MY ANGEL of the WOODS

Caught your eye again, 

I see

Come along and let me show you my discovery ~

Since I have my nose to the ground 95% of the time

 I almost missed this beauty of a gem
hanging in the trees recently

 fluttering as the breezes slipped passed

She is my ANGEL of the WOODS
and
she brings me
much joy!

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!!

LEAP YEAR DAY ~ 29TH!!

I decided to round up this month 

with a sampling of all my experiences.

~ this 29th day of February ~

I hadn't had a haircut in months so by the 23rd it was time

so the before picture was shot 

on the grassy dunes by Daddy Jim!

 The Valentine's bouquet was flourishing very well

courtesy a friend of Jim's.

Flowers like this erica, white heath were ready to bloom.

We have been experiencing a very mild February this year

compared to last year's snowmageddon!

On one super cold night 

Daddy Jim made an apple/berry crisp.

They said it was delightful!

I actually was able to run full out on the beach !

I felt like it was summer time

with a quick dip in the water 

grabbing Mr. Orangie

from a fate worse than death.

The winds would catch the spray drawing us down the beach.

Just a wee bit of snow to manoeuvre,

no chance of slipping this year!

Since there are many cousin dogs 

we decided to get together at Point Pleasant Park

which by the looks on all these faces 

was an all round hit.

Daddy Jim had his eye on many things this month like  ~~

this red flowered pitcher and glasses set 

 which had already been added to 

this tomato painted frosted glass set

already acquired a few years ago.

 Any snow that dared to show it's face

was annihilated by yours truly ~ 

besides it tastes good!

As I mentioned before the Valentines bouquet held up really well.

You can see me in the middle 

DOODLE DANCING

around Jim and his school mate Ilze (red dress)

at a pop up art show.

Slowness is not in my vocabulary

when blond ladies pay attention to me.

Really!

I needed an occasional zen walk

This rusted train trestle

caught Daddy Ron's eye

as he picked me up from my haircut.

and we have done a full 360 

finally showing you my haircut

and

this sweet baby Corgi, named Farley

who played nose's with me

just yesterday.

~~~

See you again in 4 years!

Doodle over and out here!!

~~ ON THE WING ~~

Sauntering slowly and listening with intent 

Jim and I head into the park

ending up at the pond 

just 5 minutes into the park

filled with

WINGS

flitting every where

this amazing creature with

4 wings

1/2 transparent and 1/2 chocolate brown

the pond water was so still mirror-like

with hundreds of speedy dragonflies

dodging each other and us

Do you see the double attached dragonflies 

on the right-hand side with the reflection below?

Such is the speed I was telling you about.

No one was sitting still for our cameras today.

So close these 2 were,

I suspect they were mating

After leaving and returning to
 MacDonald Hill
for fresh cool air

this seagull soared by
heading across the expanse
into the mist.

Wings of all sorts today!

Someday I will fly on the breezes like

all my winged friends!

I'M SORE, BUT I'M A TROOPER

It's 4 days since my surgery 

and the guys figured I needed to get out.

Shack Wacky!

Well that's an understatement.

So I fell into line 

between the guys

as I always do,

but this time I was tethered to my leash

in case I had any great ideas 

like running away 

to scratch my behind all over the ground!

Jim even holds my poop bag

what a cool Daddio he is.

But I figured I should show you 

what all this fuss is about.

You can see undissolvable stitches all around my vulva, right!?

Hang in with me OK!

Well, this is where a large piece of fat was growing

and covering up my vulva 

causing a rash etc.

Now I'm a normal Doodle doggy.

Yes, it's sore but as the title says

"I'M A TROOPER"

Forward Ho!

Now I think it's time to head back to the car

and get home before sundown.

Thanks as always for your support.

PS: My apologies if seeing the stitches was too much,

but just imagine I have to feel them!

'SANDWICH' DROOL TIME •*¨*•♫♪

The guys got me 

GOOD 

this morning on the beach 

after Hurricane Arthur

settled down.

They think they are so funny!

Do you know the ol' SANDWICH joke?

Now I do!!

I fixed them good though

and 

slobbered my 

DROOL 

all over them.

•*¨*•♫♪ RIGHT SOME GOOD •*¨*•♫♪

as they sing in these parts!

LOL!!

Hill of hills!

This hill allows me to be myself to the nth degree....
running, snooping, rolling over and just sniffing the air.
What do you think of my place?

Up the grassy slope passed MacDonald House Museum and Tea Room, we settle for a relaxing moment on the edge of the uppermost part of the trail.

This is when something takes over me and I just become possessed....

and when I get the itching and scratching frenzy over with, I relax and take in the view. This is my natural high moment in more ways than one ...

so relaxed now....

down below, all you see are these people floating and gliding along the water.

Inner peace can be found in so many ways.
