Weekend at the Ranch

We drove up for a weekend at the ranch the day after Thanksgiving. We keep all of our Christmas decorations out there and we were anxious to get our stuff up. Some of our neighbors decorated the week before! The ranch is about 13 miles away from Canton's 1st Monday. So, we decided to spend half the day there over in dog alley. I guess since we've always had so much access to 1st Monday with the ranch so close I've gotten over the novelty of 1st Monday trade days. But, I've never gotten over the novelty of dog alley. I love going there! They have tons of puppies and pretty much any other animal you can imagine. And, they let you hold them all. I held a bantam that was just like Belle (my stuffed chicken... see previous post).

Dan shot a deer. Morgan kept yelling, "touch! touch!" and then whacking the heck out of that dead deer with his hand. Dan commented that the PETA people better not see our video... ha! John and Dan just finished processing that deer last night. So, our garage freezer is looking good.

I'm learning how to edit my video and this is a very half-hearted attempt to do something during Morgan's short nap today. It still took me the entire time. You will need to click view in high quality (right under the video in blue) when you get to Youtube. Enjoy!
