Ceceda Pictures

Here are a few pictures from Ceceda!

Estrella is a young German Shepard. We got some funny pictures of her jumping for her favorite toy one afternoon. She had the energy... but accuracy wasn't her strong point.



Anjo's house in Ceceda is very nice. Surrounding the house is nothing but farms, hills, and cows.

Every Saturday Anjo, Renee, and I would go to the "Perrera".. aka the dog shelter and socialize/take care of the dogs there.

Here's our room. Looking out our window we could see the cows in the morning... it was angled so that the sun would come in the window all morning, which was very nice. All day and night we could here the jingling of cow bells.

Here's Renee offering flowers to a cow. The day before we left Ceceda we took a walk around the town (aka country-side)

Every morning the neighbor walks their cows.. at first we thought he was exercising them... but Anjo explained that every day they grazed at a different meadow. I never realized just how big cows were, until I had to convince one that my tools were not delicious (I had made the mistake of leaving my tools on the stone wall by the road while we were working on the fence)

  3. so many animals!!! the last picture here reminds me of Vermont; right after thanksgiving, a friend and i were driving up to jay peak ski resort and we took the back roads from his house because we thought it would be faster. he lives in rural Vermont, and we got stuck waiting like a half hour for a ton of cows to cross the road. not only are they huge, but they're ridiculously slow!!!

    @Yvonne - Can't you adopt that leapin' puppy? I think he would make a great addition to the Johnson family :)
