[Leica] Don's PAW December 8

[don.dory at gmail.com (Don Dory)]

After a busy week I was invited to an open house by Gary(he was in a PAW
several weeks ago) to his "farm" Trillium Farms.  I had to change some
plans but managed to get from N. Carolina near Asheville to a very small
town on the Georgia border with Tennessee.

Starting with Gary and Gertrude you get a since of his respect for the
animals that call his farm home.  Gertrude is a running duck form Indonesia
that doesn't fly.  He raised her from a hatchling.

Next is his pride and joy, Buster, a Scottish Highland bull.  Something
over 2000 pounds of affection and determination.

Gary converted a commercial chicken house into a barn and then decorated it
for the open house.  This is Bora under the dancing lights.

Considering the season you had to have Santa.  Notice the smaller part of
the Nutcracker collection.

If you have a farm for children then you have bunnies,

Be good, be well, and treasure those moments and friends that will surprise
you with the depth and meaning of their time and life.
