COME ALONG WITH ME

When the skies are blue, 

the air is fresh and clear,

when the green grasses go to sleep

smothering the ancient driftwood

you'll find me slipping through the dense mass

heading directly to the water's edge

bouncing back so very speedily

because the cooler temps just make your toes shiver

so a return to sleeping dune grasses

leads us gingerly along the undulating paths

directly to Daddy Jim's shop

in MacDonald House

so very far away 

on that hill.

~

COME ALONG WITH ME!!!

ANYTIME!!

'CRACKER JACK ON FIRE' MEMORY

Hey Sophie!

What's up?

Your 4 Doodle Paws are certainly in a hurry.

Where are you heading?

I know sweetie ~ Jim's not here with us!

Ain't as much fun without him, is it!?!

Mr. Orangie gets a workout  with mucho munching

when Daddy Jimbo has to work.

We'll make the best of it, honest!

Besides look over there on the hill.

He's working hard for only 4 hours today

meeting all kinds of people.

Remember the day he let you come inside MacDonald House

and you ran around like a cracker jack on fire!?!

Well, he remembers that too and

is thinking of you 

and

all the great help you assisted him with.

I just looked at the time and I think it's time to pick him up.

Let's Go!!

MISSION ~ DOODLE REFUELING TIME

 

Needing to refuel 

when obstacles pop up

means that I have responsibilities

so I take my guys to the hill to soak up this view

feel the warm grasses tickling my nose and toes

wondering if I am ever gone to be able to sneak inside 

Daddy Jim's shop to make sure all's well on the eastern front.

He goes here twice a week and I pick him up after work.

There just must be something in there that I could eat, sniff or lick.

I JUST KNOW THERE IS!

BUMBLEBEE & SPIDER

The grasses and flowers are so tall this year
that you can barely see me
as I forage
for tender grass shoots.

A quick romp across the sand to catch my companion
a shake off
and ~~

back into the jungle again.

These mini-daisylikes are very few

along my trail

but I sniff them anyway.

Could be edible!

Alas, not the case.

 How ever this is what I wanted to show you!
BUMBLEBEE vs SPIDER
(have a look at the video to see what happens)

such SPEED!

Next time you are in town ,
I'll personally show you around
and
protect you from those nasty spiders.

DO YOU HEAR HER?? I DO!!!

Seriously!
Just lean your head
a little bit to the right
there
listen quietly
and
click on the video!

Those hills are alive in my Doodle Imagination!
I could wander around here for the rest of my days!
How about you?
Do you have a favourite spot to get lost in?

EACH TO THEIR OWN

 ~~~ as the saying goes ~~ ~

FIND YOUR THRILL IN LIFE 

like these people soaring above on the wind currents

look what Jim found in the grasses

why it's little ol' me

with a new haircut

and

finding 

MY THRILL IN LIFE,

~ any guesses?

I'm sure you know exactly 

what turns 

MY DOODLE CRANK,

if your have been following 

MY DOODLE ANTICS 

over the last 5 years ~~~

See 

as I said,

"EACH TO THEIR OWN"

(Mr. O is safely tucked away in my jaw)

HAPPY CANADA DAY #148 !!

Refreshing moment on the way home the other day

sitting 

soaking up the view ~~ 

 the waves crashing on the rocks

a perfect east coast example

of my Canada!

lost in the fields

inhaling the sweet smells of new grasses

a fine abundant amount this year ~~

short and sweet 

is my message today

~~~

We all wish you a Happy Canada Day

where ever you live in this blog world of ours!!

DRIFTWOOD & CLOVER

Focused as usual along my trail 

now covered in clover

 sprinkled in daisies!

Follow me and I will show you 

my find,

my discovery!

First a FULL 90 degree downward SNIFF!

as completely all intoxicating

as even a simple group of stones

with a mini-palm tree

(at least in my Doodle mind, it is!)

Ron's arm was a bit wonky as he clicked me here.

OK, what is that over there,

all alone by itself?

Oh a silver white tree stump surviving the storms / gales / floods

so relentless in these parts.

But as I have always said,
"Find your clover and you'll find your happy place"

so enjoy a wee bit of happiness with this remix!

HOW I FIND MY INNER PEACE

Firstly, I stare at the guys
every morning 

which means
"let's go for a walk"

on the grassy dunes.

This time of year the wild strawberries are in full bloom.

Abundance is what I am finding,

~~ everywhere strawberry blossoms ~~

I'm a DOODLE ON A MISSION as usual,

so the rocks above the beach
need a complete sweep

and

with the new flock of surfers taking over the waters
I must make sure they are in safe waters

That's mighty exhausting for an 8 year old DOODLE,

so I'll plunk myself down here 

and

gnaw on Mr. Orangie for awhile!!

followed by a 

BACK SCRATCHING 

session 

of monumental proportions!

That FEELS so good!

(try saying that with your tongue sticking out of your mouth!)

so THIS is
my INNER PEACE routine
pretty much daily.
Sorry but I must continue on,
my nose has picked up
a scent
a sweet aroma
a mind-blowing fragrance,
give me some time
and
I will figure this one out.
