Coyote upgrade! The previous version was a possibly-plastic cut-out that was staked into the ground and very susceptible to getting knocked around by a strong wind. THIS coyote is a definitely-plastic fully-formed action figure that, I assume, is probably anchored...
I'm busy these days, so maybe you've noticed fewer updates here on Keely's Way. I think I will probably start sending out the email newsletter only once a week, in order to keep from sending dupes to people when I've skipped an update day. Busy with what, you ask? My...
The rain set in for several days here, which has made walking Keely a challenge! She hates being wet ergo she refuses to walk in the rain, but she's a mortal doggo and does need to pee at some point. Which mean I was tracking the weather radar like I'm paid to do it,...
Keely was either on the scent of the Lake Ella Fox or she was just distracted the whole way 'round the pond! There was lots of weaving to and fro. The night was a bit chilly and yet it is getting up into the 70s°F by noon, and nature is taking it as her cue to start...
For some reason I woke up a bit after 1:00 am and then could not fall back asleep for a couple of hours! Ugh! Which means that today I slept in and we did not get out for a walk until nearly 8:00 am. Keely was very confused and dragged me on our normal Saturday route,...
Another 6:00 am morning! It's weird to be putting myself on such a schedule nearly a year after I quit the day!job, but I feel like I've finally hit the "recovery" stage of leaving that job, as opposed to the "still shocky" stage I was in through most of 2022. I...
Blustery, rainy, and chilly morning for us, so I was actually the first one up and about for a while. It was raining during our normal wake-up time so Keely noped out and decided to just keep sleeping! I'm so jealous. There was finally a break in the rain between...
It was just chilly enough that neither me or Keely wanted to roll out of bed before 6:00am for a walk in the dark...but we did, at least, we did by 6:30am. Dawn was peeking over the trees: The storm yesterday was very fierce (tornado warning! which most everyone...
Another chilly day here, with slightly lower humidity which is the best part. We're getting another big storm move through tomorrow, which is good as it is filling the water table back up. Lake Ella is not "full to the brim" but we're far out of drought territory now,...
