Dog Creek Falls is just another place on the side of the road that thousands of people drive by every day without stopping. No cover charge, no entry fee, but you do have to get out of your car and walk a hundred yards or so. Slow down, pull over and have a look.
Looks like it’s animal attack season around here. A few days after being attacked by the neighbor’s crazy Rotweiller, it looks like a cougar has killed a couple sheep.

Today was the warmest, sunny day of 2011 so far, but I didn’t get much of a chance to enjoy it. As I was heading out the front door of my house, the neighbor’s Rotweiller attacked me, without warning, from behind and bit me on the back of my leg. I’m not sure why people … Read more
