This weekend the British forces Animal Rehoming Centre near us held a clean-up morning. One way or another we are becoming quite involved with BARC. Our neighbour Laura works there, Jim has just taken on a role as vice-chair of the committee, and of course it’s where Bella came from. So we spent Saturday morning…

I looked at the BARC blog and it’s wonderful to see that you’re making a difference for those sweet animals in your neck of the woods!! What a sweet picture of Bella & Macy!! I hope that the Pointer featured on the Blog and Trio find wonderful forever homes–The mosiac piece is lovely and the jam would be able to find a home with me too! 🙂 Looks like you’ve had a nice weekend! Hope your rain has stopped and your pups have gotten to be outside!!
By the way, THANK YOU to you and your husband for your thoughts about Sam! I appreciate your insight and comments–It helps to get them from those on the “ouside looking in” because I am way to close to this whole thing! Stay tuned…I’m meeting with them later this afternoon.
As usual, I poured a cup of coffee and sat down to blog-hop, much more interesting than reading the morning paper,and after following the crumbs, I discovered your delightful blog! Count me as one of your followers. I am so tickled to arrive here, and will look forward to each post!
