Very Early Awww Monday July 8, 2019

 
A lot of our new neighbors have dogs.
They are all cute, well behaved and don't bark a lot!
This guy is Trooper- he's getting old but still
loves his walks! He lives across from us.
Have a great week!

Thankful Thursday September 20, 2018

 
I am so thankful for all
the cats (and dogs) that have 
chosen to live with us.
Our four legged family members
have given us so much unconditional love.

Still a kitty then .....always in our hearts.
Lucy is eight years old now.
Such a dear and smart cat!

Thanks Brian !

Every year the railroad town of Dunsmuir
celebrates the railroad.
A lot of young and old railroad riders
come to town and a lot have their dogs
and their musical instruments.
Here's just a few of the many visitors!

Don't judge a person by their appearance,

Awww Mondays AND Sparks! February 26, 2018

 
Our nearby neighbors have a new puppy.
Toby in front is about 8 months old and
the little guy in back just joined the family!
Ryder is about 2 months old and cute as
the dickens! We haven't met him yet, but
pretty soon we will.
 He starts obedience school next week and
judging by how well Toby picked up
good manners Ryder won't be far behind.

 This weeks quote for Sparks

They might be a bit out of shape and a
little worn around the edges, but they fit well.”

We met this cutie pie dog last
weekend - his name is Moonshine!
Adorable!  

 
Here's a photo of our blooming
Orchid Cactus. We've had this plant
for years and it only started blooming
when we moved. The original plant belonged
to Russell's Grandmother Grace Bebe.
Below is another photo where you can see
how big this plant is!

While visiting my son in Milwaukie Oregon
I got to know these two lovely dogs
quite well. It doesn't matter how many
of us are home - if their favorite human
isn't there the rest of us do not count at all!

Woof! It's Awww Monday! January 11, 2016

Since I have been known to inundate my blog with countless Lucy photos I thought that it is only right that I occasionally post some of our canine friends....and another critter !
Woof!
 
 
Here's one of our neighbors - his name is Chip!
 
 
 
This is Pepper .
We had Christmas dinner with his family...

Please, please let us in.... 
 
 
We truly want in....
 
 
 
Thanks!

Had to share two photos this week!


 Service dog Thumper with baby chicks!
Shared by good friend Laurel


Our good friend Tony Tree had this to say about these two
cute camels. " they really enjoyed being petted and getting their necks' scratched, they were crowding around even after I ran out of dried dates! One seemed to really enjoy mouthing my arm and ears. Seemed to be after salt. Very gentle, more fun than hanging out with horses to tell the truth."
Tony is working in the Middle East and it's always great to see
positive photos like this instead of what usually is coming out of that area.

Magpie Tales #217 Wake Up!

Sofa Dog, artist unknown
Provided by Tess Kincaid

I surfed the net
Ordered some treats
Made you coffee 
And still you sleep?

What's a doggie to do
When he wants to poo
And walk in the park
Do I chew on your shoe?

Take a look
I am being so good
I guess I'll just wait
While reading my book

~~~~
Dogs are so darned patient-
unlike cats......who by this point
would have pushed you out of bed!
