We are considering getting a Great Pyrenees for our flock next year. Is Abby GP? All your photos are really wonderful. I especially love the one of the frosted oak leaves. Exquisite!

I, too love to stop and listen to my animals munching hay. It’s such a peaceful sound. I’m not a morning person either, but you’re right about wasting the day sleeping in, especially during Fall with Daylight Savings. ugh! It gets dark so early.

Yes, Abby is pretty spoiled especially for a watch dog/guardian dog/ranch dog. She stays home 24/7 but loves every minute of it. She also sleeps outside but Hubby made her a beautiful dog house that could fit two of her size. I think the barn cats appreciate it more than she does though, seems she likes to be out of it most the time.

Shannon & Mary — We get our hay from a haying community about two hours north of us in a gorgeous mountain valley. Their soil is dark and rich and they grow some of the best hay around. We are very fortunate to be able to buy ours directly from the ranch instead of through a broker and we go up and inspect it in the spring… Okay, so our “inspections” are just an excuse to go up there. ;) It is mostly orchard grass with a small amount of alfalfa mixed in. Very fine stemmed and very palatable. :D

I love the foggy picture and of course the frosty oak leaf. Nice pictures, as always (I’ve never seen a bad one on your blog yet :-) ).

That is nice that Abby pays extra attention to the old ones – very sweet. Your hay is so pretty and green!

I love them! I have to say that my favorites are the frost covered leaf and the pooch sitting in the middle of the field. Its such a different life for a farm dog versus my dog. My guy is spoiled as they come and never has to work a day in his life (not to say your guy doesnt probably LOVE working and isnt spoiled, i’m sure he is)

If you wanted to see some pics of my dog, i just posted a few on my blog
