XMAS DAY BEACH WALK

Seriously!

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day weather-wise.

It felt like spring had arrived and winter was just a sweet memory.

I even went in for a swim.

 Mr. Orangie was in rare form,

so I figured that he needed reigning in / taming down

so I was super focused in rescue mode!

Daddy Jim was sporting his new down Arcteryx hoodie jacket

which he says will definitely take care of the Jan/Feb/Mar cold wind and snows.

After last winter's onslaught (the worst in recent memory)

I heard him mumbling "....just bring it on Old Man Winter, now just bring it on!!"

I ran into mucho furry friends like these 2 Leonbergers and a mini-poodle.

Oh yes, super friendly for sure.

 Lookee here!

Our tails match, not planned in the least.

Very short video (less than one minute) will show you how great a day we had.

Even this Queen of Hearts was holding court high on the rocks!

Come back again soon,

since the New Year 2016

is looming on the horizon!

CHEERS!!

BRIEF REPREIVE

High on the hill 

(my favourite spot in the whole Doodle World)

I search for the never-ending answer.

To what?

You may ask.

Well, solitude for one thing

a singular moment in time.

Peace for all of you and the world

yes the entire world.

The snows are beginning to paint out landscape.

You can see my cherry tree buoying the soft white flakes

so precariously yet firmly.

These singular flakes come together

making a strong union

of beauty and strength.

We are like the snowflakes ~~~

(enjoy a moment of Gordon Lightfoot's - Song For A Winter's Night)

PLEASE MAY I 'AVE SOME MORE!!

1st snow has covered our world! 

On my deck 

where breakfast and supper

is served to HRD 

(Her Royal Doodle)

the wide open spaces

fresh air

and 

a dish full of my 

FULL MEAL DEAL

seems to illicit
this response

"Please may I 'ave some more"

with sweet apologies to
Oliver from Charles Dickens.

"FEELGOOD DAY"

It's Sunday morning

SPRINGLIKE 

and 

I have just dropped Daddy Jim off at his shop.

The beach is over the hill,

so

Daddy Ron and I decided a trek along the shore 

would start the day off perfectly.

I was stopped in my tracks immediately

because I saw a person sitting on the rocks.

~ in my DOODLEHEAD ~

"people mean treats"

As I approached the figure ~~~

Not fair!

I realized that I was totally wrong,

maybe it was the mirage effect

or

DOODLETREATSFOREVEREFFECT

that came over me,

so I moseyed on ~~~

looking for Mr. Orangie 

Do you see him?

I don't!

Again, Mr. Orangie just blends in.

Maybe a good inhale of this seaweed will

improve my GPS skills!

Maybe not!

If you see him in this picture then you have better eyes than me.

I saw these hearts on the beach

and

felt pretty good all over.

We galloped back home for a break  

and then ~~

 returned around 4:30 

to pick up Daddy Jim.

This fellow was just hanging around

gliding on the currents

up and down

the hillside.

He saw me 

because he waved.

I flipped my tail at him

and

he slipped up the slope again.

 The sun had almost disappeared on the horizon

signifying that another day had come and gone.

This was quite a special day

nothing extraordinary

just a 

"feelgood day"!

~~

I hope your day was a 

"feelgood day" 

too

Hey!

if it wasn't then re-read this post

and

maybe you'll feel a bit better.

NAMASTE!!!
