I haven't put up a pic post in a bit, mainly because a) good shots were few and far between, and b) this week at work was a crap show of unprecedented intensity. (For example: Not one, but TWO orders went from cancelled to uncancelled just in time to be late; and the Microsoft thing ended my OT day after about an hour and a half standing around doing very little.) At any rate, now I'm rested, cleaned up, and the girls are snoozing, so I have both time and energy... for the moment.
Let's go back to last Friday morning first...

We saw something, apparently about to pounce on a bird for breakfast, but it seen us and hi-tailed it into the ravine. At first I had thought it a squirrel, but Misty don't get this excited about squirrels. Best guess? A weasel |
