Rosie

Speaking of happiness.

Andy & I met Rosie a year ago at this wonderful bed & breakfast we stayed at for our wedding (Buttermilk Falls Inn). At that time, sexist as I guess we were, we assumed she was a he and because she/he was so obnoxious we nicknamed her "Ferdinand" after the goose in the movie "Babe". Our stay was brief, but we found lots of laughs and enjoyment in feeding Ferdinand and the rest of the ducks.

This year, for our first anniversary, we couldn't think of anyplace we would've rather gone. Thankfully all the feathered friends were still around. However, we learned A LOT this year. The swans weren't as mean as we thought, the ducks had little cliques, and Ferdinand was actually Rosie! By the time we left, she was eating out of our hand and making these little crying, begging, honking noises when we wouldn't give her any food.

Remember: Be kind to your web-footed friends, for that duck may be somebody's mother...
