The Magic Songs Of Time
This is Fruitycake. Do you have a favorite song that you know all of the words to?
My favorite song is one that I made up. The words are easy to memorize. Pizza, pizza, I love pizza.
Focaccia, focaccia, give me more. Spaghetti is not for Eddie, it’s for me, Fruity. Catchy song, isn’t it?
But not all songs need words. Here at our little house in this Italy place, the magic songs of time drift thru the air. You will only hear them if you dare. Because they are so magical not all can stand to hear them. It’s too much to take in how beautiful they are. Not everyone can handle the magical and beautiful things.
The Magic Songs here have always played. They played when there was no human to hear. The birds sang, the bees buzzed, the waterfall flowed.
The breeze caught the tree limbs and they danced. It was a symphony from the beginning of time and now. It will go on whether we hear it or not. But the ones who play the Magic Songs hope you do. Do you?
You may not hear the same exact songs as we do. Because you’re on a different part of this beautiful planet.
But can you imagine where you live and what it sounded like before cars and people and planes? Can you imagine where you live and how loud the birds were? You know what? The music here is so loud that sometimes it does feel like we stepped back in time.
And it’s so very wonderful that we are here. And we are glad we can share it with you.
You know why we are glad? Because we want you to know that the noise of bad things in the world is not a good song.
The goodness comes from the earth and what we choose to focus on. Learn the words ro the Magic Songs of time. Because time will go on with or without us. So while we are here, let’s listen.

Our goal, as it always has been wherever we roam is to show the life you can give to a rescue animal and live YOUR best life at the same time. We aim to Make Rescues The Breed Of Choice worldwide and it’s been our work since 2011 to showcase animal rescues, shelters and organizations around the globe making a difference. https://tinyurl.com/2tdworldrescuework
Current and future plans include:
- Continuing to share daily animals in need on our social media channels. Using our huge audience to share these urgent animals and stories helps to save lives. We worked for decades to grow our audience and to have the reach it does. We prefer to leave space open for shelters and animals in lieu of sponsors. We can reach over 40 million people a day. That’s many opportunities to find homes for these animals.
- In order to physically help animals in need, we must first sustainably renovate our home and land. We have a unique challenge due to difficult terrain, so progress has not been as quick as we would like. However, with our growing audience, we are continuing to secure monthly support in order to keep renovations going. Priority needs include a new roof, landscape clearing of property, path maintenance and expansion.
- Many outbuildings provide a unique opportunity for studio filming. This will be a major part of our volunteer work, filming educational wildlife and rescue videos and interviews with rescues around the world. The 2 Traveling Dogs channels will provide exposure to rescue and sanctuary needs, education and entertainment.
- Planned events for rescue groups in this area of Italy at our property for adoption opportunities and also to hold monthly hikes for fosters and shelter dogs. Having fenced in areas for enrichment and housing fosters as needed.
- Providing space for wildlife conservation needed in the area while educating worldwide on specific needs on making environmental differences.
- Having space available for vets that need an area for wildlife protection and rehabilitation.
- Planting crops for animal rescues to use for food sources while educating on animal nutrition.
- Providing a place for rescue organizations and individuals to pick up needed supplies and donations.
- Planned travels to other areas of the world to visit in person rescues and shelters including fundraising efforts.
It is our goal to not only help animals in need but to help and encourage people as well. People are who help the animals and education is needed worldwide as a first line of defense for all creatures.
