Java Working on Her Social Skills

Java and I managed to get to a skijoring training session today for the first time this year. Lovely setting, huh? Training takes place at an electrical substation. Last year, we went to a couple training sessions and hit the skijoring trails several times. But Java wasn’t well trained enough and I had never cross…
Last week I took a couple days off so I could have a four day weekend to work on a few writing/get organized projects. For all the time I spent at my computer, I still felt like I got very little done.
I feel as though I should introduce my animal crew. The newest member of the family is Java, a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever mix.
It reached the low 70s today.Cloudy and muggy but an event just the same. The warm, humid weather has brought out the gnats already. As I rush around after work each day, it seems like there is too much to do and not nearly enough time. I’m sure no one out there can relate to…
Throughout most of the Spring and Summer we didn’t get any rain and now it’s like it won’t stop. Our pool is almost overflowing. But no weather fazes Java. It looks like she’s doing some sort of celebratory rumba. I wish I could be more like Java. I’ve been told by more than one person…
Started out right away this morning on my manure project. The side of the barn went from this: To this. I got the worst of it done in four bucket loads. I know I said I’d only do three but that didn’t even take me half way down the side of the barn. Ended…

Oh Mary, these are the sweetest pictures ever. Such good natured animal buddies to have.
What a wonderful series of photos. They’re priceless! I really mean that. You should frame them!
My K has convinced my friends horse to play tug with her. It was crazy to watch, back when K was a pup, how she’d take the tug toy and try to tease the horse with it. Eventually, the horse took the other end and a small game of tug ensued! Now, the two play with a stick together. So wonderful…
This is so cute! I was laughing and crying! Java reminds me so much of my Bailey!! He always has to be right there in the horses legs, face, whatever, the closer the better!
Mary…This post and the last post are great. Snow, yuck! But Java and the horses are so sweet. And the photos taken near the St. Louis River are spectacular. You picked out a great place to get away from it all.
Thanks for your visits.
Mary– Java is the key-ootest! Love the pics from the last post too. Sorry I missed the one before until now. Hope today is a little better.
Very funny. Love the photos and narrative.
That last photo says it all..I believe they are friends! 🙂
It’s been fun watching this crazy relationship develop between Java and mainly Luke because Luke just pays more attention to other living things while Murphy tends to be off in his own world. When the place does sell, I’ll miss being able to catch these daily moment, which I guess is why I try so hard to capture them now.
freakin adorable.
thanks for sharing.
