Sunday was a day for napping!

q





Who doesn't enjoy a good nap on a Sunday afternoon?  I love to nap on my mama. But I'm not the only one...

Mickie Blue Eyes had the nerve to just jump up and sprawl all over me!  Guess I make a mighty fine pillow.

Ah well, he will keep me nice and warm.  Just don't wiggle around too much little guy, and no kneading with your claws!

Actually this is rather nice...I could get used to this.

He makes a pretty good foot rest too.

OK, I'm totally down with this.  Gonna let it all hang out now.

ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......








Awesome...a relaxing afternoon nap!

King Crab!

a

Mom says one of the great reasons to live in Alaska is the abundance of Alaskan King Crab.  We have been lucky this year to have been gifted  large amounts of King Crab three times this year!  Thank you friends and neighbors!

Scarey looking when alive, but oh so delicious  with drawn lemon-garlic butter or made into yummy crab cakes!

Mom says cleaning them is hard work and sometimes involves a band-aid or two!  But well worth the effort.

This is making me drool...                succulent!

Oh boy, King Crabby Patties!

Oh mama, I hope your cooking one of those for me.

No worries, I did get some, and it was darn good too!








awesome...Alaskan King Crab fresh out of the hot pot!

Another life saved!

w

I live in a house with four cats.  There are bound to be some bugs, mice and birds killed.  However, at least one of our cats just likes to play with them.  She will bring them into the house alive, the birds fly around and poop all over the place, the mice run around and play hide and seek, the bugs, well they usually get eaten.  Mom does have a big collection of dried dragon flies though.

Karma

 

Today mom spent three hours trying to catch a little mouse Karma brought in.  He was a fast little guy! 

Eventually she caught him and returned him to the forest.  Another life saved.  So far that makes three mice and one bird saved this summer.  Keep up the good work mom!

awesome...finding your keys or credit card after looking forever.

Ducks, swimming, frisbee, park!

What an awesome day I spent in the park...

Cousin Bev is visiting and mom took us to the mid-town park for the afternoon.  The sun was really bright and oh so warm.  Bev is really fun and likes to throw the round thingy for me.

The more I jumped the more she would throw it!

I don't need much encouragement!

This is also the park with a lake filled full of ducks and geese!  Perfect!

I could use a swim to cool off and get a big drink.  It is hot out today!

And waterfowl to entertain me too!

Baby ducks and geese abound.  Here are some goslings swimming with their parents.

Mama ducks with their ducklings.

So cute!

They can even walk (or run) on water.  Here they are running to dad and away from me.

I met a friend of mine, Noodles!  Sometimes I see  Noodles at the dentist office where mom gets her teeth checked.  Noodles belongs to one of the nice ladies that work there.

I made a new friend. A very pretty Bull Terrier and she likes to play Frisbee too!  Can't beat that.

What a super duper day!











awesome...solving the Wheel of Fortune puzzle before the people on the show.

Soft seat

Mama had a yard sale last weekend...

As usual I found the best seat in the house!

awesome...a sunny day spent at the lake!

Dog sitting

w






My mama has been dog sitting the neighbors dog Chili while they are in Europe. I never cared much for Chili. He is a rescued dog with fear aggression and attacks me. Now he is my arch enemy and I attack him too. I just hate it when mom leaves the backyard to go take care of him. I wait at the property line till she returns.  She promised me she won't do this to me again. 

He looks all sweet and innocent, but if your a dog you'd best keep your distance! 

Mom says the best way to wear him out in a good long bike ride!  Despite the look on his face he loves it.  Only dangerous for mom if she passes another dog.   She learned the hard way to stop and keep a firm grip on him or else he would pull the bike over. You should she her elbow!  All bloody and bruised from the first encounter. 



Mom here... " Chili is a the sweetest dog with people, just very afraid of other dogs.  Poor guy.  His  folks just got home and brought me the most beautiful silk and cashmere scarf from Verona Italy!  But I don't think I will put Ryker through this again, he was so very jealous of the time I spent with Chili."






awesome...being able to take an afternoon nap!
