First Saturday in December at The Lazy Vegan

It was a freezing morning on the first Saturday of December at The Lazy Vegan- frost everywhere! The donkeys are definitely growing their winter coats- they look much fuzzier lately, and Paco is even sporting a few curls! Boulder wants to spend even more time inside when it is cold- and the pups park it right next to the heater vents! And I think I've used enough exclamation points to discuss the colder weather! Be sure to check out our NEW Disco holiday video at the bottom of this posting- we're getting pretty good!

In the afternoon Boulder got out a bit.



He likes to hang out when the dogs are out.



When I was out with the dogs and Boulder, I heard a really loud rumble and looked up to see four jets flying in formation- it was quite the sight! Then they circled around and came back toward the house- I took a ton of photos but only two came out o.k.


There wasn't an airshow or anything like that going on- and they didn't look like military planes- so I don't know what was going on! Here they are above our big pine tree.

Weegie looks adorable.



I got an email today with this amazing elephant rescue story. You can see the video of Ned, too, if you visit the elephant sanctuary website: http://www.elephants.com/Ned/nedstart.htm

The USDA confiscated Ned, an elephant who was 1,000 pounds underweight, from a Florida circus trainer. The skin-and-bones images reflect perhaps as many as 20 years of deprivation, but Ned held on for a better day and now it has come at the elephant sanctuary in Tennessee.
