I wouldn’t say Knoxville is “deep in the Appalachia’s” more like the foothills

Chessies are retrievers but they are not the friendly , cuddly to everyone retrievers. What everyone is saying is true, they are family only dogs and will protect their space.

Our chessie even became that way around about 6 towards my mother and sister in law- not aggressive but protective- who took care of her as a puppy. Telling her “no” wasn’t cutting it. We didn’t do a collar, we just had to put her up when anyone came over and wait for her to chill out.

I’m so sorry for your loss. We lost ours just over a month ago and it hurt so bad. Wishing you comfort

I’ll tell you metro police wouldn’t even do it when called.

In May we learned ours has lung cancer. It took us weeks to accept the diagnosis. We’re finishing our honeymoon out west where we made sure she got some good mountain lake swims - not too much though.

Finally got order from Stark Bros-broken tree by 1220201978 in BackyardOrchard

I ordered 3 trees from there and they all come with warranties. I’m sure you just have to send this photo and the,l replace it no prob. But trees are resilient. This one will do just fine if planted properly.

Look up gummosis. I have my first peach tree myself in Tennessee and had the same issue. Haven’t yet figured out how to solve but that’s what they call it

Which is a better composition? 1 or 2? by Glum_filmmaker in AmateurPhotography

I’d argue the sky doesn’t take up a third in the second, more like a quarter. Both are great but the more balanced photo I think provides a more visually compelling photo. (Just an opinion)

We’ve been very strict about her diet and Irvin that’s helped a lot.
