dog – Page 11 – Careful Now!

Classic…

One of Orange County’s older dining establishments. No joke.

This is the look of separation anxiety. Even though a) I’m in the car with her, and b) K was only gone for about 5 minutes.

Here is Alfie in her hot dog outfit during the annual 15 seconds that she has it on before wiggling out of it. (#5)

My nephew and niece Mr. Moo and Ms. Pearlie-Whirly.

Alfie doing what Alfie does…checking out the playground equipment.

There’s a nice lake, stocked with fish, and across it, a really nice museum of Orange County paleontology.

It was a beautiful early fall day. We were avoiding the air show, because it terrified Alfie. Can’t say that I blame her. The noise was outrageous.

Enjoying not being anywhere near the air show.

Alfie and me.

A teensy bit of fallishness. (#14)

“Where’s my adoring fan club from New Zealand?”

“When’s that pitbull next door coming outside? I want to taunt it into a frenzy!”

“Oh, I know you like to sit here. But you see, I don’t care.”

“I hate the stupid Pacific Air Show more than anything. Even going to the vet.”

Alfie says, let’s get this show on the road!

Golden hour shadows.

The full range of the human experience…

…in chalk, on the sidewalk.

I had to look this up this tree…it’s called a golden medallion tree. Beautiful!

Pink plumeria.

I’m always up for some weird cloud action.

Happiness is being smooched and squashed by Mr. Moo and Miss Pearly-Whirly.

She’s not receiving divine revelation…she’s trying to catch the scent of the dog next door, so she can go on an insane barking/vine-shredding jag.

She’s got a stomach full of chicken and kibble and she’s ready to rock.

Alfie’s such a goof.

On our way…

There’s several enormous plumerias on our route. I can never get them past the “dead looking stick” stage.

Somebody loves somebody.

Everything’s peachy so far.

Leaf print.

Weird, beautiful unsettled sky. This is usually a spring or fall thing.

A rare right-angle palm.

Looks complicated.

I’ve always liked this tile that someone stuck on their fence.

A particularly beautiful hibiscus.

Life…uh…finds a way.

Alfie always tries to rile up the neighborhood dogs.
