We are dog-sitting our grand-dog, Forest. All 85 lbs. of him.
He's a fun, goofy and over-the-top friendly dog that seems to like it at the mouse-house. There is only one very big issue with Forest....he chases unfamiliar cats. So, he is staying downstairs while Annie & Audrey, with nose in the air, reside in the apartment above. Oh, he's very comfy with his couch, blankies, toys, food, water and listening to his favorite radio station. And, the retired-guy spends most of his waking hours down there. They have become quite the buddies.
"No play-time in the garage for a few days, ladies."
"WHAT is that smell?"
I look so forward to planting and cleaning up this spring but I know it will be with a heavy heart. I will miss our dear old Kane wandering around the property, sniffing every corner of the front acre, wondering what mom's up to. He loved his freedom to stroll around here at his leisure. He owned this place; he protected it. It will be lonely for awhile as I work around and I expect I'll have those 'moments'. So, Spring is bittersweet to me.
Simon has found a friend. The chase was on over the weekend and early this morning. The little visitor would run around the old pump and then stop in it's tracks under the old maple. Then Simon would chase. It was fun to watch them. As you know, we are really not sure if Simon is a he or a she so this new relationship may solve that mystery. ;-)
Fingers crossed for baby chippies. We'll just call her 'Simone'. :)
The Canada Geese are returning.
