bobcat in the dog yard

The Bobcat is very large and yellow with a big black mouth, big enough to scoop up 10 dogs... look in the videos and see if you can spot it.

Freya eats chicken food. Seems like Apple Ginger would love to eat a chicken.

Here is Apple Ginger eyeing some chickens (this company seems to slip some ads in the videos?)

Beany is under the weather. He has been here for months, he's old, and it's not good. Time for him to go home.

I want to make one long movie of all the dogs and I did, three times, with everything in one 4 minute video: fetch, wrestling, Frankie playing with Lucy, lovely stuff... then the camera crapped out. It was like this but longer and better:

If I want to embed the videos, it would be nice not to leave such a mess of hosts (companies where I can park them) and small little nibblets... but the camera just craps out at the worst moments. So this is short:

Ollie went to the top of the barn with a balloon and a parachute and they were going to have a race down, and as you see, it crapped out before we could see the lovely graceful drop off the light objects: and then I still had to get a ladder and climb on the roof and get the parachute back. And me made me go get the balloon out of the dogs before they popped it, as if the balloon was important.

Well, now that I got that off my chest, back to the Bobcat. We only have it for another day and there is a lot to do with it.

Oh, and one of the dog videos I accidentally selected YES about nudity and added the regular tag of DOG and got... and unseemly number of hits. Yikes. I don't suppose the people who found it were particularly amused.

Okay, I just went back out and made a video of the Bobcat in motion and the camera is definitely not working right. I need a camera to do this blog and although it is not badly broken, I think I have to buy a new one. No one really fixes stuff anymore.

Lot of bellyaching in here for such a nice day, weather's good, Jim's busy with the machine, things are looking up.

Here is Virgil and Lula.

now i can do a proper entry

Let's do the dogs first. Then I will apologize for being late with this blog... or maybe I will mix everything up.

Again, all the videos are in here. There is a lot of junk in there and I will go through them one by one now. One cute girl here.

Hit refresh if you can't see anything and let me know if you need another format to look at these.

These two are available for adoption. Duke, shepardish black and brown, and Natasha, pit mix. See them in action here. And again here. Someone must know someone who wants a nice dog! One more of these two. Yet another.

Completely inane useless video http://glencadia.com/videos/08may15/MVI_9442.MOV. Birds sound nice and I think Jim is trying to figure out my camera since he left his at home. Or I didn't know it was on. Nothing to see here, keep moving.

Here are Rooster and Buffy, who are now back home. So again, too late and more or less useless. But you see that Rooster started to hate Gustov... although they started out great buddies. And Rooster liked everyone else (except maybe Buffy sometimes...). Here this is. And again here. And again. More of these two.

Okay, break from dogs.

Some chickens wouldn't go in the house last night and then they got out and after spending 20 minutes trying to catch them or drive them home, I gave up and went in. I thought I would get them this morning but they WERE GONE. Not a feather left. I guess if you keep chickens, you can't be sentimental about them. They just are not all going to make it. Here is one of the chickens who no longer seems to be wandering this world. Ollie called this one the wanderer. I liked her: she was the smallest and most adventurous and now she is ate up by a critter.

Samantha, Amaye, Gracie, Tubu, Betty Lou the other day with Jim here. Same group, same day here.

I think only Gracie here.

Grey day today. They are planting beans in the field next to us (green beans). Here you see the grey weather as Ollie trudges off to the school bus past the plowed and planted field.

Beany, Betty Lou, by Jim here. Same two. More of them. Another.

How about some geese?

How about some sparrows procreating? I saw them doing it but I think I missed it with the video. Ollie and I rescued a blue bird caught in some wool (Ollie put it in the bird house for their nest but that was a bad idea.) Then the blue birds left. They're like that. I love blue birds but if you touch the box, graze the pole with the tractor or something, they leave and that's it. Some damn sparrows moved in. I worked hard to keep the blue birds here and I did not build houses for sparrows. And now they are procreating. Humpf!

Helmut not listening to me.... Gracie and Muri should be around here somewhere too.

Family here.

Gracie, Muri, Gustov and Butch. Here.

Here are the rest of them: Tibu, Helmut (somewhere), Beany (somewhere), Maggie Lou, Betty Lou, (where are we, Georgia or New York?), Princess, all running into the bean field... is it planted yet or not?

So my wife got a little cut on her knee running to see our son at preschool in some sort of performance and got a tiny scratch. A week later is started to hurt but she said she doesn't want to go the doctor and that she shouldn't take antibiotics because she's 8 months pregnant. Then the other day it started to hurt, so no more waiting, we went and she's been out of commission and I did a 2 minute web search and concluded that antibiotics (common ones) are pretty much safe at this late stage and I SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT SEARCH right away... sounded right, no drugs when pregnant... but wrong. Okay, everyone is fine now. Antibiotics are great, overused but great. Hopefully they will continue to work for many more generations.

Cute Muri here with my cute daughter. Dark video but cute.

Had some trouble getting Muri to leave the barn... but now he does. Also, he follows Jim around. Here. More barn and Muri.

Horses are banging to get out of the stable and get out on the field. Cat is watching from up on the bean. Muri is around here. Folks are chatting. Morning in the barn here.

Time to dance.

The end.

mocha doesn't swim... only oscar really SWAM...

Okay, here we go. Here are Uncle Charley (Duke) and Gustov wrestling. Duke (brown and black and white) is for ADOPTION and Gustov is mine (almost all black). Gustov will be castrated on Tuesday... he's about 10 months old and I would like to wait but the other dogs are not pleased with his adolescent antics, as you will see as the videos progress.

Here is one with Wellington, Gracie, Django, and mine (Butch, Gustov, Uncle Charley). I thought this format would be one I could embed in the blog but it didn't work. Instead, it downloads a file to your hard which links to the video on my site... It's a good little clip with Ollie saying hello to Wellington and all so if it doesn't work, leave a comment (easier to do now).

I was thinking I could make a Youtube channel (or another video host) with all these videos and embed them here. But that's more work.

If you can't get the video to work in your browser, try reloading the page. Works for me.

Same dogs (Gracie, Wellington, Django) with kids on swings and conversation about dogs and a busy barn... Here.

More of the same with tadpole... etc.

Mocha and kids. Ollie banging on a box for no good reason. Then he gives Lotti Lou a push and climbs the ladder.

Oscar and kids... same ladder.

Bucket pulley in an old barn. Lotti going to look at dogs... a few. Here.

More pulley... no dogs that I can see. Here.

No dogs for sure. Chicken babies. Better not be any dogs! Here.

Here is the longest video. Samantha, Oscar, Mocha, Simon off on a long toot: water, fields, roads... And as we see, only Oscar swims.

Same dogs. More chance to swim.

Wellington, Mocha, Beany, Django (who is always WAY back in the rear). Here. See, here he comes, sort of.

More of the above.

More of the above again.

Beanie never really gets with the program. Same guys here.

This one doesn't want to work! No dogs anyway... horses. Being mean.
