When's that summer comin'?

Lookin' very attentitve, yes? You know there is something that smells delicious up there! I am great and honing in on the goodies, and then lockin' on to them. Very strong jaws. But, first I work my charm.....those googily, sweet eyes, the undeniable attention..."it's all about you, hooman..your're so sweet and nice....I've got lots of time to admire you..." Very patient. Well, ok...if that doesn't work...I try other tactics...a stare-down of the delicious target to come to my level, in conjunction with the googily, sweet eyes...and by goodness! Often I am soon sampling a nibble! Or, if my super jaws can come in contact with the delicious item...I go for it! That's when the I don't hear the hooman say "ah! cute!", but something more like "Aow!!!!!!!" Oh well, got it!
Well, yes, I love sticks! As you can see I was surrounded by them. That is a nice day! Just need my hoomans to relax a little and give me more time to work on these sticks! There's lots of them and just one of me...."ok mom and dad, get it?" I usually don't get enough time, and have to get back into the floatable with mom, or keep walking around.....Mom says things like, "it's so beautiful out!" and I say things like "but, all my sticks!!"

Ok....so, my jaw latched on to something really good one day....that's me, by the lake, being 'scolded' by my hoomans...but guess what! I got that mouse, it was smelly, crunchy and my jaws are good at those sorts of things! I'm quick too. My hoomans didn't realize until it was TOO late. Ya know though, it wasn't that delicious....and doesn't make nice things in my stomach....I'm ok though.

There's me with a BIG stickie. Good stuff....excellent for my jaw exercises...

And me, just riding around....in the floatable...looking for more stickies....



















Ok, well it's not summer YET...but winter has a few things to offer.....will just wait for summer....
Chew some cold stickies, roll in the white snowy stuff and be happy about it...

  2. Oh Honey, I so wish I could be there floatin' with you. Your Mom is so right when she says it is beautiful out-but not as beautiful as you. I love you in the floatable. If you ever need help, I'm a whiz with sticks!

    Oh no, this is so embarrassing-Mom is drooling looking at those mountains and water.

    Woofs and cold, sticky slobbers!

  3. Honey,

    I wish I could come to my Packies'home state and take a swim with you.(They really want to move back to CA) I tried kayaking last year in the Charles River it was a blast, although I really wanted to jump in. How do you resist?

    Have a good weekend.

    Your friend Harry in Beantown.

  4. Hi there! Honey here....
    Well....just to let you know..these are photos from some special trips...sadly, we don't live at them! Though, mom and dad and I would LOVE to, of course!
    And, Harry....yea, I do go in the water, don't jump in these days though. Move back to CA! We love the sierras...these are photos from Sequoia National Forest and Courtwright Reservoir, in Sierra National Forest.
    Thanks for stopping by!
    Cheers!!! Honey

  5. Hey Honey! You just look so cute by the lake. And, as far as the mouse goes, you might try birds instead. I say this from experience! They are just yummy. I never had a mouse though!

  11. Sweet Honey, those are great pictures of woo. Stickies, who does like stickies? I sure love to chew them too, like you. Love, Samantha

    Pawsome job on the mouse! I got a mouse one time too but mom was too quick to take it away from me. I worked hard in getting that mouse.
    We've never been on a floatable before, mom and dad has one but they said it's too small for Sam and I to be in there too. Hugs, June

  16. This looks like fun! I asked my mum and she said I've been to the PacNW. There was lots of water and smelly things to roll in. We could have a lot of fun together.

  17. Hi there Honey...
    Yep you do live in an amazing part of the world! I wish I could see snow and test out my thick coat too. Kayaking also sounds so cool! Here in South Africa it is very hot and I suppose you'd consider our weather "Summer all-year-round". We do however get to cool off in our swimming pool here at home. I'm sooo envious of your environment. Thanks for your comment on my own blog.

    I'm just a 10 year old boy who, like my Mom, has a special place in the heart for 'golden oldies'. WE ARE most special!!!

    Want you to know my intentions are and were honorable, and I just think you're a most beautiful and special girl! And I love readin bout your ventures and your life!

    Wif love from the Luke
