I didn't realize it had been six months since I was here last. Time flies... Dani is still our little neurotic pup, but she is doing so much better. She is now walking on a leash! This a funny story.

Several days before Hurricane Sally crashed into the Gulf Coast - about 50 miles west … Continue reading A lot going on
