Memorial Day...a day to remember and give thanks to all the men and women who have bravely served this great country of ours and to those who continue to do so...a heartfelt... THANK YOU...
Mr. Dog Trot recently informed me that I owed it to him to update you, my lovely blog readers, about my clothesline (fiasco) situation...I am hppy to report the line is in tact and functioning... have you ever noticed ticks coming in the house on your lined dried laundry? I do...
There now is an ebb and flow to my days, flower gardens are being planted...seeds and seedlings being purchased for the vegetable garden...the old tube of BENGAY is being put to good use as well as the Spring Chicken Rub for sore (old) muscles...do you wear gardening gloves while working in dirt? not something I have ever gotten use to...
flowers are popping...
the shade garden is filling in nicely...
Maybeline and her sister's have moved out to the "big house"
all fowl are trying to remain on their best behavior...not easy...
paths have been mowed...I'm waiting for my friend to call and inform me that "my girls" have taken a field trip and wandered into her backyard...or better yet her swimming pool...I wonder if chickens swim?
and to celebrate the beginning of the summer season...off to the clam shack we went...Mr. Dog Trot consumed a lobster roll...my dad enjoyed a clam strip dinner...with some help from Mr. Dog Trot...my mom the whole clam dinner...also with some help from Mr. Dog Trot...me...the kid size portion of chicken tenders...I always get the "what is wrong with you" look...okay... I admit it.. I DO NOT LIKE SEAFOOD...in any shape or form...I did save room for ice cream...
and the love of our lives...Travis Lloyd...attended his first parade...tucked safe in the arms of his grandfather...napping...
Winslow Homer would like you to know it is hard work being a "grampy dog"
but somebody has to do it!!! What's happening in your neck of the woods? I'd love to know!!
