From the camera…

Boots quickly found her favorite spot when we moved. She lays there for hours every day watching to see who or what is going to go by next. In our neighborhood there are plenty of cars going by, people walking or riding bikes, chickens & cats roaming around and they all keep her glued to that spot, looking for whatever or whoever she’s going to see going by next
