By Jackie Morris...probably a hare. But for first of the month, I'll say rabbit rabbit...because really, hare, hare just doesn't have the right ring to it!
And then there was the Cheshire Cat!
Illustrator E. H. Shepard drew this for a limited edition book bag. Jan. 18 is Pooh Day
On a lake walk last Saturday I met Sophie, when I paused to figure out how to get across a muddy patch. She and her walker waited for me, so I asked if I could take her photo. She was a beautiful and well behaved (probably 7 year old rescued) grey bull dog. I thought of my friend Cathy's former white and brown bulldog, now gone. Cathy has a new mutt who is part sheep dog, a big difference!

Today's quote:
In The Trees, Conrad Richter wrote: "Everywhere she went the trees stood around her like a great herd of dark beasts. Up and up shot the heavy butts of the live ones. Down and down every which way on the forest floor lay the thick rotting butts of the dead ones. Alive or dead, they were mostly grown over with moss. The light that came down here was dim and green. All day even in the cabin you lived in a green light."
