Spring has been a bizarre series of weather events this year in Michigan. Monday will be 71 degrees and sunny and by Wednesday we will have heavy, wet snow and howling wind with 20 degree temperatures that will require winter coats and mittens.

The weather at Buck Branch has been a tad more agreeable thankfully because they now have nine astounding Border Collies under their roof. Even though these furry balls of motion tolerate the snow, my guess is that they prefer the warmth of sun to the cold snow.
