Peebles Island

 We had a trip planned to go to Peebles that we had to put off a week not realizing that the next Sunday Popster had a golf tournament.  It was a beautiful day so Jess, Tyler & I went anyway.  Mistake # 2 came when we got into the village of Waterford we noticed they were holding a 5K race. We drove down the street towards the bridge & parking area & found it was closed for the race.  We found a parking spot on the street & walked down.  Mistake # 3.....the race was just starting & they were running across the bridge & around part of the island
 Mistake # 4 we decided to walk across the road part of the bridge to stay out of their way
 That was a great idea until we got to the part that was a steel grid that the dogs couldn't walk on....h*ll we could hardly walk on it!  Jess said "no biggie I'll just carry Molly"....all 55lbs of her!  Crazy girl!!




 It was a perfect day for pics as the sky kept changing
 See the big fat fish?

 We've had no rain this year so the ducks are practically walking on the rocks

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 ...

Molly bike riding????

Popster has been teaching Molly to run along side of his bike.  It has been a slow process but she's finally getting it.  They start off very slowly.......  then speed up a little......  which is when she gets crazy& decides to "carry" the leash......  gradually she feels more comfortable....  then she begins to gallop.... & the ears start to flap!!!!!
