Tidewash

Power? More likely tidewash. Well at least Miles has Snoop Dog to lean on.

Labor (Snooze) Day

Winston sleeps hard, plays hard, and eats with gusto. He can also pitch a really good fit if he thinks he's being unjustly treated.

Things Black, Red and Fawn

I bought a new purse last weekend. Marshall's has the best deals on purses.

I got a total of 2 tomatoes from the garden...no rain.

Watermelon

This picture came from the Alexandria Town Talk.

Roasted Rind

All my watermelon rinds have been out in the garden roasting and shrinking under the sun's rays. The boys decided to start chewing on this stuff. Why? What can it taste like? Dog stomachs are truly amazing.

Visitors

Brotherly Love

Winston gave Monty a kiss. Monty evidently did not mind. Winston is not a licker, but he will lick Monty from time to time.

I have several cucumbers growing, the squash are still small, and the tomatoes have just started to bloom.

This lemonade was great if you like it tart and sweet. I finally found it cheap enough to try with a coupon.

5K Run

My husband ran in a 5K this morning in Centerville. The first 800 participants got a free running shirt.

We are awaiting the rain to stop so we can grill some burgers. The boys have slept most of the day.

Cityfolk Dayton

Tonight we went to Dayton's Cityfolk festival to hear a little salsa and some cajun music. The cajun band was Geno Delafose and French Rockin' Boogie. Cajun music is happy music. It makes you want to dance! The festival will conclude Saturday night.


Today I cooked some pork shoulder ribs. The boys got the bones and we put sauce in the meat for sandwiches with pickles and onions. We also had homemade fries. It rained on and off during the day.

Saturday

Yes, I need to do a lot of weeding. The grass has moved in .

Squash

The squash are looking good.



The cucumbers are blooming.


LSU lost to North Carolina twice, and now Georgia and Fresno State are in the finals; bulldogs vs. bulldogs.

The boys had a long walk today. There should be plenty of snoring tonight.

Ice Cream

M&Ms has a new ice cream treat. It's basically an ice cream bar with a thicker chocolate shell.

LSU begins playing in the College World Series on Sunday vs. North Carolina.

The Long, Long Pug

Monty looks so long in this picture.


Winston's nails are not in great condition. His outer ones on his front paws are black and they grow in such a curvy way that it is very hard to trim them without hurting him. His inner nails are very soft and split. He even has a callus that bleeds sometimes after a walk. But, he loves to walk.

LSU starts the super regionals today against UC-Irvine. They wore the same gold uniforms until halted by the NCAA. Their winning streak stands at 23 games and they found a way to wear some gold.
