Good evening, Luv!

*HUGS*

It's great to see you this evening!

What am I looking at? The product of a mixed Owl-Squirrel marriage? Diversity gone wild!

Seriously, a great pic! The lion will lay down with the lamb - the owl will lay down with the squirrel!

America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Good evening Kathy & hope your Wednesday wasn't too crazy.

It's so hot here the trees are whistling for dogs!:)

I ordered a new meat grinder & spent the evening making ground beef.

Chuck roasts were on sale for $2.49 per pound so I loaded up & made several pounds on the cheap.
