Tuesday Evening News

Hello everyone. This is The Daily Bone and I'm your windblown doggie reporter 

Chester L. W. Spaniel. 

As you can see in the picture above, it's very windy out. My ears are flapping while I'm just standing here! I've been remiss on my posting, so now I have a very busy report for you.

On Sunday, my favorite miniature human, Ryan, came over for dinner. He's not so little anymore.

And he still loves to play with cars and trucks.

Maybe the next time he visits we can go out and run around the yard.

Monday morning I saw old Fatty White-Ears the squirrel gobbling up birdie seeds from the ground under the birdie feeder. Poor Debbie Dove could hardly get any!

So I zoomed out and chased him up the pear tree. That wasn't very smart of him, because there's no where else to go from up there. I would have barked all day at him, but ghostwriter thought it would annoy the neighbors. So grudgingly, I had to go back inside the house. 

But that's OK. Debbie Dove came by to thank me for chasing that rascal squirrel away so she would have more seeds to eat.

Thank you very much, Chester!

My pleasure, Ma'am.

Monday evening, a big thunderstorm rolled in with lots of wind and torrential rain. There was even a tornado watch for a little while. But the storm passed. You wouldn't believe the sunset we had! 

Do you see how lumpy those clouds look? Those are called mammatus clouds, and they're often associated with storms. Here's an article in case you want to know more about them:

For a few minutes, the sunset became all gold, and then fiery orange.

But that wasn't the end of our crazy weather! This morning we had hail coming down!

I couldn't go out in that, but I did get to bark at alias Twinkletoes the squirrel from my drive-through barking window. Do you see him halfway up the clothes line pole? What's with those dumb squirrels out in the rain and hail?

At dinner time, when the wind was gusting to 45 miles per hour, Dad went out to cook some nice steak on the grill. I got a bite of that yummy steak, plus some rice mixed with the steak juice from the serving platter.

Ooooo, tenderloin medium rare, basmati rice, and steamed vegetables.

Oh, and I almost forgot! The street cleaner truck went by today too! Wow!

And now you know the news.
