Dog Walking
It was a hot and humid one today. Java’s kiddy pool is a bit substandard from the previous house’s pool. I hope this area alongside the deck will be a good spot for a future pond that is big enough for Java to fit all the way into. It won’t be roomy enough for swimming,…
Snow Dog
“In a while, I will put on some boots and step out like someone walking in water, and the dog will porpoise through the drifts, and I will shake a laden branch sending a cold shower down on us both.” ~ from “Snow Days” by Billy Collins I hope to have more time soon to…
Trying to be Good
As Java ran towards the horses, I told her to sit and stay. Look at that obedient dog… Should have snapped a photo 5 seconds later when she went running through the fence and chased them. But I’ll leave you with this angelic impression.
Life With Dogs
I didn’t post yesterday as I spent most of the day outside with dogs and fat tire bike and horseback riding, taking advantage of a windless, winter day before the arctic blast of today. Today will be a housecleaning and writing day. But, oh, yesterday…
Looking Like Fall, But Feeling Like Summer
It’s beginning to look a lot like fall. Leaves are starting to yellow slightly. Maple leaves are starting to redden. Poison Sumac sure is pretty at this time of year. Leaves cover our usually clear path. Sit break. We’ve been going through a dry period again and the river shows it. However fall like it…
Once Again, Good Thing She’s Cute
My brain is so full that it’s hard to sort through it all and write a blog post. Usually, around the first of the year, I take some time to reflect on the previous year and ponder what I might want to do differently in the future. It’s not so much a time of making…

I just love that JAVA! Have a good day!
Love the photos. Especially, ‘Java shake’!
Java has a good life.
She certainly keeps me moving and laughing! I hope Java still feels like she has a good life when she’s stuck in an apartment with me.
Java looks like one happy girl. Don’t just think apartment…there might be an alternative somewhere.
Java, I love you! You are too darn cute! I love seeing her swimming!
It was in the upper 80’s here today, usually Sadie will just jump in her pool, I couldn’t get her to go in it for the life of me! Silly dog!
Such a cute doggie! What a life!
Great photos. And if you do have to move to an apartment, you’ll take Java to the off-leash park or find an unofficial off-leash area to run in. It’ll work.
I’m hoping I’ll end up somewhere with a fenced in yard, like a townhouse or duplex, or at least a door that goes directly outside. Wherever we end up, like Ari said, it’ll work out somehow. Those apartment pools are tempting though. Kids with stinky diapers go in there. Why not a hairy dog? 🙂
