A dog and her ball

-

Those who have followed my blog know Hannah and her story. If you missed that post, just go to "review" and click on Hannah.
One day I gave her one of my old softballs, and she just jumped and jigged around it until I threw it for her. I didn't teach her a thing about fetch, she came by it naturally. She LOVES her ball.
I colored the ball in these photos because Hannah being black, is like a silhouette in these photos, a red ball was a must. This one is actually brown, and if the ball looks hairy, {string wrapped cork} thats because it is. Tessa chews off the covers of the softballs, which are Hannah's favorite. She doesn't like tennis balls much at all. Just so you know, softballs have many different cores. The things we learn from our dogs...

Belle Starr's Grave

" Well behaved women rarely make history." *** Her grave as it is today *** I made the trip to Eufaula Oklahoma a couple of weeks ago for a family get together. I was going to visit the grave site of Belle Starr on this trip, but read up on the burial location before going. The site is rather run down, on private property and on a dead end road. You have to rustle up the owners and tramp through an unkempt weedy trail. The original stone has been removed or is gone from what I understand, so I decided not to go. I find this disheartening, that a well known historical figure, albeit outlaw, from the old west does not have a more revered grave site. I think the sad fact is, most of the famous people we know from that time have also been left in obscure places and have faded away, forgotten. ***Her grave as it was originally*** Belle Starr was "The Bandit Queen," associated with Jesse James and the Youngers. She once made the comment to a newspaper reporter -" I

My Little Adventure

   I took an actual vacation this year and traveled to Wyoming. I had never so much as driven to the panhandle of Oklahoma by myself , but I had no qualms, and jumped in a rental car with my cameras and went. The only thing I reserved, was a tour on the Pryor Mountains to see the wild horses.    I've never had so much fun in my life. I drove the Bear Tooth  and the Big Horn Mountain drives, saw the Tetons, Jackson Hole and a smidgeon of Yellowstone.   And of course the wild horses. Something I have wanted to do for years.                                                         The Tetons at sunset.                               Saw these buffalo in Meeteetse, the photo below was taken in Cody.    I met several interesting women while I was there and enjoyed hearing their stories and talking with them. I spent most of my time just driving the country and looking for wildlife and taking photos. It was an amazing journey.
