George McGovern's JournalHorsie Saturday -- Last week Maddie and Pete were just hanging out together.
And then it snowed.
Maddie maybe thinking "Hey, what's this falling on my delicate back?"
Pete and Maddie conferring whilst Mommy brings out Maddie's blankie.
Maddie's never really been thrilled about being blanketed.
She used to make Mommy chase her around, but this time Maddie was better. She settled pretty quickly.
Pete looked on. For himself Pete has NEVER taken to the blanket. Didn't take Mom long to realize that's simply his choice. Besides Pete does grow a good and fluffy winter
coat. But the least he could do was try to offer advice.
Laurie checked Pete's grain bucket before going on to the next chore.
So Pete started in on his hay while Maddie contemplated her next move.
"What the hey, let's go eat hay."
Pete went back to his bucket. And they lived to graze another day.
But we just couldn't leave without revealing "The Ultimate Paddock Poop Pile Shot".

It worked. Just posted the image above. Clicked on clear results and repeated the process for the next photo.

Laundry Day Put Away Starring Shadow and Mostly KC.
KC was having a normal relaxing afternoon when someone plopped
a laundry basket on the bed.
He took it in stride, turned around and resettled while Shadow looked
sleepily on.
Bored, apparently, KC and Shadow switched positions on the bed.
Looking to shake things up daddy teased KC with a white sock.
In his haste, however, to get away from the sock KC rolled over,
stuck to a dish towel.
Untangling himself he grabbed the nearest sock and held
on for dear life.
And wore himself out.
Daddy dangled another sock. KC knocked it away.
It is said in football, the best defense is a good offense.
KC agrees. He sunk his claws into daddy's stretchy shirt and held on.
Finally daddy left him alone.
Laundry continued to be put away.
And things inside quieted down, safe and warm from the
outside snowstorm.
Let's see if Image Chest works for photo uploading.
Hmmm — First Try Produces Good Result. We'll concoct
a whole post through https://imgchest.com/ now and see
what happens.
HOLY CATS -- I nearly forgot it's KC Wednesday -- a timely LOUD MEOW served to remind!
KC is at home here. Might call him "kitty-in-a-kloset."
When he emerges KC likes to take over our bed.
Or camp on the couch.
Or hop up on the computer desk — check things out.
Look around.
Or just plain relax.
KC's always aware of his surroundings.
But, for tonight, he's just glad you, his followers, hung in and waited for
Dad to get his old butt in gear. A sleepy KC thanks you kindly.
(Please forgive any photo duplication. I had no time to double check.)
