Confirmation, Please

I think I have it... My camera is shooting AVCHDLite and actually transferring only *half* of the recorded time... this video should have been 1:42 not 0:51. So the little devil looks like he's scurrying around. Wrong. Porcupines don't scurry. There's no need to worry when you're covered in quills!
It actually dropped the sound of Panama snorting and when I told him to keep his nose away as well! Since I have IMovie '08, there seems to be no way to play with the speed either... If you know of one, let me know!
I've changed my camera settings and perhaps my next video will transfer correctly.
But, still...
it's a cute little guy (girl?)
Whatever.
I'm not picking up the tail to confirm one way or another!
You do it!

Hi! I have a question about English Shepherds. We just put in an application with the National English Shepherd Rescue organization. Hoping to give a young female a loving home! My question is: How do you think an English Shepherd will do in a "non-working" environment? We live in the suburbs and do not have a huge yard. We do plan to provide her with regular exercise. And take it from there with maybe more, like agility, etc. Do you think a dog of this breed can thrive without cows or sheep to herd? Thanks!!

No questions this time, just a great big THANK YOU! for keeping this wondeful blog. I'm a city girl, but I love visiting here and getting a sense of what real ranch life looks like. You are an excellent writer. Red Dirt is my fav!!

Do you take your bulls off for a season? Where do you run them?
Do you have any windmills for water?
When you first started ranching, what was the hardest thing to over come?

the porcupine didn't seem the least bit concerned about you, the horse, or the dog being so close to it. It really didn't care? Just went around searching for what? food? and they are solitary animals?

Anymore welding going on? I loved your gate. And, do you make the braided reins (I think that's what they were - I am clueless about horse stuff) for others? Not a horse in sight, but I'm thinking they could be great tie-backs for the curtains that I'm weaving.

I love how your horse follows the porcupine very closely. Aren't animals so smart.
