A Bit O' Refreshment on theTrail



Jack's Foxy New Friend




Can you see her? After following her up the hill, Jack turned and came back to us. He was panting and said, "nice tail!"

(My Gosh! What have I created? By the way, that picture that looks like a snarl is actually my great ability as a photographer catching the start of a bark)

Hidden Pictures Playground

Remember the Highlights Magazines in the dentist's office? Remember the Hidden Pictures Playground feature? Well here's my version -- find the black lab in the burn after sundown. (Hint: look for the pink tongue).





My First Belly Laugh in Months

Jack and Jessie and I took the hard trail again today. Since Jessie would never make it on her own, I hooked her up to Jack, as usual. He certainly didn't hide his boredom, but he was game and kept moving.



Then he saw a squirrel. He bunched up over his hind legs for the launch, but I grabbed the belly loop of his harness just in time. He sprang, but, because of the restraint, his momentum took him up instead of forward. He levitated with great vigor over and over and over. When he realized that he was bounding in one spot, he started emitting a sharp bark with each launch, as if to add some thrust. I laughed till I cried. I tried to capture it for you, but by the time I got the camera ready, he had figured out the game and it wasn't as vigorous. Still, it's pretty funny.

Raspberries???!

It turns out that Jack LOVES raspberries. K-So and Jessie declined.


The lunge...

Back for seconds, and thirds, and...

It's hard to understand why somethings burn and others don't...
