What could be in that hole??and Little ES Landscape

New paintings to frame for show..

ES Mini Landscape, Bayford,Va.

OH MY IS she in trouble...

HI, Well. I started drawing the little landscape outside, sitting next to the pine tree with my board in my lap,sweetly drawing and noticed she(Sadie the Puppy) was gone.... into the woods.

 I found her by a large pine root ball which had fallen over and left a hole under it.. oh blasted what could be in that hole...

 I envisioned an animal poking it's head out and biting her nose.oh no.. she came up from the hole with a dead squirrel. A Long Pause from me.. oh NO..

We ran around the backyard, and John said I never exercise... ha... I tried cheese.. I yelled-- but it's Cabot Cheese.. the good cheese.( I guess this wouldn't work for a commercial would it??? )  not even a sniff.. However canned catfood did it and I grabbed the object,thrust it into a plastic bag and put it on the roof of the playhouse. John said he hopes a buzzard comes for it.. ha ha..

 Good grief. I need the peace and solace I get from painting..Hope you have a peaceful fall weekend. love to you,Diana
