Stick-ebana

Most days, this is what my front door looks like.  An assorted pile of sticks that I have brought home from my daily travels.  I like it this way – if I decide to take a stick with me it is waiting for me, and if I don’t then I know exactly where I left…

Riders on the Storm

Hurricane, eh? I am suited up, and ready for you Irene.  I pee in your general direction. I see absolutely no reason why I should curtail my normal walkie pattern because of some wind and rain.  What else is a raincoat for? I still want to go to the park, I still want to walk…

PINE CONES!!!  I thought this package smelled…

Tree… Down!

Gee, I knew that it was a pretty wild storm that raced through Philly last night – the rain started late and was so loud I was barking at the window – but I didn’t know it was THIS wild! That’s a big tree, well it was a big tree.  It looks like a lightning…

Water-y Goodness

Damn, it’s hot here.  This humidity thing is kicking my butt.  This summer is my first real, full summer full ‘o humidity and honestly, I don’t like it much.  Never thought I’d say it, but thank goodness for my aire conditioner, my own personal fans in each room, and a shady, cool spot in the…
