Beautiful Crisp Morning

Early morning walk Sunday November 16th 2014 along the Madawaska River.

Can your dog stack wood?

Captured this moment yesterday. Almost always Brodan will rest in his bed (bottom right corner of picture). I can only deduct one of two things made him get up in move. First there is something furry outside and he needed a better angle to keep an eye on. Second and probably closer to the correct answer he just needed that little extra warmth. Notice his water bowl. When he gets too warm by the fire : B-Man will have a little drink to stay hydrated. Today I'm teaching him how to chop wood and stack.

That's the Meal Ticket

The rule during meal time is Brodan must lay down and not be within proximity of the dinner table. So he has decided to try to out fox us. Beneath the kitchen sink of course is where we scrape the dishes into the compost green bin. As you can see B-Man is garburator ready. What's better he's not looking at us so he's one hundred percent innocent. Hey Guys i'm laying down like you told me. Further below, Meal Ticket B-Man then gets his ears scratched by Mom afterwards.

Garburator ready

Scratch My Ear Mom

Brodan & the Kayak.

 He's loyal.
Perhaps B-Man thought i was taking another mode of transportation back to Barrie and didn't want to be left behind?
Brodan followed me down the shoreline for several hundred meters. In the bottom picture Brodan instructs H how to get the maximum efficiency out of each paddle stroke. She had no idea she was dong it wrong. Thanks Brodan.
On a side note the very highest level I have seen the Madawaska River in 28 years.

He's Still Got It !

Brodan Goes for a drink on Mother's Day

Thank God for Windows

High Alert

Its mid afternoon. Something, or something has, or something is about to happen, but what. The intensity in B-Man's crouch reveals there is more than a black squirrel or a cat in our back yard. My guess is the wild hare is back prancing along the fence line.

Its possibly there is clown grading cheese in the corner of the lot, but highly unlikely.
Its possible the neighbour behind us has found Brodan's two frisbees from winter play and has set them a blaze with a propane torch.

But not likely.

The High Alert watch last three to four minutes and then life returns to normal.
