Bedtime

Petey and Lucy decided to share a bed.

Perfect Poser

Petey is such a good dog….and he poses perfectly for me.

Favorite Toy

Petey almost always takes a nap with his favorite toy.

She Did it Again….

Our dog, Lucy, takes her job of defending her yard very seriously.

She caught this possum Saturday night.  Of the three that she has caught all have lived and that is only because they play dead.  This one was pretty small.  We brought Lucy in the house to give this little one time to make its getaway.

Big Love

We have encountered this large furry beast on our walks before and he was always very skittish.  This last weekend that all changed.  He finally let us get close and we were able to pet him.  He was so happy to see us that we were showered with slobbery kisses and an invitation to rub his belly.  This makes our walks even sweeter in anticipation of seeing our newest friend.

Bitten

Lucy got too close to this snapping turtle when it lunged at her and bit/grazed her nose.  It wasn’t bad….just broke the skin and bled a little bit.  Hopefully she will think twice before going in to sniff a turtle in the future.

Tummy Aches

Poor old Petey has been having tummy aches a lot lately.  Ended up taking him to the vet where I spent a bunch of money to find out everything was good and to just give him pepto.  I was relieved to hear the vet say his blood work was normal.  Matter of fact his blood work was so good the vet was shocked that it belonged to a 14/15 year old dog.

Lilly, (the cat), doesn’t look too enthusiastic.

Lilly:  I’m on the sofa with you Lucy.  Whatcha gonna do about it?

Lucy:  I shouldn’t have to put up with this kind of torment!

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
