Rocky the Raccoon Strikes Again

Beth Ann Chiles/ Animals, Writing/ 10 Comments/ 441

Last summer I mistakenly left some fresh corn in a cooler on the side porch overnight. I thought it was a good idea since I did not have room in the refrigerator for the dozen ears. It was a big mistake because I came out Continue reading →

Love Comes in Many Forms

Beth Ann Chiles/ Animals/ 9 Comments/ 791

Love and comfort can come in a million or more ways. It can be a simple hug.  Holding a hand of someone.  Even just a look can convey a sense of love and comfort to someone at times. But the love of a pet is Continue reading →
