Eye of the Cat!

Another Chance to Win!!

Guess this sound round 2.

Whoever guesses the most correct answers during the road trip will win a grand prize


And the answer is.......


Refer to "Identify this sound" on June 29th. Papa Had the correct answer, it was a Green Treefrog.


This frog reaches 2.5 inches in length. The color is generally a bright green as seen here. Occasionally specimens may be lighter or even fade to a yellowish green. There is normally a distinct white or yellowish line running laterally along the side of the frog from the snout to the vent , but this stripe may occasionally be reduced or absent. They also can also have yellow flecks on the back. Green Treefrogs may be heard calling anytime from March to October in the South, and during the spring in the northern part of its range - Species Hyla cinerea

We're Home!!!

This New England cottage was built by my great-grandfather in 1905 and was one of the first homes in town to have electricity. The house featured inside shutters on the windows, four fire places, stained glass on doors and gabled windows, 11 ft wood ceilings and sliding panel doors.
