I am all for opening up Cuba as long as the US doesn't go in and mess it up with fast food joints and other garbage that we tend to generate. Raul Castro should take care of that though.

Your day seems so peaceful. Minus the dentist which reminds me that I owe mind about $400 which I can't pay yet because unpaid maternity leave. I'll give them their damn money. <br />I'm glad you and your family and chickens are well. <br />xoxo<br />RachelRachelVBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10312736736551027564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-35916652492477856302015-01-07T10:41:33.006-05:002015-01-07T10:41:33.006-05:00I could do a whole rant on that 'living in sin...I could do a whole rant on that 'living in sin' thing, about how the dominant religion here has put a stranglehold on how people who love each other can and cannot be together or if how they are being together is good or sinful. who gave them the right to claim that an 'unmarried' couple is living in sin? people are 'married' when they decide to live together and be a unit. that whole ceremony thing is totally after the fact and means nothing. this is a perfect example of why I think religion is bad.<br /><br />great shot of the hawk.

That was heartbreaking. <br /><br />Catrina- Yay! Indeed! Congratulations the family!<br /><br />Denise- You are so right. <br /><br />Jenny o- I know exactly what you mean.<br /><br />Angella- True. A lot of life going on here all the time.<br /><br />Elizabeth- One used to come and sit on the clothesline support to watch the chickens every night as they got ready for bed. Freaked me out.<br /><br />Jo- No. I know what you mean. And you're right.<br /><br />Gail- I think that's probably what Miss Dovie does. <br />May your appointment go easily and well.<br /><br />Steve Reed- I think you're right on both counts.

I'm sure there ARE some people quaking in their boots!<br /><br />I think it's great that you let your chickens wander the yard. Don't you think if they had the ability (and intellect) to make a choice, they'd choose a briefer, more free life over a long life in a coop?Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-86578460888340641672015-01-07T09:37:43.965-05:002015-01-07T09:37:43.965-05:00Oh dear, I have a dentist appt today, I wish it wa...Oh dear, I have a dentist appt today, I wish it was over. Hawk is beautiful and scary. I did not know that chickens were like that after going to roost. I don't think it would do me much good, the wild chicken roosts really high up in the neighbors tree.

It caught a pigeon, and I was fasincated, watching it stand on it and peck at it, til I realised it was still alive. Bleurg. Then something startled it, and it took off down the lane carrying its prey. It was just like a ... a nature program, pathetic as that sounds.
