If you look to the left you will see I have links now. I figured out how to do that all by myself. Yesterday we went to Pet Co, just for fun. Well, we ended up getting a pair of Diamond Doves. They are miniature doves, grey with speckles on their wings. We are beginning to hear them coo a little so I'm hoping they are settling in to their new home. We named them Chester and Belle; we really don't know if they are a boy and girl but it doesn't really matter. I had Diamond Doves about 8 years ago or so and I made the mistake of putting them in a larger cage with big doves and some predator got them. I really liked having doves but this small version is more to having indoors. I promise I won't put them outside. I promise I will care for them. If the people at Pet Co new my tract record for having birds, they might have denied my purchase. We won't tell them about all my failures.

It is smokey and warm here, about 90. There is a fire somewhere, not sure where, and the air is filled with the acrid smoke with an orange glow from the sunlight coming through it.
