I'm at the farm for the holiday, and there's a row of SUVs and my truck pulled up to the gate.
It's a beautiful, chilly day, and for now just my "nuclear" family is here, with the addition of Little Brother's gf, who we like a lot. I hope she's the one for him--I think he's ready and she seems vivacious and affectionate and quite smart, both a local girl and a world traveler--born in Hong Kong, she's lived in Mumbai and Kenya and Roanoke and Connecticut and now is in Charlotte, NC, where Little Bro lives.
I brought Coal and Flint and Kismet and Kalibre.
The view from the front porch:
Kismet found this grizzly prize.... a BONE.... sorta... (ewww)
