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!

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.
I need to summer in Anchorage! :)
