I work in hospice and our patients die comfortable deaths at home. People need to understand they have the power(not to mention the right) to tell doctors no more treatment. Many states now have the death with dignity law to give people with terminal illness the choice to end their lives in comfort ...

It would be no surprise if some people would adopt coyotes and gradually domesticate them just like humans did long ago with dogs.

Beowulfsfriend comments on Jan 11, 2020:

There is talk about reclassifying the Eastern coyote. They are not as aggressive as the Western ones. They are also larger, probably from breeding ith wolves and dogs on their trek East. Coyotes are now seen in most large urban areas. Some people even welcome them, saying they eat more rats than ...

The first and last photos for me. Great pics - something about the composition puts me in mind of the old masters. (painting). Nice work.

I liked the 1st one also but wish the dark areas were a tad bit lighter so there is some definition.

@Besalbub all the names sound familiar but I can't seem to put faces to them - except Waylon.... my cousin's ex-husband was the driver of the fish house truck.... their daughter loved horses & he would never let her get one because of that accident.

Heidi68 replies on Jan 10, 2020:

@Besalbub there isn't a lot of cutting here so Zack is pretty much retired but when I get lucky enough to go to OK/TX my friends let me ride on cattle. I use to have some friends on 101 who had Arabians - they would let me ride when I was without a horse. I also had friends in Sealevel who had Arabians. I rode with them for years. Yes, I have led a wonderful life 😁

Nah, none of that on my bed, and I do miss sharing. My greatest concern is that being a bit tall, I have discovered the joy of sleeping diagonally in a Q bed, with freedom toes! I doubt that would be missed with someone dear to share the bed with . . .

Heidi68 replies on Jan 9, 2020:

@Besalbub yes - it was originally to separate cows for branding. They started playing music a few years ago to make it more fun for the spectators. Matt is AMAZING! Some of the horses are on the smaller size but overall they are about 15 hands. As with all sports (including human sports) some hold up better than others. It can be hard on them but they keep the sand pretty perfect to protect them. My Zack is about to turn 20 and other than pulling a muscle in his back about 10 years ago he has never been lame. Most of these horses are taken better care of than many human children - it is an expensive sport so they take very good care of the horses.

@Besalbub this is Cutting - not exactly a rodeo - it is a show all its own. You have to cut at least 2 cow, preferably 3, in 2 minutes 30 seconds. It should look like a dance or a mirror image. If you notice the rider's hand stays on the horse's neck while working the cow. This is James Payne - really good friend and he is riding another one of my friend's horse PG Heavily Armed.

I still have these books on my coffee table.

Jolanta comments on Jan 8, 2020:

I read all the time. Usually have several books going on at one and the same time. Crime novels, fiction, biographies and whatever takes my fancy. When I finish a book it goes, I give it away, if I didn't I would not be able to move.

Heidi68 replies on Jan 8, 2020:

I do the same. Read & give it away or donate to the library.
