Paint

I took down our dining room lighting while Elizabeth napped today.

I spray painted it and reinstalled on a shorter chain.

It used to be white with tacky gold trim.

Now it is ‘Oiled Bronze’.

I like it.

Lucy

We have a visitor.
Lucy (Wales Tails Lucy in the Sky) is Kate’s litter mate. She’s going to be a mama this year, we hope.

Before Kat, our friend and Lucy’s owner, passed away we had planned a litter together. This will be the last litter that Kat Seube planned, and my first litter. Bittersweet. I am grateful to Floyd for letting me proceed with the breeding plans.

We selected Kentwood Rhydwen. He’s Lucy’s great grandfather and Kat was hoping to bring back some things that she liked about her early litters.

We are waiting for Lucy to come into season, should be this month. 63 days gestation then two months to grow up a little. Depending in when Lucy comes into season pups should head home November/December.

Here is the pedigree:

Lucy and Tudor

And here are some pictures of Lucy:
She noticed the chickens…

She is also enjoying our daily walks (center) with full sister Kate ( right side) and half brother Bing (left side).
