It is another beautiful day, here. I am posting from my handy iPod, so can’t write much, but here are some photos:

Maddie is doing great. I am looking forward to her litter arriving at the end of June.

Citori

 Tori is always a blast. Full of fun.

Lady Bird

 And, of course my Midge. I miss her not being in the house with me. But, she likes the barn better right now. Really, she wants to be out there–there is a lot of activity and things to watch such as currently baby birds and pigeons everywhere!

 And L Bird’s daddy, Luke, being intoxicated by the scent of stinky Pigeons torturing him from high atop the barn roof.

 He’s so pretty.

Love his points.

I could watch him on point all day long…

Is it September, yet?

Are you ready?

Boone

 And L. Bird’s brother, Boone.

What a litter that was (Shay x Luke produced Maddie, L-Bird, Boone, Count, and Blue. Blue is owned by Chuck Web, Latrobe, PA. And Count is technically my son, Graham’s dog. But I am lucky that Count lives here with me!)

Love Boone.

Really love Boone.

Is it September yet?

Blooming

 And, I got a shot of this shrub in the yard starting to bloom.

It seems I haven’t retained the knowledge of plants, shrubs, and trees.

So, I have no idea what that particular shrub is.

Everything is blooming.
Everything is blooming.

I don’t know what that one is either!

It has almost completely been erased from my brain.

I used to know that quite well.

I used to do some landscape design.

And did the Master Gardener thing.

But that seems like a very long time ago, now.

And I’ve lost what I used to have.

If you don’t use it, you lose it, right?

I better go use the air mattress right now

to rest my very weary brain and aging body

so I can use it and abuse it again tomorrow!

Right, eh?

Hug your Llewellin.

Because you can.

And because everyone needs a hug.

It makes most thing better.
