Vermont – Farm animals

September 30, 2026

0

Of course a place called, “Fat Sheep Farm and Cabins” will have farm animals. As expected, they have sheep. Ken and I had fun watching the “running of the sheep.” Every morning, the sheep, followed by the farm hand and the dog, Coco, would run by our cabin to their field down the hill. They […]

Mr. Ken and I decided to explore a different area of Vermont for a change. We had the wonderful opportunity to stay at Fat Sheep Farm and Cabins in Hartland Vermont. Fat Sheep Farm & Cabins is a 60-acre working farm and lodging destination located in Hartland Vermont. Established in 2017, it offers an authentic, […]

September 4, 2019 is when our beloved Sir Oliver entered our lives. He “spoke” to me from across the floor at the Buckingham Palace Gift Shop. Of course we celebrated with cake, ice cream and a balloon! Sir Oliver is sitting at the place of honor, right on top of the cupcakes. The whole crew […]

Creepy and annoying marketing

September 9, 2026

0

I must admit I am not a fan of “cold-call” or “cold-mailing” marketing. All these things do is annoy me and make me sure I would never do business with that company. A recent experience went way over the line though. So I get an envelope in the mail, addressed to me. It had no […]

Knee Surgery Update

September 2, 2026

This knee journey has been tough, both physically and mentally. I am diligently going to outpatient physical therapy three times a week and doing my at home exercises several times a day. My muscle strength and balance are great. Unfortunately my flexion (bend of knee) is a tad behind where I should be. Since I […]

Montpelier VT – Random pictures

August 19, 2026

2

As you can tell by my many blog posts about Montpelier Vermont, I took lots of pictures. It is so easy to do with one’s cell phone, even for someone like me who usually ends up taking a picture of my shoes instead. 🙂 The Vermont History Museum is right next to the state capital. […]

A day in the life . . .

August 12, 2026

A day in the life of a knee replacement patient. Ack, this surgery and the recovery is not for the faint of heart. The first few days. A blur of pain, nausea and trying to move a little bit without too much screaming. I was given a nerve block for the surgery and for many, […]

Teddy Bear Love

August 5, 2026

The news is so depressing these days – wars, cyclospora, etc., etc. We all need things that brings a smile to our faces. I hope this post will do just that. So, I love teddy bears. This love affair started long before we welcomed all of our British guys into our lives. For my birthday, […]

Montpelier VT – State Fair More Sights and Eats

July 29, 2026

State Fairs are wonderful examples of Americana. I just loved this message on the back window of a car in the parking lot. God Bless America and our Veterans! Not only were there live animals at the fair, but also sculpted ones. I really wanted to buy this moose and take him home to put […]

Montpelier VT – State Fair Sights and History

July 22, 2026

There was a lot more to the Rutland State Fair than cute cows and goats. Even the road there was an adventure. I just love riding around Vermont, everywhere you drive, you see rolling green hills. Hah, I guess that is why they call it the Green Mountain State. Here the view as we drove […]
