Thank You, Hurricane Matthew, For Sticks

We hope everyone to our east is recovering from the devastation of Hurricane Matthew, but we thank it for a great present – sticks!

Our Tree of Life is so huge that we have fresh sticks in the yard after any normal wind storm. With the gusty winds that we received far west of Hurricane Matthew, the Tree of Life gave us lots and lots of fresh chewing material.

We know our time is limited, because Hu-Dad will gather them all up and remove them from our yard. So we made the best of the time we had with a little stick party.

Stick games are good in photos, but even better in video. So, of course, we dedicate this Film Friday to . . . Sticks! Just click on the play button below and enjoy!

    My dog enjoys the simple pleasures too, and reminds me to do the same.

    Always love to see the herd in action. Kevin MacLeod’s music is such a good fit.
