heartland

From Strange Maps...LOVE this print! As usual, Strange Maps is wonderfully informative, giving all sorts of information about the term "heartland."

On a different note, our 4 dog household went down to 3 this past weekend, when we lost our resident Methuselah, Curtis. He'd had two knee replacements, plus a third leg was swollen for no discernable reason, and on Friday his legs finally gave out. We had to carry him to the car Saturday, which was not an easy feat. I love Rottweilers, but MAN they are big! Anyway, I never thought I'd say this, but after living with 4 dogs for nearly two months, the house seems so quiet with just 3! We're heading to a local shelter this afternoon, on the look-out for another Methuselah who might need a home.
