Windy Busy Day

Truffie and LoganWe have had some day. I started out exercising then everyone got groomed first thing. I started walking 2 at a time and after I did a couple of those long walks Nathan joined me and walked 2 at a time as well.

Then we came back and played our hearts out in the back and clicked some photos. Here are a few photos from that experience. The dogs are exhausted. I am exhausted but it was a ton of fun!

Gidget is here and well Wasabi and her remember each other still. They are not playing hard but rather hanging out and enjoying investigating together. Gidget is busy flirting with the boys too. :-)

PS: If you look at the photos no one looks groomed but oh they were. It has been mighty windy today. We had leaves flying out of recycle bags up and down the streets. The dogs thought that was a tremendous amount of fun. Each return Nathan picked up the bags and tried to get them to not blow but each return a bag was strewn here and there. He was not happy.

That was crazy wind last night and today. I love to see the coats blowing in the wind.

Those are amazing pictures. I love them all and can't think of which one I like best as they are all so amazing. But I do like picture 55 which I believe is Jeannie? What a day it has been in terms of winds. I must admit that the Coop was a bit out of sorts this morning because of the sound of the winds and the noise of the generator coming on as we kept loosing power. He didn't play for a while and we left him alone so he coud just chilll. He is back to his old self now and did a number of "run like hell" circuits in hs yard. The Coop is back!

55 is Jeannie in bliss-filled gait

Interesting that he is bothered by the wind. Ours got upset when the wind blew our backdoor open. We need to fix the door - but we locked it and it was fine. They didn't like the wind venturing inside but they adored the wind in their hair on the walks and the leaves flying every which way. It was lawn pickup day and many bags emptied in the neighborhood.

Glad the Coop is back to normal. Is your generator noisy? Have a friend in Utah that has a huge one that powers her whole house - same for you?

I think one of my faves is 58 where Logan is laughing!

To be honest, I love all the pics of them playing in the wind :-) Normally Coop doesn't mind the wind. He should be used to it as it is often very windy "on top of the hill". But we had our bedroom windows slightly open during the night (I know, crazy but I can't sleep unless I have a window open) and it made the howling sound of the wind even more loud. We think we need a service call on the generator as normally it is not noisy (except outside) but it kept making a loud sound every 15 minutes. Each time, that got Coop a tad jumpy. Ours powers the whole house also. All is back to normal today with bright sunshine.

We look stormy so I am hoping to exercise soon, take dogs for a walk and then shower in a hot long one if I can get away with it. Thats my plan. Lets see if the rain comes and disturbs my plan or my body gives out. Its rather stiff and not wanting exercise at the moment.

I would get the generator looked at. All you need when you really need it for it not to work. :-( Then you will be like the rest of us having a fire and praying for warmth. hahahaha I always worry when we have pups about such things.
