Honey, We Shoulda' Bought the Ark follows a man's major adjustment from an urban to rural lifestyle and his development of a much deeper love for animals, both domestic and wild. This change of life is supported by the loving encouragement of his wife, a true animal lover who can "talk with the animals" without even uttering a word. The book is a compilation of stories about many of these animals, including horses, dogs, cats, a variety of birds and even a few of the wild creatures which frequently visit. Many of the animals have a background of neglect and abuse and have been given a home provided they honor one important rule: they learn to live in harmony with the other animal and human occupants. The stories include touches of humor, love, sadness and even common sense lessons in life that animals teach us daily. The stories are told just as they happened and they acknowledge mankind's God-given responsibility for dominion over all living things in a compassionate and humane manner. The rural setting, the author's homestead in rural Florida, truly is a landlocked Ark for animals amidst farmland, woodland and the swamps that are common in the area. It is ongoing, with changes of occupants occurring as nature dictates. Welcome to the Ark!
