What an interesting animal. You photos are wonderful and show me such vivid detail. You are going to need to watch Toto because he may be of the bloodline what will have him trying to get back to Kansas. Thanks for your visit and comment about my silly making a snow angel. The falling was easy...how I got up was a struggle. And Bud could not help because he was taking the photos.

Actually, I am always going to put Friday's Hunt with weekend reflections and post it on (my Friday). I have been to the I.O.M formy first flight when I was 9-10 years old. Athough we used to own an old converted fishig boat and the first weekend we had it, we took it over to the I.O.M.

I've never seen one that I can remember of. Thank you.<br />Your dog named Toto is my favorite vote, all around. We had a little dog named Toto, she was half Dachshund and them some more smaller type other half. A very nice little dog that as an escaped puppy begged Mrs. Jim and our daughter, then preschool, to be adopted. Our later dog, Katrin, a small French Toy Poodle, looked more like yours. She was an adult, belonging to our friend who died.<br />..<br />We have visited N.Z. and Australia, including Tasmania on a Princess cruise. I'd liked to have heard one of your lectures. We won't ever visit Malawi though we have been to Egypt. Also Ireland, but stopped driving up before hitting North Ireland. Have you been to the Isle of Man? We love it, my mother's family were Manx and the line has been traced. I don't have that anymore if I had, but they Google (John Corkhill--with or without an "h").<br />TMI again (I'm sorry), but I love your travel animal pictures.<br />..
