It’s baseball season— come on out!
Retired in Ann Arbor

“If your idea of retirement is sitting in a rocking chair and watching the time go by, don't come to Ann Arbor. News
This lively college town has so many concerts, art fairs, lectures, sporting events, courses, museums, and other attractions—many of them free—that it practically knocks on your door and begs you to come out. Seniors even get free bus service and discounted taxi rides.” U.S.

The sun doesn’t shine very often here in the winter, so when it does, it’s worth notice!
This is a clump of parsley from my herb garden this summer. When we got our first frost warning, I plopped it in a pot, and set it on my kitchen table. I didn’t expect it to be so happy!

Celtic festival! (Not on Sunday)
Tons of people here on Saturday afternoon, enjoying the dancing, bands, craft booths, livestock, beer tent and food trucks, and racing corgis!!
(Too bad it’s not 50 degrees and raining— so all true Scots wouldn’t be as hot.) 😁

I had a blast this morning at the summer cookie decorating workshop! It is the first time I piped anything.

Double your donation today, thanks to Subaru of AA! If you love a bark or a meow, here’s your chance to help another critter find their forever home.
Tomorrow is the FINAL day of our matching challenge! Subaru of Ann Arbor is doubling gifts up to $25,000 in honor of Walk & Wag, our most important annual fundraiser. https://www.facebook.com/donate/845702310711532/
Every dollar makes 2X the difference to help the 493 animals in our care. Like shelters all across the country, we are facing an urgent capacity situation -- but your support helps us remain no-kill. Euthanasia in shelters last year was 19% higher than in 2022, due to higher numbers of animals being surrendered, fewer lost animals being claimed by their families, and victims of animal cruelty remaining stuck in shelters while the slow wheels of justice turn.
Adult dogs are taking especially long to re-home, and thanks to you, our dogs do not have a time limit.
Clarabelle is one of those animals who counts on your support until she finds her perfect match ❤️
How can you help? Here are two BIG ways you could lend a paw:

This was last night, north of Ann Arbor. If it’s clear again tonight, find the darkest field you can, lean back, and enjoy!
