A new home in the hills

Scott & Deidre sold the house on Scotch Bush & bought a beautiful lot in Pattersonville which is west of Schenectady. It has all the amenities, water, septic, power, even cable but no house! They plan to build one but.........

.......this will be their home for the next few months

The gazebo has a ceiling fan & tv so acts as another room as long as it's warm out.

This is the beautiful view they have

The dogs love it

There's this huge pole barn for extra storage

Complete with washer & dryer & extra refrigerator

He has his equipment all ready to go

Of course they have chickens already

The kind with pantaloons!

Doggy heaven

They plan to build the house back in the woods to the right of the pole barn. That will give them a beautiful view of the hills
Love Val😍

Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners. We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Liza's treat ball

This is one of the most important things in our house - it is Liza's treat ball! I bought this about 9 or 10 years ago & it had a "trap door" where the gaping hole is & when you put treats in it you could control how easily they would fall out as the ball rolled around. Liza learned that if she rolled it down the stairs the treats would usually fall out which is why it looks this way. I have tried super glue etc. but it never stays together! It is sadly beaten & broken but try as I may I have never been able to find another one like it. I have spent hours looking & have bought many similar but nothing will ever take it's place. She knows where it is almost all the time - usually keeps it in her bed - but when it's missing she just paces the house until someone helps her find it. She used to be able to hold it in her mouth like this by just hooking it onto her eye tooth Now she just puts her bottom jaw into the opening like this There is a rit...
