The Sneak is gettin' on up there. I can't remember if he's turning 15 or 16 this summer. He enjoys keeping watch over his territory, which includes guardianship of the goldfish and chickens. Despite their sizable difference, he also keeps Wolfgang and Murray, the dogs, in check with a nose swipe every once in a while.

Elvis has traveled throughout the yard at various stages of garden development. He's looking a little weary and worn these days, but I still love him. Here he keeps his one good eye on the Maxibel haricot vert, and other nearby annual veggies.
