    Chicken Attacked by Mountain Lion

    Just a consideration: Cat teeth are filthy so you might have to get a broad spectrum antibiotic for your poor girl. Good luck!

    Books, books and more books!

    I remember reading “The Scarlet Letter”. I loved it. Did you know there is an error in it? I also read “House of Seven Gables” by Hawthorne. We read “Tale of Two cities” and parts of Canterbury Tales and “Hamlet”. I think now kids read more contemporary works. My daughter’s 4th grade teacher...
