Fall is blowing in on a cool crisp breeze and we love it!
I so enjoy laying out here on the deck feeling the breeze ruffle my fur...
With the temperatures dropping it makes an air conditioned house take second place to a deck...
This week our back yard neighbors have had men on their roof...
this upset Thibby quite a bit..
I however, being a little seasoned, have seen this type of thing before...
I remember when those men were all over the roof of
the Mam-maw and Pap-paw Ryan's house..
I was left to keep an eye on them while Boudreaux ran and got our Momma !
She had explained that "that's o.k." and told us what good puppies we were for watching over them too...
We still stayed right there by our fence and kept a close eye on them!
So we have kept an eye open here as well...
Me from the deck and Thibby mostly from the yard.
He does get a little side tracked now and then.
As he runs across the yard he will pass over a couple of his favorite dirt holes...
In the last couple of days we have had several inches of rain...
giving the dirt a better holding power...
Now...I, myself have never really cared much for a dirt bath but, I over heard Thibby explaining to Momma that it was
South Carolina Camo
and
by using this he would be able to do a better job
of guarding us from any suddenly squirrel-y roofers
that might want to scale the fence and try attacking our roof!
So he will travel a path from the back fence... looking up at them on that roof... through a waller hole.. to another waller hole ..and then to look at our roof...
(can't be to careful.. they might be real sneaky like that blame New Hampshire
Great Blue Heron )
Then back around again...
As for me...
Well I will lay up here
and enjoy the breeze...
if the boy needs me
he will send up a signal bark
and this princess can be next to him in seconds.
But, mostly he is enjoying his day and his dirt.
Until next time may your fur feel a cool autumn breeze...
and for those of you that are so inclined may you find a good dirt hole for wallering.
Chloe & Thibby
