Into the Wild

Matt Johnson Articles

I finally watched Into the Wild tonight and naturally it really got me thinking (hate it when movies do that). The main character, driven to escape “society” goes on a quest to find happiness. The movie chronicles this quest as goes from abandoning the most sacred human relationship, family, to isolating himself in the depths of the Alaskan wilderness. At …

Dar's Cat

Matt Johnson Articles

While meandering through the World of Warcraft the other day I was chatting with a paladin by the name of Dariath, more commonly referred to as Dar. https://thelyrically.com/ Dar was complaining about one of his cats who meows/heowls constantly because she is in heat and it keeps him up all night. This led to a discussion of the many other …

Party with the Anteater

For the longest time I’ve been getting emails that chronicle the life of Pua the tamandua. I am extremely impressed by the relationship that Pua and his owner have. Not only do they two go on many adventures and have a fantastic relationship, but its all available for us to read and watch. Pua & Tamanduagirl are living proof that …

‘Tis the Open Season

Have you ever witnessed the first day of hunting season in a small Montana town? Me neither, until this weekend. While visiting some friends who have recently relocated to Libby, Montana, I had the great opportunity to witness an entire town of 2500 people wearing orange like it was green on St. Patty’s day.

Wild Animals in the Garden

Matt Johnson Articles

As Scott mentioned in his blog, we dream daily about the many ways we can have animals be integrated as a part of our lives. I often ask customers what pets they have at home and am repeatedly baffled by the response I hear too often that they don’t have any because they live in an apartment. In my eyes …

A Mother’s Best Friend

Brittani Articles

Being a mom is much more fun and rewarding than I ever could have imagined. When Bass reaches for me to pick him up my heart nearly swells with love for the little imp and I have to look around and double check that it is really me that he wants to love and not someone more worthy standing behind …

Hello Friends! So I am not an electronically correct person. https://www.caasimada.net It took me a year to figure out my smart phone and now it is falling apart and I dread the day that Matt makes me get a new one that I will have to spend hours agonizing over how to check my messages and which picture should be …
