Sometimes she brings a bone to chew with her. <br />

Sometimes she neatly tucks her front feet under her (but leaves her tongue hanging out!) <br />

Sometimes, Glenn leaves his pager (I know! I know! WHO still uses pagers??) attached to his belt and its buzzing startles Pumpkin. (And me!)<br />

For whatever reason, Glenn usually leaves his shirt on the side of the tub just outside the shower. But sometimes he drops it on the floor with the jeans and then Pumpkin seems to feels obligated to position herself so she is touching both the jeans and the shirt. <br />

Usually, there isn't enough room for Pumpkin's whole body to rest on clothes. I wonder if her rear end gets cold?<br />

Portland, Maine to visit Darby's mother, Bryn, and her family. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1C_MkNn0UKMPlx9C9q0d069h-x9RbYwm4Y2An5ExI1KLuTV9W894Ao-Hl6WcwCBmJH3eBRH84wNxIMldnAbHvJ4XWtewxu9F05NzGEixEic1SnA37SOOlWYyxsfdyIf6ETIIBuCSmLvo/s1600/IMG_4053.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1C_MkNn0UKMPlx9C9q0d069h-x9RbYwm4Y2An5ExI1KLuTV9W894Ao-Hl6WcwCBmJH3eBRH84wNxIMldnAbHvJ4XWtewxu9F05NzGEixEic1SnA37SOOlWYyxsfdyIf6ETIIBuCSmLvo/s640/IMG_4053.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>

Other
people's vacation photos can often be somewhat boring -- especially if the
person spends five minutes on each photo relating fond memories of people you don't know!<br />
<br />
So, I'll spare you the narration and just share the photos!<br />

HIATUS</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So, I guess I took one. A hiatus, that is, from blogging. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Taryn emailed me this morning and asked if everything was OK. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Everything is OK. Or almost OK.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I seem to have lost my blogging mojo. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have a new work schedule -- working shorter days which gets me home earlier and instead of blogging and reading blogs, I've been cooking and gardening and reading books about <a href="http://takingtothecountry.blogspot.com/">moving to the country</a> and chickens and goats and growing clean food. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm still taking photos, but few of them have been of the dogs and the others haven't inspired me to put them up here on the blog and talk about them. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But, here I am now, so I'll show (and tell) you a bit of what I've been doing for the last two weeks.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I've been the site of more than one competition between Harry and Darby for lap privileges. </div>

I've been charmed by the sweet Pumpkin-girl's habit of curling up in Glenn's previous day's laundry every morning. (I considered doing a photo every day for a week but kept forgetting to bring my camera upstairs.) <br />

I've been eating nothing but homemade granola. No store bought cereal. MUCH cheaper and MUCH tastier. It's time to make more. <br />

I've been thankful that this very close brush fire burned away from us rather than toward us. Fire season almost never goes away here in very southern, Southern California, but the really serious season -- hot days with single-digit humidity and strong winds -- is upon us now and will be until the rains start (if they do) in November. <br />

So, there's a little of my past two weeks. Precious little about the namesakes of this blog!<br />
<br />
I'm not ready to call this blogging thing quits yet, but I've given up trying to keep up with the "daily" aspect of Darby's and Pumpkin's Daily! <br />
<br />
See you around next time I have something fun to share! <br />

The lengthening shadows and shortening days promise that fall and winter, my favorite seasons, are on the way. Here in very southern Southern California, late Summer and early Fall are typically
the very hottest time of year and this year, so far, is no exception. But, I still love this month. It always feels like a new beginning to me. Here are some views of September so far.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">A lethal weapon. Back in June, I bought a finial very much like this one in a little antique store in rural Virginia. It never occurred to me that the TSA in Richmond, VA would consider it a lethal weapon and confiscate it. I burst into tears when they took it away from me. Of course, I had the option of going back to the ticket counter and arranging for it to be mailed to me, but even though we had an hour before our flight was to leave, I was too nervous about the long security lines to take the chance of missing our flight. When I visited Erika last month, we went back to the shop and bought this one and I checked my bag this time. </td></tr>

If all goes well with our plans to move to Virginia in two years, Bailey and Pumpkin will meet each other again when they are about 5 years old. It will be fun to see if they remember each other and if they still like to play rough and tumble like they did when they were pups.

After nearly two weeks away from home, I flew back to San Diego on Sunday morning. It was hard to leave Erika and her crew (husband, two dogs, 16 baby chickens, and an unknown number of black rat snakes) but it is so good to be home with my crew (husband, one cat, two dogs and no known snakes.) Here are some photos of here and there. Or rather, there and here. <br />

Moving to a neglected farm and a partially-renovated 133 year old farm house isn't enough for her. She just had to have chickens so she can have eggs next spring. Lots of eggs. 5 chickens from each of three breeds PLUS a bonus rare or heirloom chicken who in her case turned out to be a Transylvanian Naked Neck or "Turken." He -- or she -- is my favorite! <div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBjS3m-sUyQRmWhuJxx572UznhUiFSg0cohEVl63N9Ll91_5af3EuM2neDxjGNagy8R2mBl1hVzgjqa0mPQ8cEjgi8Aox-Na5_zDv0T3NOaZi5Calvwk11g8BzN3pNGednwHAxsiKl0SE/s640/blogger-image--218245860.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBjS3m-sUyQRmWhuJxx572UznhUiFSg0cohEVl63N9Ll91_5af3EuM2neDxjGNagy8R2mBl1hVzgjqa0mPQ8cEjgi8Aox-Na5_zDv0T3NOaZi5Calvwk11g8BzN3pNGednwHAxsiKl0SE/s640/blogger-image--218245860.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheFkW02r1mRc5BlFI3H_LdSUS4lV5f5HsxMvX41idGyXyPCfTS88h7tnn7F9sPVYQkTCJntakrM1TbfHvSlAO6hQdkUpIJmgrVCjfnsX_VTvq9i0uGSzdcjpFQRnhX419ytI53-SSJUJM/s640/blogger-image--1427966898.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheFkW02r1mRc5BlFI3H_LdSUS4lV5f5HsxMvX41idGyXyPCfTS88h7tnn7F9sPVYQkTCJntakrM1TbfHvSlAO6hQdkUpIJmgrVCjfnsX_VTvq9i0uGSzdcjpFQRnhX419ytI53-SSJUJM/s640/blogger-image--1427966898.jpg"></a></div><div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVEMgXkHU2CfSV4tNkB6LksPMoSKWmOHJKKVLEeVajSXLHA1rb4qsjUMSLwd2Ja_PSLZ44rpCHc_Qpt2Em0sAR9dK7xa1ktHsQIGMj43wtackeNJ141XJnTEVGqQh-KEHurySQoDXRNx8/s640/blogger-image--2023704546.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVEMgXkHU2CfSV4tNkB6LksPMoSKWmOHJKKVLEeVajSXLHA1rb4qsjUMSLwd2Ja_PSLZ44rpCHc_Qpt2Em0sAR9dK7xa1ktHsQIGMj43wtackeNJ141XJnTEVGqQh-KEHurySQoDXRNx8/s640/blogger-image--2023704546.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjolBoOYHsTgm-41TyVh0l1UJVBpxIV7n5FlVg884NuHcsNKBbZbF0cbXItuzYfcID_oPtlxHGZSuatGxvCVbL3mJUso9W5ikO_zdj3WRaSd-T8HlpQIgimBvq0ho8C0-82QvwiiBEj2mQ/s640/blogger-image--961237138.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjolBoOYHsTgm-41TyVh0l1UJVBpxIV7n5FlVg884NuHcsNKBbZbF0cbXItuzYfcID_oPtlxHGZSuatGxvCVbL3mJUso9W5ikO_zdj3WRaSd-T8HlpQIgimBvq0ho8C0-82QvwiiBEj2mQ/s640/blogger-image--961237138.jpg"></a></span><div class="separator" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; clear: both; "><span style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjolBoOYHsTgm-41TyVh0l1UJVBpxIV7n5FlVg884NuHcsNKBbZbF0cbXItuzYfcID_oPtlxHGZSuatGxvCVbL3mJUso9W5ikO_zdj3WRaSd-T8HlpQIgimBvq0ho8C0-82QvwiiBEj2mQ/s640/blogger-image--961237138.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZWCpHm0VyCx1rwwuaaD6WnsLdN1UwBAXFz8qsxz1m2JV_NatB-VWHXJ8G5IwFF0RwpGN_XFNZwpeGBNRxAPzmBIXmcWkR4FYwSgyb1n1WYKtHILV-4cBoHlwYhLFNHQ5O0RjAJeVJTfA/s640/blogger-image--1124925847.jpg"></a></span></div><div class="separator" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; clear: both; ">Bonnie can't get enough of the chicks!</div></div></div>Boo21's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17825239123419683907noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1398096813313079796.post-42298677060544402162013-08-28T02:44:00.001-07:002013-08-28T02:44:35.755-07:00One Word Wednesday <span style="font-size: large;">GENTLE </span> <br />

Erika drove up on Friday afternoon and went to the conference awards dinner with me. She spent the night, then after we had breakfast at the PAUL Bakery on Pennsylvania Ave. (a US branch of the restaurant where she and I had breakfast every morning of the week we spent in Paris several years ago) she drove me home to her new house outside Remington, Va.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
She, Christian, Glenn and I bought 27 acres of rural property where Erika and Christian are now living (in a mostly-remodeled 133 year old farmhouse) and where Glenn and I will build our retirement home. The property needs a ton of work--Christian already bought a tractor and is using a "bush hog" implement to begin taming the former pastures--and there is a ton more work to do. But, we have all the time in the world to get things done.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For now, they are --and for this week I am -- enjoying being out in the country watching beautiful sunsets, watching out for black rat snakes and checking ourselves for ticks!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Bonnie and Bailey, sporting super-dooper anti-tick collars are totally enjoying their new home and not thinking for a moment about black rat snakes! </div>

They're as sweet as can be,<br />
Not even tall as my knee.<br />
But big hearts make up what their legs lack!<br />

My camera has been on leave, too. I just haven't felt inspired to take many photos, and when I do, I can't think of anything clever to say about them. This is not good for a blog! I'm hoping my blogger's-block goes away soon, but until then, here are just a few shots of the past few days.<br />

Once when I realized (I'm a slow learner) that it wasn't turning out with the clearly defined stripes the pattern showed. A second time when I followed the directions correctly and the stripes were clearly defined but I didn't like the look of the stripes or the feel of the fabric. <br />
<br />
And, a third time when I went back to my original mistake and I love the look and the feel of it. <br />

Glenn couldn't believe that I ripped out all that work -- twice! No one in my family and few of my friends would describe me as a patient person. <br />
