Zach Graduates from Border Patrol Academy

Brother Bobby joined Liz, BT, Mary and Mary in Artesia, NM on the occasion of Zach's graduation and commissioning. Zach distinguished himself as one of the best shots in his class while in training.

Zach stayed two months longer at the FLETC campus for Spanish language training before assignment in Laredo. Dalton stayed with the Meads.

A very special woman

January 1, 2008 was celebrated with some black eyed peas, a few kodak moments and construction of a dog fence. Many folks let their dogs run. There is a lot of running room but sometimes visiting dog packs aren't much on manners.

In fact we have had a couple of vet bills from neighbor dogs attacking our Australian Cattle Dog, Duke. I am blessed to have a wonderful help mate, Mary who helps with fencing, nursing, cooking and whatever else that may happen on Lazy Day Farm.
