#478 Dismal Attitude

Had A Good Day Today.

I finally took Cyrus & Lucille out to the desert for the first time. I got way out there, but not quite beyond the gun-nuts. (Had to listen to them shooting most of the day.) I found an empty ravine and let 'em loose. It was the first time in their lives they'd been off-lease outside of my home and/or back-yard.

They ran and ran! I was right, they really needed to stretch their legs.

Lucille found some petroglyphs.

After a day of rock-hounding I became very comfortable with letting them roam. They never got out of earshot, and they always came faithfully when I called.  I'm beyond ecstatic that this is the case. The "Come!" command is vital. They'd come up the side of the mountain and rest with me desert style. Ain't they beautiful?

And as a bonus, I came home with a nice load of ornamental stone that I'll be using on the wall I'm building out front.

Anyone Wanna See A Puppy Video?

My son's dog, Pheonix came to visit for the weekend.  He's the heavier beagle.

It's not great, but I couldn't think of anything else.
