"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day
RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.
Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle

Settling In


even though our world has been turned upside down with new pets, we are all settling in real well...headstands are part of Tuks daily activities


Watson, 5 year old scorgi, who came to live with us one week ago today



he loves to do tricks and play catch--which Tuks loves, BUT he has a problem with barking and we will be addressing this very seriously ASAP!!


Beatrice and Hubble - about 10 - 12 weeks old..not litter mates- photos are from
our basement--so ignore the ugly....

Cute dog!!! How do you address barking? Our yorkie/poodle is so yippie. Our yorkie/pom some times follows her lead but is not really a barker by herself if that makes sense. Cute kitties too!

He sure looks like a Corgi, does he act like one too? (Hint; very bossy!) Also has a very good sense of hearing and barks at everything he hears.

I should clarify, that's what mine does. He does not bark all the time, just when he thinks something is going on at the door or outside on the street...and he is ALWAYS right! His hearing is something! Once in awhile he runs around the house barking just to boss the other dogs around. Yours is cute though, and he even has Corgi markings. Maybe you can get him to quit yelling.
