It’s getting almost past time that the pasture should be cut. Another windy thunderstorm and the waist-high grasses will lodge over and be lost to mowing for hay. We’ll hope the neighbor has time to get to it this week.
Ann, as usual, has kept the walking path around the pasture edges open, lawn-mowing a green channel into tall grass not unlike the white tunnels we used to create when we shoveled a heavy snow off the walkways.
The dog, in his usual warm-weather fashion, stopped by the “swirley pool” and zipped past us as we returned on our walk yesterday. I had Ann call the dog back towards us, knowing that this time, he’d have to come right toward me down the grassy corridor of the path. All I had to do was be ready for him.
You can see the creek water spraying off of Tsuga The Creek-Streaker here, and get a sense of his wild jubilation that happens every time he gets wet and cool from a dip in Nameless Creek! Heck I might just try that myself someday soon. (Click for larger image.)
Stumble it!

Incredible shot, Fred. I love just how sharp Tsuga looks against the soft focus background.

I love his exuberance and that “lab” spirit! What a good dog!

Oh how I wish my 4 year old dog had not injured a lumbar disc and could still run like that! Treasure the years of dog youth!
