dog – Page 11 – Careful Now!

It’s required by law…

I love how the scooper is backing away as if the dog is about to produce a buttload of nuclear waste.

No judgment. I’ve been there.

Blue Christmas!

This girl, though…

Silly Miss Pearl.

It’s terrible what she endures.

“Let’s get this show on the road!

Mighty tempting. But, per the rules outlined last month, off limits.

Holiday welcoming committee.

Classic blow-mold alert!

Apparently I have chosen the form of the Destroyer…and it’s this guy.

This guy had a faux fur beard and some kind of velvet-ish covering for the suit. Wonder how that fared with all of the moisture and rain?

This fella looks excited for the big day!

Poor, uncared-for Alfie.

Off we go!

Breaking into its winter nut stash a tad early.

I liked this tree. It seemed frondly.

For Memorial Day.

Another golden sunset.

Props to these folks for bothering to put up a giant inflatable turkey, instead of skipping straight from Halloween to Christmas. (#22)

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)
