The Inaugural 2008 (Private) Deck Sit

Tonight was the night!!

Got to sit on the deck with the husband and admire the view and weather whilst the sun went down. Looked over some stain/sealer/caulking brochures, and a good time was had by all, including Glenkerry.

A glass of wine, the furry dog, and thou! Aaaah!

And It Means Quite a Bit More than I Thought

Dictionary.com’s Word of the Day today:

Pestiferous!!

The Passing of a Noble Soul

MacCormac crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge this afternoon… His beans’ hearts are lying on the floor, shredded.

RIP

Chilly?

It’s been getting cold enough lately that the puddles on the tarp on the deck have been freezing over. This morning, when Glenkerry went to the water bowl for her inaugural morning drink, she stopped and looked at it… There was a thin coating of ice on the top.

Bob further reports that the Boulder Creek Web site weather page reports a roasty toasty 26° for the low last night.

You think winter’s coming on?

The Inaugural 2004 Dock Sit

Springtime must be here; summer must be on the way…

Aaaaaaah!

Most pleasant it was, sitting on the dock with the Bear, a glass of wine, the Beards, and the koi in the pond! Even though it wasn’t a regular food day, Bob thought I should go ahead and throw some sticks; they were STARVED, of course!!

It got to 80° today…

Jabberwalkies

Glenkerry and MacCormac started their “There’s someone or something coming!!” bark, so I went down to check it out. It was the three “ladies” and the setter thing, who was loose and running every which way, including preliminary forays up Tim and Penni’s driveway, to the point that Cody came 3/4s of the way down to see what was going on.

As the “ladies” passed, I requested they leash the dog, which they did nothing about at the time.

On their way back down, the dog was leashed, but had obviously found water to play in…

I thanked them, and requested that they always keep the dog leashed on the road. Their “spokeslady” smiled and said “Sure”.
