Autumnal and such

The leaves are starting to really fall now. Our nieces helped me to pick out some good ones. Anyhow, here's a sampling of what's in the yard...

Wild primate visitors

Here are the Delehanty's playing with our little friend Angus...

The protector

We got in a couple of loads of wood. I guess that the pile makes a great spot to oversee the yard from as well as a sweet spot to sunbathe. Just wait until mice start looking to move in...

All whipped up

After the taxing stroll 50' up the road and back, Clovis tends to get really exhausted (who wouldn't?). Just getting back up the driveway is a chore. It's all made so much harder when you have the man beating you with your own leash and wild tigers in your path. What's a poor pup to do?

Full moon

Apparently last night's moon was so full it decided to keep making a show into the daylight hours. Here's what we saw on our morning walkies...

In the land of canines

Here is the most positive person we know. She never has a bad word to say about anyone. Even in the most trying of circumstances, she excels. I think it must be all the dog therapy Annelise gets that makes her so nice!

Cleese on Palin...

...not Michael Palin either.
Actually, the joke kind of makes itself, so he really doesn't have to say much. But I guess that at least he's laughing and not crying. So, that's something.

The human exhibit

We went off to the Natural Science Center yesterday with Dad and Maria. Here they are admiring the gibbons and lemurs...



Here are some peculiar bugs we came across...





You can just see why we ladies had to beat the boys off with sticks...right (because they thought we'd be fun to put in a jar - hopefully with holes in the lid)?!?!

The great schlep

Ha! I wonder what Mr. Obama makes of this support...
