In Honor of World Lion Day
Taken last spring as the oldest member of our pride adapted to his new desert home, learning to nap and snuggle in this arid landscape. Shot with my iPhone as Sam curled up on my legs as I relaxed on the couch. There are only a few of today’s technologies that it pains me we didn’t have in my youth, having a capable camera in your pocket is one of them.
Summer Sam
A quick shot of Sam in the living room, the big picture windows behind him, after I got back from a morning hike in July.
A Boo Box Within a Boo Box
Boo’s experiments with space-time are starting to concern me.
Current Mood
I’ve been a bit worn out this past month and haven’t been hiking in a couple of weeks, we’ll see how this weekend goes. I’m not completely exhausted like I was when we moved and during the last weeks of Ellie’s life, and I haven’t had to work long hours, rather it’s just that there’s been a lot going on, a lot to learn, and it’s taken a bit out of me. It hasn’t helped that this past week the night owl has been reasserting himself, if only I could sleep like Boo! Thankfully while he was pretty stressed after Ellie died our resident philosopher has been doing better lately.
A Ball in the Fall
Ellie and I taking advantage of a lovely fall afternoon in 2013 for a game of fetch. We didn’t have her when we bought the house so we got lucky that not only did we end up with a dog park nearby but with a fenced backyard with a nice area for play.
Alert! Fridge Door Opening Detected!
She’d swivel her floppy ears when she heard the fridge door opening but Ellie relied on her nose to tell her if she should get up or not. Yes if she smelled cheese or meat, no if vegetables.
