Windstorm came thru here the other night and did a number on our backyard tree...

Had a good weekend here...Had a wonderful Thanksgiving and got some more work done on the house to boot! How can you complain about that?...

Work in the sitting room/gallery area is coming along nicely...This is a project that may come to completion by the end of the weekend...or at least as far as we can go for now...





























Those of us who live at the Lil Red House want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving...stay safe and enjoy...

This is pretty important!

MOSCOW. Nov 21 (Interfax) - The World Health Organization (WHO) has warned of the danger of the appearance of a new strain of flu virus from which humans will not be immune, Russian Chief Public Health Official Gennady Onishchenko said in a letter to regional health departments.

This shows the WHO's concern over the possibility of a flu pandemic, he said.

There have been 124 instances of humans contracting bird flu in Southeast Asia, with 63 deaths caused by the disease, Onishchenko said.
