We've moved !!!  To Westfiled , WI.  See the  new place , scroll down past life in Oxford. We plan to build Koi ponds here at the new place, this spring of 2008
Winter of 2008,  lots of snow & very cold !!  Since moving here in late September, the work at settling in continues.  I have aquired a new nick name,  "Queen of the HIll" and you should just see the queen with the snow shovel !   Much ahead in making this grand old house what it should be. Built in 1900, it is on the Historical Societies tour and featured in thier tour book with the history of the houses builder and the history of Westfiled. This is our new home and we are very happy here.  We did love our home in Oxford, and miss our many wonderful neighbors.
The Lake behind the house is just beyond that line of trees, frozen over , snow covered
These pictures were taken just after we moved here.  Geese are on the lake , 
Devilan completed the Koi ponds , waterfall and deck spring 2007. The falls are lit with colored  lights in the evening.   We enjoy BBqs and hours in the swing.

Hi !   My Name is "Precious"  I'm 12 weeks old.  I came to join my new family a few days ago.  It seems Mister was pining for a dog. My Mistress weakened and went to shop for a clam baby girl and found me. I am very happy. Tons of toys and lots of kitty friends to play with.

End of January 2010..    This Huge Aquarium , Which came from a Vegas Hotel , is ready for fish
....last year, when we installed the new entry door, while the wall opening was large enough, we were able to bring the 1,000 gallon aquarium  ( 4'x8'x4' ) into the house.  Winter is the time for indoor projects.  While Mary was at the Cat Show in St Paul,  Devil did the underfloor support beams , added 5, five gallon pails of sand , did the sea scape and filled the tank. In a few weeks , after the water has cued we will add fish. 
January 2012, "Precious"  , Devilan, and Fish.  The tank cabnet is made of ceadar
wood. 
Christmas 2011, the house has new porch and roof !! Work done last summer.
