It's a boy! 06/05/2010
 
As many of you know, my beloved English Cocker Spaniels, Max, Martha, and Maddie, co-authored my book People, Passions, Pastimes, and Pleasures: Staffordshire Figures 1810-1835.  We lost our canine kids in 2007, 2008, and 2009...and our home has not been the same.   Now please welcome the newest member of the Schkolne family.

JohnnyB  came home yesterday,  Friday, June 4, after I officially adopted him on a day trip to Milwaukee. He and I will be mastering the skills required of a couch-potato house dog...and of course learning all JohnnyB needs to know to help with the next book.
