A wonderful break in the weather today...even sunshine! The animals are preparing for an exciting month- it is birthday month for Paco and Luigi (and Grandpa Tom, among others...)...also Valentine's Day and President's Day and Election Day...I was thinking that Paco and Luigi might want to do some advertising for the Democratic Party!

Strolling in the sunshine.

Boulder basks on the terrace.

Paco and Papa...and fresh carrot juice from the juicer!

Sometimes I feel like a field researcher...

Doing my "research" by the feeder.

There's no messing with Isabella!

Luigi often has this cute surprised expression.

Seeking shelter in the morning.


Toby and a brand new ball.

The hens get a special treat (some of the donkeys' sweet grain!).
