3.29.13 Follow Up Friday: Super Wow!

stats 3.29

woohoo_2_5B1_5D2152252244487Imagine my surprise this week when Friday and Saturday were the biggest blog days of my blogging career.  I didn’t know what was going on.  What I figured out is that someone on Pinterest, repinned a blog I did last August on Hornero Nest Building.  So for 3 days my blog traffic went through the roof.  And I thought maybe I was hitting Rockstar status, but luckily, DogDaz is back to normal.  Thank you to my true followers, YOU, for being here with me through the statistical ups and downs.  

2013-03-14_13-28-20_833Overall it was a quiet week at the zoo.  People really connected with the shadow dogs on Sunday.  I guess shadows are part of how we know we are alive.  I think shadows are cool and when you walk alone, or travel to a lot of places by yourself, sometimes they are the only document of the fact that you were really there.  

We had our first snow storm on Monday, now that it is spring in the Northern Hemisphere (go figure that out).  The cats really enjoyed looking at it.  The dogs enjoyed eating it.  Sofie did not like the icy slush on her paws, but it was over as fast as it came.  By Tuesday all had melted.

As we told you, Sofie was very busy down by the beach and found the remnants of a fire in the horseshoe pit and broken glass.  This is a sad state of affairs and many people shared our anger that a few rotten eggs seem to spoil the fun for everyone. I don’t think we are every going to change that anywhere in the world, there will always be spoilers, but at least, we don’t have to be one of them and the dogs and I try to leave places BETTER than we found them.  

The girls and I have been walking everyday but it is not always easy and rarely pain free.  Thank you all for your care and concern.  I do tend to do to much walking, especially when it comes to the dogs.  ICE is my friend.  Actually, I should go get some right now since we just came in from our afternoon jaunt……

I am back.  A nice ice pack on the knee makes a world of difference.  Well, that’s it for the week here at the DogDaz Zoo. Thanks for playing along with us.

3.27.13 Wordless Wednesday: Mopey Sofie

wpid-IMG953027.jpgI was away last weekend.  Sofie was not happy about it.  Poor Sofie.  That is her moping step.  She waits there until I return, unless of course someone gives her food, or a toy, or a cat wants to get down the stairs. K8 took the picture. She sent it to me on my phone.  BOL.   Happy Wednesday.

3.26.13 DeTails

Sofie TailSofie’s tail against Louise’s black fur.  It looked really cool to me.  They were lying on Peanut’s bed.

I wish sometimes that I could be faster on the camera.  There are so many times when I want to capture what I am looking at, or sounds that I hear, and share them with others, but I don’t have the technology.  We  have become a world of sharing images and sounds.  Thanks to the internet we are able to capture moments in time and catapult them across the universe.  It is amazing how much more we can experience because of these incredible inventions.  Innovation is endless.  “G-d is in the details.”

3.25.13 Monday Mischief: I Smell Smoke

2013-03-17_13-31-26_657

2013-03-17_13-31-44_678

What is that I smell?  There is something different down here by the water. FIRE!  I smell a fire.  Mommy says that I should stay away from fire. I like the smell though.  When Mommy was a little girl her house burned down, so she does not like the smell at all.  She worries at the slightest burning smell.  

Wait!  We don’t have a fire pit by the water.  That was the Horse Shoe game pit.  Someone burned stuff in the game pit.  And there is also glass in there; someone smashed a bottle.  This looks pretty dangerous.  Why don’t people take care of things?  Especially in a shared place like the private neighborhood waterfront.  This makes us all sad.  

We will stay away from the smokey smell and the glass Mom.  But can we go into the river now?  (Mom Note: Which Sofie did immediately following, without asking, but I was so glad she left the pit alone so  I let it go.)
