  • One day at a time

    Aug 29, 2024

    Well it is a very cool and quiet morning here in our little valley. The cats have had their breakfast and are taking a nap. I am enjoying my coffee. It will be Fall soon but these cool mornings already feel a little like Fall. Some of the trees are changing color but that is mostly from the dry and hot weather. Our yard has not really needed mowing in the last few weeks. There is still not much rain in the forecast. All the animals are probably looking for water, most of the creeks that normally have water in them are dry. One morning I was...

  • Tyrades! Did you remember your pets in your will?

    Danny Tyree|Aug 29, 2024

    My bachelor Uncle Vernon refused to make out a last will and testament. Twenty-one years ago, he passed away unexpectedly. That left his beloved (but decrepit) English Shepherd dog Fred in a pickle. Luckily, my mother volunteered to adopt Fred and care for him in his final years. Things haven’t always worked out that smoothly for pets. According to the Wall Street Journal, it has taken automated prompts by businesses such as Trust & Will (the online estate-planning service) to remind clueless p...

  • Life as Art:The Art of Perfume Bottles: More Than Just a Container

    Elissa Tracy|Aug 29, 2024

    Perfume, one of the oldest human-made scents, has not only been celebrated for its captivating fragrances but also for the artistry of its containers. The history of perfume bottles is as rich and varied as the scents they hold, dating back to ancient civilizations like Egypt and Rome, where they were first used to store precious ointments and oils. These early examples were more than mere containers; they were symbols of status and craftsmanship, often made from glass, gold, or semi-precious stones. As the centuries progressed, the art of perf...
