Faking it

Jamie 'faked out' Vivian and Nora,at the start of the marathon swim August 17,  pretending he was going to jump with them off the dock, but then stopping on the edge. He DID get in, a little later, and had to hurry to catch up to the girls

the Moose Cafe -- more than just a great place to eat

Did you know that there are all kinds of interesting things available for sale at the Moose Cafe in Dwight?





From these gorgeous alpaca scarves and ponchos, through t-shirts, hoodies, even take out frozen ready-to-go meals in the freezer.


And really really good food for breakfast and lunch.  They will do anything on the menu as a take-out as well, and also provide packed lunches if you are heading into the Park.

How Many Kids?

How many kids can 'pile on' one poodle?  Taffy is so good with the kids, and
loves to be snuggled and petted.  Good thing, with these love-bugs surrounding her!

Company in the Bay

We had a lot of company on the marathon swim this morning -- a loon joining the swimmers, a great blue heron flying overhead, and a deer coming out into the cat-tails in the corner of the bay. Couldn't get much in the way of photos, at least not of the wildlife! But I did get these snaps of the swimmers chatting to the loon in passing!

Classic S'more!

Cat jail, with benefits

Indigo is in "time out" because she has been hunting the little tiny ducklings waddling across our big front lawn. (not fair to the ducklings to let her hunt them down!) She is spending part of her day in 'cat jail', with food, water, comfy napping spots... and today she had visitation from some of her fan club. She seems quite content in her new daily digs, and comes in of course for the rest of the day/night.

Pony Wednesday

It's a pony parade!  Wednesday afternoons, we take all the young set for a pony ride, on Squeegee and his friend Snowbird
