Hiking in Indiankill

It was very warm today....over 80 degs....so we decided to take the dogs to the Indiankill Nature Preserve.
It is a nice cool place to go on a hot day.
It's a pretty strenuous hike tho with lots of hills!
Then you get to this beautiful rocky ledge with a series of waterfalls.

Bernie was scouting it out before he took the plunge.
He loves to swim.


Molly stood on the bank watching but she does not like deep water....even tho she can swim.
She talked him into going in the "kiddie" pool!

  1. It looks beautiful.
    hah, the girls were watching a program on dogs this morning and it was talking all about poodles and how they love to swim. Made me think of Molly. S'pose I should have known better than to throw her in with the commoners.

    1. Here I was thinking it was the poodle in her that didn't like to swim! It's just another "Molly quirk"!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BIG BROTHER

Happy birthday to my big brother Terry...........have a wonderful day!

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while &

Yea for Don the repair guy!

My new BFF is Don the repair guy who came today to fix the dishwasher. Amazingly, after he took the door apart it would close - I really did not believe the handle was broken but was defective! It had never felt right........always kinda loose. Anyway he decided that as long as we had a new handle he would install it & even gave me the old one as a back-up. Works much better now. Funny story - while he was here he got a phone call from the office telling him one of his earlier repairs of the day had called saying their dishwasher would not start at all. He called the lady back & suggested different things for her to try but nothing worked. He said he would stop back after his next call to see what it could be. As he hung up I said "Sounds to me like she has the "child lock control" on!". Sure enough after another phone call that turned out to be the problem! Maybe I need a change of careers!!!!!
