SHAKE ABOVE THE OCEAN

Welcome my dearies!

I lay high above the waters

staring down at the sights below ~~

just across from me is Conrad's Beach

with a few lucky people taking a walk ~~

over the edge of the slope 

you'll see a surfer finished for the day

climbing methodically and deliberately up the slope

but alas while they partake in their rituals

I partake in my DOODLE RITUALS

as I "shake above the ocean"

with my feet in the air!

(creative licence is in full DOODLE swing here ~ enjoy!)

MY CORKSCREW WITCH HAZEL

My winter garden holds about as much

 JOY and PEACE

as my spring, summer and fall gardens do ~

and lately this squiggly shrub called a

CORKSCREW WITCH HAZEL

has me entranced

as I circle underneath the twisted branches

searching for my buried 

DOODLE DOGGY BONES!

This massive monster tree ( Cupressus Nootkatensis) stands lofty 30 feet 

over my CSWH

protecting it from harsh north winds, raging hurricanes

and nor'easters.

Beauty is all around me in my winter garden.
Have a view below!

~~ as I tell you about my world the weather forecast

suggests that a nor'easter will descend upon us on Sunday late.

Please send us good vibes to melt that sucker

so SPRING can commence in true style!!

FLOATING

Have you ever felt like floating?

Well, today was one of those days!

TOGETHER FOREVER ~ MOCHA WHERE ARE YOU?

All winter I have stood on guard surveying the vast lands below me.

I have danced on the somewhat green grasses of Graham's Grove with Daddy Jim.

I have brushed noses with all sizes albeit brief.

I have teased every doggy friend I come in contact with

But alas my bestest friend Mocha hasn't appeared on the horizon  < (click for reference)



and I always thought we were "Together Forever"
but it seems like such huge long time since we played noses
on MacDonald Hill / Conrad's Beach & Lawrencetown Beach.

HAVE YOU SEEN MR. PHEZZIE?

Can you see yours truly?

If it took awhile,

well then 

now you know what it's like for me ~~

when I smell that smell 

hear that sound 

and

see that sight

so far these foot prints in the snow

prove that Mr. Phezzie is around here for sure 

and this video proves I know what sound they make

but alas I haven't been able to make friends

because as soon as I come whizzing down the garden

WHOOSH!!!

 Off they fly  

BYE BYE BYE!!♫♫♪

SEALS ~ SNOWBALLS & ALL THAT NONSENSE

 Watch Out!

Jim is a bit frisky 

with the bright springlike weather

and

snowballs!

One must always be aware when snowball snow

is all around you!

You'll see how much we all enjoy this park at this time of year

Sophie ~ chewing Mr. Orangie

Ron ~ taking pictures

Jim ~ throwing snowballs

See I told you the seals were here

taking in all our nonsense on the beach.

MR. ORANGIE WANNABEE ~ YIKES!!

Can you believe this!?!

Come along and see!

A Mr. Orangie Wannabee

has invaded my hill!

I know you can see that GIANT Mr. Orangie just above my tail, right!?!

It's time to sniff this fake out!

Jumping Doodles, it has the same colours

and it has feet!

also a head ~~~

massive sniffing and checking out the credentials before ~

this Mr. Orangie Wannbee fake takes off 

into the wild blue yonder.

For a second there I thought aliens had invaded.

Has this ever happened to you?

MY SKY !!

This was my sky view one night while driving home.

I was mesmerized as I wedged my 

DOODLE HEAD 

onto the open window ledge.

When I saw this video recently,

I just marveled at the skies of our planet!

ENJOY!!

LAMB ~ I'M FEELING LIKE A ~~~~

1st of March always is a game of 

LAMB or LION!

Sniffing every corner of the park

may just help me out this year!

Even down the slope to my fave beach at Point Pleasant Park

helped me make the big decision.

I reached the point of land facing the harbour entrance 

to check to see if I was right.

Satisfied I follow Jim passed the gazebo ~

head passed the salty Atlantic Ocean

into the woods along the edge of a cliff

now leading Jim

take a long slurp of fresh spring water

with my declaration

that March came in like LAMB.

~~

SPRING is so very close!!
