A Nice Saturday

I took Mom for a walk this morning. The weather was cool and skies blue. One street had too many cars and was very noisy--smelled bad too. But Boulder was nice--people working in their yards, pulling weeds and cleaning up spent flowers. I found numerous good smells on the ground and lifted my head to sniff around at other smells. One place I couldn't see anything--there were big rock walls holding back the grass and I could see or sniff. My mom tells me "Your nose is always working overtime" and I think she is right. I mean, what else is there but good smells, biscuits and a longgggggggg nap.

Morning glory tree

Yes, I have a morning glory tree next to the canopy where I rest. This morning it was absolutely beautiful. The rain we had last night really encouraged the blooms this morning. Ah........... pure beauty.

A morning glory tree.......

Right next to the fence where my cool hole I dug, is a scrubby elm tree--an overgrown weed. But now it is a lovely morning glory tree. Purple morning glories wind there way upward from the ground reaching each branch and making this weed a morning glory tree. This morning after a gentle rain and grey clouds hung above my head, I could see those glorious purple flowers say, "Hey, look up, Sophie. See how pretty I look now." I am out there right now and the flowers have gone to sleep, but I know they will wake up in the morning, because they are morning glories.

I Love Those Biscuits

Wow--Mike just threw me a biscuit. It was SOOOOOOOOOO good. I keep hearing things and I bark at them. Usually there isn't much going on around here. Oh......neighbors put up a new fence--now I can't see. So, I just bark when I hear something. I can see through the front fence and some of the back but I really like to lay under the tarp my Mom hung up for shade. When it gets warm, I just did my hole a little deeper and it becomes cool again. Mom really needs to come and mow the weeds in my dog run. I imagine when it gets a little cooler she will do that. Sure hope so. I don't like all these weeds. They do keep the ground cool though. Well, time for a nap now that I had a yummy biscuit. Sweet dreams.

Laid Back Day

I haven't written much lately because it was so hot. And for me with my long white coat, it's been unbearable. Also, my friends Pat and Mike ran out of dog biscuits. Just left me with no energy and a very lackluster life. I've been going to Lucky Dog for the past several days and it is cooler there. Today I am at home, lying in the shade, breathing in the aromas of the flowers from Pat's "double cosmos" (she needs to give my Mom some seeds--all my Mom has is the single petals.) Anyway, today is a laid back day. Just lying...................snoozing...................and knowing that Pat will give me a biscuit. Thanks, Pat. Have a good day.

Later, y'all
