I give up, Rosey

I'll post something, too. I tend to just lurk in the background and know I should be more visible, but....... Does anyone else have a problem with posting replies? For some reason, there is some extra step now that I'm apparently unable to negotiate. So for now, I'll just do new posts.

Our life recently has been fairly occupied with a new puppy. His name is Murphy. He's half black Lab and half Chesapeake. When we got him three months ago, he looked like this.


Now he looks like this, and he's only six months old.




Our older dog, Gus, has taken him under his wing and they've become best buddies, even though Gus had a real aversion to puppies prior to Murphy coming to live with us.


The flamingos on the lawn are part of a fundraising project that our high school cheerleaders do every year. They plant the flamingos and then for a donation, you can choose the person you want to receive them next. They try to put them in place in the evening so that it's a morning surprise for the person who has been "flocked".


Our other news is that DH retired at the beginning of June. He's been in education for almost 40 years (the last 10 as a high school principal), so this is going to be quite an adjustment for him, and for me. He's planning to do a good deal of fishing and we will travel as well.


Now you are up to date on me.

Kathi,
Love your four legged babies. My Kasey is beginning to show her age like Gus. She will be 10 next month. Lost Millie two years ago, have a co-owner relationship with a breeder and have a beautiful Golden girl, who is now visiting her boyfriend. Daughter is still in Moscow, ID. Have two grands we don't get to see. Good to hear from you. Martha in sticky, muggy Maine
