ANN BAILEY: Getting ready for winter
Thanks to a warm-up in temperatures, a week after ice thwarted our attempts to clean the leaves out of our eaves troughs, Brian and I got the job done.

ANN BAILEY: Hard ice makes a hard chore harder
At the top of the to-do list was cleaning the eaves troughs, so on the first Friday of this month, I leaned the ladder up against the house, climbed to the top and stepped out on the roof of our porch.

ANN BAILEY: From one outdoor cat to four indoor cats
The first fall we lived on the farm, we often saw a stray sneaking through the woods behind our house. We put food out at the edge of the woods each night, and, after several weeks, we could stand near her while she was eating.

ANN BAILEY: Saying goodbye to old friends
By far the most challenging part of horse ownership is saying goodbye to the horses when they die. Over the years, my family and I have buried eight horses. All of them lived well into the 20s and beyond, which I think makes it harder, not easier to lose them.
