There is a commentary that goes with these photos. To see it and to enlarge them all, click on the first photo. The arrow on the right of the photo will take you to the next photo. Have fun! Morrie and I want to share our afternoon with you. He’s narrating.
She enjoyed looking at the lawn Pasiano had just mowed that morning. I tried to help by nipping at his heels, but he got a bit testy, so I retired to my bed in the doggie domain.
She then saw Ganesha staring at her from across the way. He’s the patron of writers, which reminded her she had a book to read.
So she read a few lines before. . . .
In spite of Diego’s best efforts to win me away from Morrie, Morrie had the advantage of being small enough to lie in the hammock with me. Once he tried to jump up with us, which created a lot of excitement.
For once, although he is twice my size, I have the upper hand. I taunt him with my smile!
Once we are settled, mom gives up trying to read and we have another look around.
We see a little sprout growing from the tarred area where the men cut off the big limb when they cut back the pistachio tree.
Some of the foliage is starting to come back
One of the limbs had a little decoration hanging from it, so they left just enough of it to support the wire it was hanging from. Mom kind of had a laugh at that.
We could see the birds and butterflies still alighting in the tabachine tree.
A cardinal perched on the top of a cactus for such a short time that Mom couldn’t focus fast enough, so she didn’t get a very good shot.
Mom had a massage today and I saw him rubbing her feet.
But she didn’t get the hint.
So I settled back to take it easty.
Such great pics! A fun post! ❤️

Thanks, Patty. Glad someone is up as late as I am. 2:21 a.m. here. I didn’t expect anyone to see this until morning. Nice to have an immediate response.

There’s something so cute about those little paws. They look like fake paws on toy dogs. Morries’s got lighter eyes that either of my two but otherwise, he’s a clone. Rest and relaxation. Yup. They are very good at it. VERY good.

Half the time a human dynamo, the other half dead to the world in his cage or on a lawn chair. Morrie doesn’t do the ground.

Nice photos! I assume you took them, Morrie? 😂

Of course. These are Morrie selfies but I cover for him and say they are mine. He shuns the spotlight.

He is. With boundless energy half the time, asleep in his cage or in the hammock with me the other.

How sweet. I know all about boundless energy, we have two Border Collies! Although in this heat, they’re not quite as energetic as usual!

Hmm.. depends on if any two like to double up. And remember you need to occasionally fit in there as well.
