My Nephews Came for a Visit — Wednesday, July 26, 2023

Apollo in the back, Loki in the front.

It’s taken me a long time to accept other dogs.  I can finally do so with these two.

I’ve always liked company—dogs of all types.

And the Heat Rolls On—Friday, July 21, 2023

It is HOT! Mom!  HOT!

I NEED IN!  MOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!

Hot isn’t too bad…I can do hot!  I just hang in the shade.

What I can’t do is the wind!!!

Hot and WIND!  I need in, also!

(We need rain…to settle the dust and to cool us down. It can rain anytime now, but come next week—no, rain—we will be cutting the alfalfa for the second time this year)

So much fun!

Shave and a Hair Cut, Two Bits–Tuesday, July 18, 2023

Mom said, “Boo Berry, I think it’s time for a bath and a haircut.”

So she picked me up—took me on a car ride. Dropped me off and LEFT ME!!!

Then came and got me (I WAS SO EXCITED TO SEE MOM)!

“Nice!” Mom proclaimed.

“Very Nice”, announced Dad

Cooler, I thought!

Boo Berry Betty!
