best friends

Right now, Cash is at his favorite place in the whole world, the farm. R's parents have a long private road that leads up to their house and a long driveway. Cash is usually unable to contain himself by the time we reach the house. As soon as you open the car door, he and Sheba zoom off together and race around. Sheba is getting older and slower, and although she has lived her whole life outside, she is one of the happiest dogs I know. I just hope by the time we get around to building our house on the farm Cash is still young enough to appreciate it.

Some recent pictures of the best buddies:

Sheba and Cash are both very well trained. Sometimes we like to see who follows the commands the fastest. It's usually Sheba.

And for good measure, some recent snapshots of the cats.
Zeus is sad to inform you that I put the suitcase away this week. He is now forced to lay on other dark surfaces in order to spread as much cat hair love around the house as possible. He needs to take a lesson from Sophie, who prefers to lay on light colored surfaces.
