Love Where You Live

In the photo above, this group of 7 deer is visiting my home daily right now during my morning coffee-time, then heading over to the neighboring parcel to visit them. I guess our weeds are what they're looking for right now! We love seeing them, and our Australian Shepherd, is learning to tolerate their presence on his turf. I've received LOTS of helpful advice from neighbors on how to attract them better so that I can see more of them (which I would love), but alas, I do not have a fenced property and I live in an open range area, so anything I'd put out to attract the deer (water, mineral licks) would ALSO attract the cattle. Since the Rancher uses water to move his cattle from one area to another where he wants them to be grazing, I really don't want to interfere with that, so I'll enjoy the time the deer give me with my weeds. 

Have a blessed day, everyone!!

What is happening, and just happened to my dear friend, is that insurance companies, due in large part to their losses in California and Florida, are CANCELLING policies for insureds who make claims—especially small claims. My friend who just made this mistake is north of 70 years old, and comes from a time when it was normal to turn in claims that were covered, period. They recently expe...
