Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog.  This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).

As Indian Winter (see last week’s FUF if you want explanation) continues this summer, here in the Mid-Atlantic, we are having some wonderful fall weather.  We have had the windows open almost every day this week (except when it was raining).  I even had a sweatshirt on this morning out with the dogs.  But, it is August.  This is unheard of.  I am not complaining, but are we going to have summer in October?

Last Caturday, no one told me I had the wrong date on my post (it said 8.3.13 instead of 8.10.13).  You most have all thought I was a week behind.  Hahahahha.  Nine had his tail in the planter’s hands.  It was a purrffect tail aid.

Black and White Sunday was a fuzzy focused walk in the park with the girls, Louise and Sofie.  I liked the fuzzy effect (actually I did not even realize I did that), but some people didn’t like it.  Oh well.  Here is a picture from the same series but in color.

Mischief Monday found us down at the docks checking to see what was in the crab pots.  Nothing.

On Tuesday’s Tails, we featured a beautiful green-eyed senior kitty named Betty.  Everyone loved her eyes, her sour expression, and wished her a speedy new home.

Louise showed you her new pink flying thingie on Wordless Wednesday.  She keeps wanted to play tug with it, instead of toss (tug being her favorite game).  Sofie steals it and takes it under a tree, and then you know the rest….

Gimme that! No, you gimme that!
It’s MINE! MMMMMOOOOOMMM!

And, Thankful Thursday, I grabbed a great old shot of Muffin laying on tomatoes from our garden.  The first crop is in, and I just love that picture.  Really miss that Muffin Man.

That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.  Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.

Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog.  This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).

The weather broke beautiful this week from that terrible heat we have been having.  They call the warm weather of late autumn, Indian Summer, so I am going to call this, Indian Winter.  (reference: Deedler, William (Fall 1996). “Just What Is Indian Summer And Did Indians Really Have Anything To Do With It?”. National Weather Service Detroit office.))  I am not complaining, it is marvelous.  Actually Indian WInter supposedly happens in the spring when you think winter is over but then it snows, but I think all this cool weather in summer deserves a name too.

On Caturday, the 3 cats were on the bed for their late night snack.  These 3 only come together for eating.  It was easier to take a picture when there were 5 then it is for 3,  I guess Noel really wants nothing to do with the young ones.  I can understand, because Nine is a bully.  Here were the 5 in bed with me before we lost Muffy and Cuddles.

Black & White Sunday was a cool shot of the dogs in the sports field.  I think the mowed grass looks like waves in the ocean.  What do you think?

Of course the dogs were up to their usual Mischief Monday.  We were sitting nicely on the couch watching a TV show when they had to toss and bite for a better position near me.  Actually, I should say Sofie did, since she seems to always be the one to start something.  BOL.

Sofie: I want to be a cat so I can snack on the bed too!

I showcased 2 new seniors on Tuesday’s Tails.  It is so sad when seniors are in the shelter.  I do hope it helps them find their final homes.  I wish I could create a no-kill safe home for animals 7 and older.  Wouldn’t that be great.  Shady Acres.  They could live out there lives or find final homes. Oh Dog, I don’t want to think about the amount of care that would take –  I can dream though, right?

Wordless Wednesday were our constant pool guests – uninvited but always welcome.  We have several pair of ducks that return year after year.  I do wonder if they are generations of the previous families?  How long do ducks live and do they come back to the same nesting spots year after year?  We like to name them.  Last year I had 7 males that hung together in the bushes all the time.  Duck Gangs!

There is so much to be Thankful for and Thankful Thursday focused to the heavens and gave you a beautiful dog cloud.  I love cloud formations and pride myself on seeing all kinds of things.

That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.  Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.
