Since we were on the way to Vermont via New York we stopped at Brian and Jeanne's place near Potsdam NY and visited for an overnight. Sadly Jeanne was in Mass. so Brian was stuck with us. We had such a nice time reminiscing and feeding his cattle and pigs. So out of my element but I enjoyed it very much. His cows are fairly friendly and trained to come to the fence when he is outside. We fed them apples, although it took me several tries to get it in their mouth without letting their tongue touch me, and believe me they have long tongues!
Off to Massachusetts, specifically Lakeville to see our friend Pat, gorge on some local seafood and have a little visit with Aunt Betty. Both of the cats enjoy hanging around outside Pat's house and Boots especially likes the view from the window sill inside! Les had to have a project so he power-washed and stained the back of the house and put up new lights, have to say looks fantastic! All is well in that neck of the woods so far and we intend to revisit in October before we head to Michigan, Ohio and Indiana.
All for now...Ciao!
