Hello everyone. This is The Daily Bone and I'm your perky doggie reporter Chester L. W. Spaniel.
It's been kind of a slow day today. The sky was gray, the wind was light, and it was cold and damp out. So we'll show you a few pictures of our icicles yesterday:
Some of them fell down and broke into pieces. So sorry Charlie, but they do not taste like ice cream. They just taste like regular cold water, with a hint of tar from the roof shingles. These particular ones have the added flavor of chives since that's what their lying on top of.
Unfortunately, overnight all of our wonderful snow melted. Ghostwriter says, good riddance, and she hopes it doesn't come back till next winter. I say be careful what you wish for.
Because it's now officially mud season.
Oh, and ghostwriter wanted to show everyone the stuff that's growing in the garden, since there's nothing else going on right now.

Well, THAT was pretty boring!
Now it's time for some real action from the
DOUBLE DOGGIE HOMELAND SECURITY SYSTEM!
Mr. Seedcruncher, CEO of Sparrows Incorporated is here to report that the Evil Squirrel Cartel has been raiding the window birdie feeder. "The dastardly rodent has figured out how to get in there and he's been eating all the sunflower seeds that my girls need for maximum egg laying capacity."
"See him there, Chester? He's sneaking towards the pear tree as we speak!"
Copy that. Evil Squirrel Cartel operative at twelve o'clock! Grrrrrrrrrr.
Here he comes!
Wait for it … Wait for it …
Wow! That guy's got some nerve!
He's right under the window. We're ready to launch fur torpedoes.
T-minus 3 … 2 … 1 …

She did not even take any pictures of those; Charlie you would have oogled your eyes on them they were oh so big...We had snow that was way too deep fur my liking; of course any snow is too deep fur me, BOL!
ReplyDeleteToday after a bit of sleet and freezing rain we had buckets and buckets of t=rain. Now we have to use an ark I think...
Growlmy almost feel off her chair with a great guffaw when she saw that peek-a-boo tree rat. What a bold rapscallion! Grrr!
I was snoozing and looked up to see why she was so loud...she said, well them New York Spaniels were having some good fun evicting a tree rat...they thought:)
