Hello everyone! How are you? I am okay. It’s been pretty quiet. Mom has worked every day since the county fair, so there is not much new things to report. I thought I would share a few more pictures from the fair.

This is a Holstein calf from the petting zoo. It wasn’t very interested in people. Mom said that being a petting zoo calf would probably be pretty boring.

This donkey, on the other hand, was pretty fond of everyone. (Mom thought it might be because there was a better chance that the donkey was a pet, rather than a farm animal.)
I hope you all have a good week. Talk to you next week!

Hello everyone! How are you? It has been rather nice here in Wisconsin. The heat has finally cracked some, so it’s not so hot and humid. (I’m glad I’m a bear and the humidity doesn’t bother me as much as it bothers Mom.)

Mom went to the Outagamie County Fair! She mostly goes to look at all the animals! This is a nubian goat!

I love ducks! Mom took this picture of a runner duck for me! Do you like farm animals? Do you have a favorite? Talk to you next week!

July 20th, 2018

Hello everybody! How are you? I am okay. We had a very quiet week around here. Mom worked all week for the whole shift, so we didn’t get to go anywhere cool.

Mom and I are typing up our blog entry kind of late this week. We napped last night, which is the night we usually write up our entry. (I compose, she types!)
We have been watching the food channel on Twitch lately. Twitch is mostly a streaming gaming platform. (Apparently there are a lot of people who like to watch other people play video games.) Mom discovered it for Bob Ross, but that only plays on the weekend. So we follow several ‘always on’ channels to give us something to watch sometimes. (Twitch plays nicely with the VPN on Mom’s ipad. We do turn it off and watchin Netflix too!) Do any of you watch documentaries and instructional TV anywhere else? We’re always on the lookout for new things to watch!
Talk to you next week!

Hello everyone! How are you? I am okay. Mom and I took a nap this afternoon after she got out of work, so I’m hoping we can type up a good entry before she wants to go to bed again. (She does have to work in the morning!)

For my mom’s birthday, one of her friends bought her these little critters. They’re the Calico Critters baby band. Lark, Raven, and Wren, our BJD family, seem to really enjoy the music. It’s sort of like a music box band. They say that they’ll sound even better when Mom finds their piano player! My favorite one is the little accordion player.
Have a great week! I’m hoping the weather cools down a little bit around here so Mom will sit outside! Talk to you next week!

Hello everyone! I hope you’re all having a great week! It’s been pretty hot and humid here in Wisconsin. There has been a lot of mosquitos too, which doesn’t bother me as much as it bothers Mom. (It doesn’t seem to bother Graham or Oliver either, so I don’t know what she’s going on about!)

Last week, Mom had off for her vacation. Oliver, Mom, and I spent a lot of time together.

On Monday, Graham came over, and they went for a walk. (I stayed on the porch in the shade!) Graham brought his new plush elephant with them on the walk. (Mom ended up having to carry it in the end.) Graham is very fond of elephants.
What do you do on your vacation? Mom didn’t want to go away because then she would have to leave Oliver and Graham behind. Do you have any favorite vacation spots near your home?
Talk to you next week!

Hello everyone! How are you? Mom has been on vacation this week. It has been pretty quiet—which isn’t a bad thing. She had some people over on Sunday for her birthday party. On her birthday proper, we went out for lunch with her sister. It was rather quiet.

Yesterday, she went mushroom hunting! Mom just takes pictures. Our identification books are at her sister’s, so we don’t know which kind of mushrooms these are.

I think mushrooms are cool. They grow in all sorts of places! I like how many different forms there are. Some of them can be very dangerous!
Talk to you next week!

Hello everyone! How are you? I am okay. Mom spent all afternoon at a nearby park for something called Team Member Appreciation Day. It was a very pretty day. There was a zoo there—it’s a tiny zoo, but there were some pretty cute animals there!

This is a very pregnant Sicilian donkey. She came and said hi to Mom.

This llama seemed to enjoy getting his picture taken. He even let Mom take a picture of his other side!
I might post a few more pictures next week, but that’s a good start. I hope you all are having a great week, and I will see you later!
