Day 890: More Walks And The Bird!

After the burst of activity in the Kitchen... came a lull. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I like the aromas that are waftin... and so I was a bit reluctant to head out for a little outdoor time.
And here I am... "tangled up in Bleu"!
 And Cousin Atlas... or Atty, as my the Mom calls him. He's checkin it all out...
 Just like me and the Bleu check our return trip tickets and boardin passes. Check. Check. Check. Check.
We are havin the time of our lives and hope it will last Forever, but we also adore the concept of the trolley... and we're kinda fond of it's driver. Just sayin.
 Samwiched between the Bleu and his Girlfriend, the Porter!
 No denyin... She's a gorgeous girl!!!
 And now... I present Master Chef Tom (of Mister T Day Spa fame)... and The Bird!
Note: It is not me who is inches from the bird. It is DaKota-Bear... but he's not the only one wif a keen interest... Left to right Goldens: Buddy, Dakota, Dylan. And Atlas rounds out the lower portion of the pitcher.
And at a somewhat respectful distance away... is the me! 
 My proximity is governed by my the Mom and not my interest or enfusiasm! Just sayin. 
And she is distractin me wif all the pitcher takin... 
 Meanwhile, the Bleu is scared of the Kitchen... but he is excited wif the aromas and the sounds he hears!
 An...ti...ci....
 pa...tion...

Fanksgivin Meal!!!

And the aftermaff...
 Cleanin the Kitchen might not be so interestin, but the puttin up of the leftovers... Yahoo!!!
 Swing to the left...
 And as all ways... I maintain my postition in the Kitchen!!!
Happy Chock Full-o-the Fankfulness Friday! You're at the top of my list!!!

Day 702: Happy May 22nd!

[Please to indulge me in this back-post to 22 May, when I was on luxurious holiday at Campo Blanco!]


We are very excited about what lies before us and really what lies just outside our bedroom door... the Herd! So we wake up early and are excited to get the day started!
The Mom is so excited that she take this fabulous 15 second video to commemorate occasion... the silly silly Mom.
The awake Campers gather together on the screened in porch, doin our best to be quiet so the restful can still rest!
You can all ways pick out the Porter amongst our cousin pack... on a counta we're all boys and she's a girl! And don't she look like a Princess lollin up there on the sofa???
We had a really peaceful and relaxed day, no stresses, no schedules... just tasty foods, lazy naps and good conversations. Noone was in a hurry to do much of any fing... well, except for the Atlas who make his impromptu break for the river! That boy had a date wif it...and he just couldn't wait!!! 

Atlas is Bleu Healer / German Shepherd mix heck of a sweet boy wif a intense personality, and he is ALL about findin and diggin up the rocks... errrr, boulders... in the river! He barks when he finds one. He digs. And he sticks his head under water for as long as it takes to pull up the bounty!

This is a video of a failed attempt, but it shows his methodology... stay tuned on a counta in later days, I'll share his success!
I napped in the comfort of the air conditionin while the Aunt Madison, Aunt/Cousin Becca, Atlas and my the Mom hiked up the river and back.
You see, the Camp Counselors have been reluctant to allow the Campers down to the river on a counta... the last time we were all here, there were a number of unsupervised dogs... just like these two here who are handsome boys wif collars and all, but are runnin loose along the river. Atlas was a good boy and had a good exchange, and we are relieved that the frisbee he found was not theirs. Just sayin.
We went on many walks durin the day, and I shnoofed lotsa wildlife and other fings. And this is one of the Mom's primary views... on a counta she was equipped wif two cameras and was sincerely tryin to capture the esssence of our paradise [which for her means any time she spends wif me and the Bleu].
Say what? Who is on wrong side of door just now? [the Cane!]
Me and the Bleu, wif very rare exception, went out in a pair. We make a pretty good team and do reasonably well on leash together. I mean, I'm a bit serious and he's a bit silly... but still, we get a long!
Seem like all ways some body on right / wrong side of door, monitored in this moment by the Cane [layin down], Dylan and Dakota [wif kerchief].
Me and the Bleu, outside the fray!
Beyond you will see Cane [facin camera], Dylan, Dakota, Aunt Madison wif the Buddy behind her... and the Bleu pointin toward the me [and also the forbidden kitchen].
Synchronicity. This is first day we are all together, so we are still tryin to sync our wake/sleep/eat cycles... so while me and the Bleu eat early dinners, we are now takin a bit of a time apart on the screened in porch while the other Campers dine!
We know what they are doin out there. And we want to eat dinner... again!!!
Really, we do!!!
Wif utmost respect to my sweet Cousin/Aunt Becca, I will stop the pitcher sharin now... This night, we begin to celebrate her birfday tomorrow! My the Mom is ultra sensitive bout such fings, and so wifout the Becca's express permission, I will not publish!
