A Whole New World

My wife, dog and I are on vacation in the far northern portion of our state. We are staying in a little one-room cottage on a little lake.

I had the first "I guess we are not in Kansas, anymore" moment just after we first arrived. Looking up into a tree, I saw three squirrels at play. Seeing squirrels is not extraordinary - we have thousands of them where we live. However, the squirrels at our cottage are jet black in color - not the usual grey.

It is always interesting to be drive just a couple hours a way and see things that you never see where you live.
