A Great Outfielder

This is a quick post of photographs. After several grey, wet days, this beautiful, sunny day beckoned us out-of-doors to play catch.

HoneyPie is one great outfielder. I happened to have my phone during our play time and caught photos of her in action.

Her herding instincts are easy to see. I know very little about training herding dogs, though I have taught her ‘direction’. She will herd the chickens in at night.

I enjoy watching her play frisbee. She is adroit and remarkably fast for legs that are only 4″ long!

Down and waiting…
Watching, watching for which direction to go.
Signal seen.
She’s off!
Tracking carefully.
Poised for the catch.
Score!!
Pleased with success.
Go again?
Buster is still learning.
Ready whenever you are!

Well, time to head back outside…

The Truth of the Matter

Primaries are coming our way here in Virginia this June. I am planning on working the polls. It is important for we Virginians to vote primaries. It is where elections are made when choosing the candidate of your party of choice.

We are voting in a new Governor this fall. This post is not to endorse one over the other, but rather to point out a ‘fact’ the democratic runner has said that is totally false.

She has said she supports gun control because it kills more of our Virginia children than anything. She is wrong. The truth of the matter is abortion kills more of our Virginia children than anything. The truth of the matter is abortion is the number 1 killer in our country of all Americans. Not heart failure, cancer or people killing with guns.

Abortion leads the way in the sad death of our next generation…

The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable. ~~~James A. Garfield
