Help for New Salem

My human and family has been to Lincoln's New Salem State Historic Site, about 2 miles South of Petersburg and about 20 miles Northwest of Springfield, is a reconstruction of the village where Abraham Lincoln spent his early adulthood. The Blagojevich Administration's has begun to close down the Illinois state parks including shortening the days New Salem is open. Eventually is will be closed if the public does not step up and say enough.

Of all the things humans' do that I don't understand...why take parks away. Humans are able to learn about history, enjoy the outdoors, be happy, spend time with family friends including their animal friends...why take that away. There are so few places left where nature is allowed to just be. Don't let this be another freedom taken from us. Humans and animals have so few in these days.

If you feel moved to do so, go the website below and let yourself be counted. I would, but for some reason dogs' can't vote...probably something to do with thumbs. But for you humans...you can.

two little boys

With these two being three weeks old and eyes open, they can't be any cutier.

One little girl

At three weeks old she is very sweet. I would love to play with her and her brothers but are only starting to toddle around. With eyes wide open she looks like she is ready to take on the world.

Puppies

These little guys are 2-3 week old Papillon pups. My human friend Suzanne, has been going and playing with these little ones. The more photos that come in my human will put their pictures up as they grow. Though I don't think they will be big like me. Here they are the same size I was when I was first born. I bet they even have puppy breath. Humans love puppy breath.
Well...it looks like they are in good hands...literally.
