Okay, I decided to announce the results of the contest today instead of Friday.  So, using a random number generator the winner is commenter number...

Congratulations to Kira!

And thanks to everyone else for support through comments.

Giveaway!

Well, Katie over at The Polka Dot Pig has done it again and created a cute new button over there on the sidebar.  The button links to my new Etsy shop that sells my photographs.  

In honor of this new button I am hosting a giveaway.  Here's how it works: a random person who clicks on the button (the one that says "My photography shop"), goes to the Etsy page, and leaves a comment back here on this post with the name of my Etsy shop will get an 8x10 picture of their choice.  They can choose from the photos in the shop, or one from the blog archives.  I will use a random number generator to choose which commenter will win.  Will it be #1?  #20?  We will just have to see.  So, click, check out the name, then comment.  It's that easy! You have until Wednesday June 9th to comment.  Good luck! 

(Oh, and if you have been having a hard time with my comment settings, I just changed them and it should be much easier for everyone to comment.)

****I HAVE CHANGED THE LAST DAY YOU CAN COMMENT.  YOU NOW HAVE UNTIL MIDNIGHT ON WEDNESDAY JUNE 9th! THEN THE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON FRIDAY!***

Enemies, Foreign And Domestic

Arrow hates squirrels.  Listen squirrel lovers, I love the little rats, please don't send hate mail.  I'm just saying that Arrow loathes them.  So what does my father decide to do? He puts birdseed right next to the sliding glass door so the squirrels will come right up to where Arrow's bed is.  Evil, I know.  You can send him the hate mail.  Anywho, Arrow and the squirrels are enemies.  The squirrels know that to get outside Arrow has to run through the house, out the dog door in the laundry room, around the side walkway, up the front stairs, across the front deck and onto the side deck where they are.  And Arrow is not stealthy.  Not even a little bit.  He runs scrambling and growling and the squirrels scatter.  Poor little guy wouldn't know what to do if he ever did catch one anyway.  

So, here are some pictures from a recent encounter.  Notice how Arrow avoids eye contact and take a look a the smug look on that squirrel's face.  

(Bonus: The first commenter to correctly tell me where the phrase "Enemies, Foreign and Domestic" comes from will be mailed their very own Arrow calendar!)

Contest Time!

Okay friends, readers and lurkers! 

Time to do a little de-lurking and reader recruiting!

Recruit anyone - spouses, neighbors, co-workers, friends and family!

 

Your assignment is to bring as many new readers to the blog as possible.  

Just leave a comment with your name on this post.

Then have your new recruits leave comments on this post saying who sent them.  

It's that easy!

The person who brings the most new readers will receive a gift personally picked for them. 

That's the initial incentive.  

The next incentive is that there will be more contests to come, including a "Name that Photo" contest.  Each with their own gift!

But these contests only work with lots of readers!  

Good Luck!
