See Java Jump!
It was in the teens, sunny, and windless today. Woo! Hoo! I needed a lift-my-spirits, outdoor day so bad! The morning started with a bluish-tinged sunrise. That progressed to an orangish hue. I wanted to take a photo of the horses walking out of the barn, but the sight of Java standing on top of…
It was a cooler, less humid weekend. This is Minnesota so we know these weather breaks are short lived (there’s a predicted high of 95 F today), so that’s all the more reason to appreciate the good times by being outside as much as possible. Steve and I headed for the Minneapolis Farmer’s Market around…
I don’t have many of my own photos to accompany this post as I forgot my good camera and my hand-held camera’s batteries died after only a couple photos. So I stole a few photos from fellow mountain bike riders. Beyond that you’ll have to use your imagination and picture a group of about 30…
I follow Mary Carroll Moore’s blog on writing. Her posts have the best insights about writing and the most helpful writing exercises that I have ever encountered. But her recent post called “Acceptance and Rejection – Balance in the Creative Life” not only struck a chord with me as a writer, but with me as…
Trying to put some roots down, not in a place, but in being. Digging down deep, probing the earth, sinking my fingers in ’til I feel that sense of rightness, of solid ground. — Maery Rose I’m supposed to be straightening out my files right now. You can tell how well that’s going. It…
I’m a play it safe kind of lady. If I have one change in the works, I certainly don’t want to intentionally bring another change or challenge into the mix. Too much stress all at once. Too many things I’ll have to do all at once. Too much uncertainly, all at once…

I love the photo of Java swimming with you. What a fun doggie. And yes, obscene mushroom!
I cant believe after the pool, and the dirt in the arena, and the pool again..she can sleep on the white couch!!! AND IT IS STILL WHITE!
To cute a post, the pool looks pretty inviting!
Java is teh keyoot! She looks so adorable all curled up sleeping, and how fun to have someone to rough-house with that’s you know, not a giant pain in the ass. 😀
Thanks for the link lurve too! 😉
Wow – that looks like so much fun! I wish we had a pool for the dogs to swim in. L would definitely leap in from the side, but Z needs to ease his way in with stairs. I have no idea about B – she’s never seen a swimming pool. I hope to take the dogs to the river to swim later today!
Lynn – It’s pretty funny the way she swims alongside me, watching me the whole time pacing herself with me.
Jan – I make sure the pool is the last stop she makes, then have her dry off. Well, and I wipe down the couch too.
Sue – Yeah, Java and I are buds. I’ve been told I shouldn’t let her be on the furniture, but it’s so much more fun to watch a movie with her head resting on my lap.
Dog Geek – It is so much fun to watch Java enjoy the pool. Brings a smile to my face every time. Not sure what I’ll do when the house sells as I don’t know where I can take her to swim off leash, but I’ll keep looking until I find something. I’ll just miss having a swimming hole right out the back door. Hope you and the dogs had fun at the river!
I love it ! Very creative ! That‘s actually really cool Thanks.
