Mike, No, not at this time. I don't feel like I have to have all the types anymore, but I'm happy for those who obsess about doing so. I used to be so there, for years it was, having to have all the forms of Aloe deltoideodonta or Kalanchoe beharensis - there are some phreakish plants out there and I had to have them all. Rian, I hope to do the same sometime - the Aloes of South Africa book is coming this month, so I'm a little closer, right?

Looks good & will even look better w/snow! Yup, I'd add some branches on the ground around it, too...if it doesn't bother your dryer vent. Good idea to hot glue them tog...here they would blow away (if loose)! TFS! Jeanne S.

I like to watch the dog shows and see all the interesting breeds, but I'm not sure I saw "Uno" this time around? My friend and SIL have beagles, and honestly, I'd never get one. My friends howls ALL THE TIME!! It ridiculous! My SIL's doesn't howl as much, but is stubborn with a capital S! She is good around her kids, but attacked a dog in their neighborhood. This may not be a Beagle trait, and just their dogs, but they aren't my favorite!!! I've seen too much to want one!

I find that there seems to be a "rule" with adult animals that the behaviour of baby animals and humans is tolerated until they reach a certain age. Our elderly cat put up with a lot of pestering from our baby DD without reacting other than to walk away. I have also seen adult dogs allow puppies to eat their food, chew their ears and so on without snapping as they would at an older animal. That IS an awfully cute video!
