For the Joy of Winter

I apologize for the lapse in material. The holidays had us very busy, with running to one side of the family to the other to friends. There was quite a bit of car time for us driving around and sometimes, hanging in the car while Mom and Dad went in places. Ayla has some definite issues about being left behind. I tell her, "It's cool, you should use this time to rest before they take us running around some more. They will be back." And she's all, "That's all very nice for you, but I'm going to chew this car apart to figure out how to open the doors and go find them." So Mom had to spray nasty bitter stuff in the car and tire out the puppy more than usual.

Needless to say, all of this activity has kept me away from the computer. My laptop doesn't work in the car, but I've been thinking about all my loyal fans desperately awaiting an update.

We went out to Cape Cod - the top three pictures are from a beach near Hyannis. We also did some local hikes in Freetown and Brandt Island. We had an awesome time with our cousin Kyra who is a beautiful black lab. If I could actually catch her, I would tell her how much I dig her. You all know how I am with the ladies. Kyra really digs me too, she just plays it cool and she can't help running.

I'm sorry that these appear sometimes as a solid block of text. Blogspot has an issue with that and I hate doing it manually in the html. My paws are so incredibly awkward with the keyboard anyway.

We should be back on schedule with the posts from here on. Mom's particularly into hiking in the winter so we'll have more adventures coming in 2008. Unless of course, Ayla succeeds at her attempts to thwart me by chewing through the rest of the laptop powercord (how can that taste good?).
