We’ve lived in the city and we’ve lived in the country, including the mountains of Colorado, but last night when the mist was sitting on the pond at dusk and volunteer sunflowers from the bird seed feeder were just opening up, I couldn’t imagine wanting to be anywhere else.

We have truly been blessed, and dare I saw finally lucky, with our choice of where to live out the rest of our days. Being able to run our own boarding kennel and hopefully, one day, feed ourselves from our garden, is just icing on the cake.
