A great leap forward…

…for grandson Church as he departs Thistle Hill for veterinary school.

For the past two years Church as stepped up in my absence to handle our Red Devon herd.  All the while he also completed an advanced degree in biology.

Now it’s on to Cornell University and one of the leading veterinary programs in the country.  The competition for admission is fierce…exceeding only by the pressure from his high-powered class mates.

Church has an amazing knack for handling animals.  They just seem to want to do what he asks.  We have no doubt that he will become a leading light in the veterinary world.

Just to keep an eye on him, I’m sending along my dog Pokey.  She’s at the stage now where she just prefers to sleep so there may be a course she can take to hone that skill.
