SUNDAY OCTOBER 18, 2015

Good morning. The cycle of life hit me with a Facebook reminder today ... 5 years ago today Shiloh was laid to rest. Robbie hadn't been born yet ... and often I have called Robs the wrong name. These dogs sure steal a hunk of my heart. 

Shiloh, aka Cutie-Patootie, at age 12+, our Southern Gentleman! Poor guy needed eye drops 3x a day ... he'd come to us, sit up and wait. Such a darling soul. We miss you still ... 

Mark and Lew went tramping in the woods this morning. It was a perfect day for that, and they enjoyed themselves.

There's a little mud on Da Mounty ... notice Lew's gun. Small eh! (Lew lost 40 lbs on Weight Watchers this year and needs his hunting pants taken in!) LOL

Yesterday, Julius and Shorty had their photo taken after grooming. I bet I'll see it on Shih Tzu rescue!

Julius and Shorty Hotpants ... good lookin' Shizzles!!! 

Across the pond, Patrick Tawns rowed for the Brits today. 

Thanks for posting this pic Alastair ... OMG, Pat's so tall! Lookin' good!

My pal Bonnie is fabulous ...

married life looks good on her. Nice photo, Roger. (They are going to be very busy in a few weeks ... Scottie girls Diana & Belize are BOTH pregnant with 7 puppies expected. Oh what noisy fun!!!

The sire of Knopa, the 2015 Best in Show at Crufts, is the sire of Bonnie & Roger's two Scottie gals. Healthy, sound  Scotties are in the works. Yay. 

Well, it's tree trimming day at our house. Mark is up the ladder and I'm going to try and help, somehow. LOL. We shall see. (I did rake debris and pick up sticks. The job was done in an hour. One more to do next "Palm" Sunday then it will be finished for the winter! 

Tonight, Mark is cooking Mom's porkchops and rice dinner. Yes, it's my favorite. 

How was your Sunday? (Gorgeous here ... windy & 77).
