Pictures! Yay!

 So I went to my last picture post and found that I haven't put up pics since the 5th.  Then I went to my roll and found I didn't take any more since the 18th (a week ago yesterday).  So that's where we begin...


Still not back to those pre-dawn starts, lol


Dandelions and violets coming in

And these tiny white guys, too


Seconds after 3 squirrels started playing on this tree, and seconds before the one lowest ran right into the butt of the one you can see

"You must be kidding!"


My favorite time of year- the dance of the little flowers





Good morning, Fort Wayne!

The beginning of a fun morning of watching the buzzards play

On the big hill




Yes, I was sitting down on a branch






There ended up 3 pairs altogether.  They were having a time!



The only one I could catch of three of 'em playing


Next we go to... ah, here it is, a rather boring Easter Sunday walk...


Well, this was new...


This one, too- it busted into 3...



Those were pretty

Next, we go to... a Tuesday evening jaunt...


Doggie at full throttle




The PFW rowing team and their coaches




The clear path through the hidden trail

Something we didn't see a lot last year, the Duck Pond being a pond


Of course a stop at Scrappy's Landing for a swim




Somewhere on the way back, we ran into a kid that told us we just missed three beavers by the creek about a half hour before.  IDK if he could tell a beaver from a 'skrat, but that is where we have seen one a few years back...

Which brings us to... yesterday:


Slightly cool light breeze, kinda humid- and at 0715, our earliest start in a while

He was singing at us

Anthills have sprung to life

Here, the color of spring is purple

I just saw some tweet that claimed "Experts have been lying to us" that dandelions are harmful and must be destroyed.  Not only have I never heard that, but I grew up in a family that combed the yard for dandelion greens as soon as the snow melted.


Ah, the green...


Later in the day, I tumbled onto a site that, if you downloaded your picture, it would tell you what kind of dog you are.  It said I was most Bassett Hound, followed by English Bulldog and Bloodhound (because of my "rugged hat", lol)



A rare occasion Misty was interested in a squirrel

Oreo and Daddy

Misty watching another squirrel run down the trail

That would be the one

Getting a big bunch of stuff for the nest

Finally got to sit on the new benches.  Misty was cool with chillin'...

...for about a minute and a half


Looking for something in the Swamp

It looks like we have shifted from underwear to socks on the trail



Laurie paused ADAM-12 to eat lunch.  I took one look and said, "Darn it, Malloy, you stinky bastard!"

Finally, we close with me and KC in our Bob's Bar regalia...

  1. I would be some sort of "yappy" dog, most likely. I was wondering where the pictures were.

    1. Well, lots of rain, a run of being sick, and a lack of inspiration until Spring sprung...

  2. Looks like spring has sprung in your neck of the woods! We are finally seeing some signs as well. Trying to picture what a Bassett Hound/Bulldog/Bloodhound looks like made me laugh. ☺ Bob's Bar must be a fun place. Cheers! 🍻
