Home, Home on the...

RangerI had originally intended to adopt an animal each saint's day in December (Barbara, Nicholas, and Lucia), but then time went rushing by like an express train, so all I managed was my bison, which I adopted on St. Barbara's Day (December 4).

I toyed with a name like "Smoky" or "Gatlin" since I bought him in Gatlinburg, but instead I settled for a name pun.

"Oh, give me a home
Where the buffalo roam...
Home, home on the range..."
