XMAS DAY BEACH WALK


Seriously!
We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day weather-wise.
It felt like spring had arrived and winter was just a sweet memory.
I even went in for a swim.


 Mr. Orangie was in rare form,
so I figured that he needed reigning in / taming down
so I was super focused in rescue mode!


Daddy Jim was sporting his new down Arcteryx hoodie jacket
which he says will definitely take care of the Jan/Feb/Mar cold wind and snows.
After last winter's onslaught (the worst in recent memory)
I heard him mumbling "....just bring it on Old Man Winter, now just bring it on!!"


I ran into mucho furry friends like these 2 Leonbergers and a mini-poodle.
Oh yes, super friendly for sure.


 Lookee here!
Our tails match, not planned in the least.



Very short video (less than one minute) will show you how great a day we had.


Even this Queen of Hearts was holding court high on the rocks!


Come back again soon,
since the New Year 2016
is looming on the horizon!

CHEERS!!

BRIEF REPREIVE


High on the hill 
(my favourite spot in the whole Doodle World)
I search for the never-ending answer.
To what?
You may ask.


Well, solitude for one thing
a singular moment in time.
Peace for all of you and the world
yes the entire world.


The snows are beginning to paint out landscape.
You can see my cherry tree buoying the soft white flakes
so precariously yet firmly.
These singular flakes come together
making a strong union
of beauty and strength.
We are like the snowflakes ~~~

PLEASE MAY I 'AVE SOME MORE!!


1st snow has covered our world! 
On my deck 
where breakfast and supper
is served to HRD 
(Her Royal Doodle)



the wide open spaces
fresh air
and 
a dish full of my 
FULL MEAL DEAL
seems to illicit
this response




"Please may I 'ave some more"
with sweet apologies to
Oliver from Charles Dickens.

"FEELGOOD DAY"


It's Sunday morning
SPRINGLIKE 
and 
I have just dropped Daddy Jim off at his shop.
The beach is over the hill,
so
Daddy Ron and I decided a trek along the shore 
would start the day off perfectly.


I was stopped in my tracks immediately
because I saw a person sitting on the rocks.
~ in my DOODLEHEAD ~
"people mean treats"
As I approached the figure ~~~


Not fair!
I realized that I was totally wrong,
maybe it was the mirage effect
or
DOODLETREATSFOREVEREFFECT
that came over me,
so I moseyed on ~~~


looking for Mr. Orangie 
Do you see him?
I don't!


Again, Mr. Orangie just blends in.
Maybe a good inhale of this seaweed will
improve my GPS skills!


Maybe not!


If you see him in this picture then you have better eyes than me.


I saw these hearts on the beach
and
felt pretty good all over.


We galloped back home for a break  
and then ~~


 returned around 4:30 
to pick up Daddy Jim.


This fellow was just hanging around
gliding on the currents
up and down
the hillside.


He saw me 
because he waved.
I flipped my tail at him
and
he slipped up the slope again.


 The sun had almost disappeared on the horizon
signifying that another day had come and gone.


This was quite a special day
nothing extraordinary
just a 
"feelgood day"!
~~
I hope your day was a 
"feelgood day" 
too
~
Hey!
if it wasn't then re-read this post
and
maybe you'll feel a bit better.

NAMASTE!!!
