Churry has a hobby, or possibly obsession, with chewing on sticks. She will go out and lay in our yard for hours chewing on a stick. And if it's pouring rain...that's the best time for stick chewing! Lucky for me, it has not started raining yet here. It was a beautiful evening so Churry was able to enjoy it outside. Now, the past week, she has started to run out of sticks from the woodpile. She likes to get a new one each trip outside. I open the door to let her out, she immediately makes a stop at the wood pile to collect a new stick, and then goes about her business. That might be running with the stick, trying to get a drink out of the bucket with the stick, or lying in one of her favorite spots. These are either underneath the slide or by the neighbor's shed. When I was watching her tonight I noticed that since she was low on small sticks she had grabbed quite a large stick. It was more like a small log. Also in the wood pile is scraps of lumber from one of Pat's projects. She took her small log out to her spot and then returned to get a board! I wish I could have grabbed my camera in time because it was quite a sight watching her haul her "finds" to her spot. She got in a lot of stick chewing tonight and even a trip with Pat, Jacob, Kinsey and myself to Dairy Queen.

| Yes, she carried all of the logs and boards across our whole yard to her pile! |
 |
| I think she has a future as a wood carver! |

| I like how she has her collection all nicely lined up the same distance from the shed! |
