Meanwhile back at the ranch...

"Farm livin' is the life for me.
Land spreadin' out so far and wide
Keep Manhattan, just give me that countryside".

William is still exploring New York City.

Who needs 'Sex in the City' when you can have 'Sex in the middle of a farm Road'.

Brad took this photo of these two love birds. He thought they might have been cold and were cuddling, lol. To get away from the paparazzi, they scooted into Echo's pasture. Earlier that same day Brad remarked, upon seeing a hummingbird flying amongst the blooms, "It's small because it's probably a baby one". Who needs the bright lights of Broadway when your married to such a bright spark. Never a dull moment.

William might be outside the Today Show studios in the morning, waving like an idiot. lol.

William is in the Big Apple

His plane was seven hours late. He got to his hostel at 4am! I was about to come completely unglued with the thought of him on the New York subway at this hour.. when he came on line.. phew. Safe and sound.

His family had a large farm (for the time) on Manhattan in the 1630's. I wonder what those Dutchmen would think of the old place now.

I'm your Huckleberry!

I found our new dog! I have been calling people selling Australian Shepherds and a few have sent me pictures. Soon as I saw this pup below I knew she was our Huckleberry. She's not weaned yet, so we have to wait to get her a few more weeks. She lives in Idaho.

Meanwhile, William has just left London. His flight was delayed because he's flying to Iceland and the airport there was closed because one of the local volcanoes erupted. As you can see below, he's finally airborne.

Today is Williams last full day in England.

Since graduating and after a short stay with his grandparents, William has been staying with his big brother. Saturday they all went to Great Yarmouth on England's east coast.

William in the North Sea.

Keegan said this is how William always carries Amelia.

Amelia gets rescued by her mother.

Keegan, King of the North Sea!

Amelia looks concerned but bravley hangs on as her dad starts to climb, lol.

Keegan, his wife Nicky and Amelia.

My two sons.

Monday William starts his journey West.

William's great adventure.

William has graduated from the University Of Huddersfield in Yorkshire, England, with honours (Brit spelling) in History. His landlords kindly gave him a ride to the train station and he headed south to Bedford to stay a few days with my parents and visit his Uncle Joe and Auntie Ray. His older brother, Keegan picked him up to stay with him and his wife Nicky and cute little Amelia for a few days and then William continued his adventures by flying to Edinburgh, Scotland.

He having a wonderful time sight seeing around in Edinburgh. He keeps me updated by calling me from his cell phone and I use Google Earth to see where he's at. It's a bit of a hoot.

He'll be back in England tomorrow to stay with Keegan, Nicky and Amelia, before heading off on his next adventure.

Here's William and his niece Amelia playing the other day.
