Mixed Bag

August passed by in a flash, and I was so busy enjoying myself, I forgot to share it all with you! Plus I had to wait my turn...




Early in August was my play date with new Westie friends Bonnie and Kenzie. We trekked over to the South Side to visit with them in their local Dog Park and met Patch and some other regulars. It was a wonderful outing and I had a lot of fun with the li'l one, when she wasn't having a good ol' sniff up my behind... I guess that was the price I had to pay for digging up the bones in their garden and eating them all myself, but hey, I never turned a good bone down!

After all, I had been given my own bone a few days before... I chewed on it all day and buried it in a great spot in the corner of my adventure playground. I offered to show Her where it was and I proudly dug it up and thought I could get away with hiding it my bed, but She wasn't having a bar of it. She took a photo for posterity and promptly took it away. Fair enough though, I had had a huge Fat Hit by then and really needed a sleep!

Then there was the Sunday Family Breakfast outing. They took me to the beach, and after our walk, we had breakfast at the Full Moon Hotel.




Thoughtfully, they have a section cordoned off for people, so They could come too, but I could enjoy myself without being interrupted. I brought my spinach and lite cheddar bites to go with my water, while They had toast and coffee.

After He saw the quality of my quiche, He took it upon himself to have a Bake Off. So, He took the opportunity to do some good, and baked cupcakes for the RSPCA. It took Him ALL afternoon, but He had a lot of fun! Being the inspiration, I have to say He achieved a very good likeness - I sat quietly for hours to ensure accuracy with every detail (and of course, be Floor Supervisor...). Unfortunately, though, I wasn't allowed to be part of the Quality Control Team, no matter how cute I tried to be. Of course, when She took them to work to sell them, they sold like Hot-Cupcakes!
And to cap the month off, with the warmer weather, Larry the Lizard has resurfaced and I am all over him like a rash. I've been stalking him for days, and today, BINGO, I got him! I am glad Summer's here, I can hunt with purpose!
