right? I mean fair is fair, and winter is not until this Monday dangit! But yea, we’ll give the pups a break…..

Katey – when I was very young, I spoke fluent German. But I’ve lost it over the years. Elinor and her family are like family to us. We met them in the early 1960s when my dad was stationed there. We have kept in touch every since. Today I use a translator to write with her. But when we speak on the phone we understand each other perfectly! And she speaks beautiful English as well. Oh, and I did get your pictures. TOTALLY awesome! I am SO happy for you! I sent you and reply – I hope you got it?

SVB – well, I wonder if you are only having rain TODAY?? I think it’s snowing every where in Virginia. Heaven knows we’ve gotten our yearly allotment all in one day! If you are getting it, I hope you are enjoying it. Some people do.

Lilla – these pups even have ME out in the snow! They love it. And I love watching them in it. They are such a hoot! As for the fluent German, see my comment to Katey

Captain and George enjoy romping in the snow as much as Dolly and Diesel! That chicken picture was funny. I bet she was wondering what the heck she had gotten herself into. Wow, I’m impressed with your fluent German as well. You never cease to amaze Penny!

Love your snow pictures. All we’ve gotten is rain and more rain – which is not near as pretty.

All that and you speak German??? I bow to the Queen! I come from a German family but can only count to 10, I think. My Nikki loves the snow too! She just goes nuts when she can play in the snow. Those treats look great, will have to check out the website. Sending picx of the farm to you today………ok it took me awhile to figure out the whole getting them into the puter thing. Sometimes I am such a dork!

I’m with you–No snow until it’s officially winter.
I guess the dogs don’t keep a calendar and they can be excited about it if they want.

Wow! That was an early xmas present for the pups, huh? That was so sweet of her to send you a little sampler like that.

As for the snow, well, you can keep it. I dont want it. It does look pretty on your trees. But I dont have any trees, so it wont look pretty over here.

I love that pic of your chicken – how funny! And dogs…. they ALWAYS love snow, don’t they? Unless they are little lap dogs, then not so much. I know mine really love to burrow and play in the snow. They are so much fun to watch… from inside the house, LOL.

Hey, thanks for the biscuit exposure and I have to agree. I think mine like the cheesers best too! I have added beef broth to my most recent bath of the breath mints and I think they like them better now.

So you and Elinor, you were talking about my new business venture, right? LOL…..

Liebste Elinor – YAY für Klitschko! Ich bin froh, dass er gut verpackt für Sie! Ja, der Schnee ist schön und die Welpen lieben es – aber ich bin so traurig, dass der Sommer vorbei ist. Es ist schwer zu glauben, dass Advent ist schon da. Wo ist in diesem Jahr fort? Bald werde ich in Georgien mit Mutter und Vater, Debra, Christina, und die Kinder. Ich freue mich darauf. Und bevor wir sie kennen, werden Sie hier! Wir sind so glücklich zu wissen. Mein lieber Elinor, ich hoffe, Sie heute gut schlafen und haben sehr angenehme Träume. Wir schicken Ihnen viel Liebe, Umarmungen und Küsse. Unsere besten und Liebe Uli, Tante Linke, Maurice, und der Rest der Familie. Mit viel Liebe, Penny
