Summer Time

No not the candy that Farmor loves from See's Candy but the warm weather summer we all love. You may ask what is it that I like to do other than swim, play music on the computer and exercise my DVD collection. Well as you might be able to ascertain from the picture I like making bubbles with the help of my friend Ricki.
I do other things too I get to spray the dogs with the hose and the dogs and I love to watch the pool sweep at work. It goes up and down the walls and bottom of the pool. It's tail swishes back and forth and sometimes it pops through the surface of the water and sprays us. This gets the dogs going and I laugh and laugh as we chase it back and forth around the pool.
Next time I may even tell you about Blue's Clues my new favorite T.V. program...... Little "G"

New Blog

Hi everyone I just wanted to share the location of my Farfar's new blog. He will be sharing his experiences with his new compact camera a Leica D-Lux4.
If you are at all interested in photography or just looking to purchase a good high quality compact camera. One that actually takes high quality images and HD video then you may be interested in his blog.
Today's picture was taken with the Leica and even if I may say so turned out nicely. Farmor says that the model had a lot to do with the quality of the picture. As usual click on the pic to see a larger view...... Little "G"

More Blue Jays

For those of you that enjoyed seeing the Blue Jays that nested outside our kitchen window here is a video from a friend in Canada. He and his family had a similar experience to ours and he has put together a very professional video on their activities. Enjoy....... Little "G"

Eat Your Heart Out

While you where or are slaving at work I'm lounging and playing on this nice late spring day. Now to your immediate right you will see a clue on how one looks when they are staying cool. It is good that Farfar has a camera that he can stick under water to get these shoots.
It is nice and warm today both outside and in the water I checked the thermometer and it read 80 degrees not in the hot tub but in the pool. The hot tub was a toasty 92 degrees.
Farfar and I took turns jumping into the pool and swimming back and forth. No I'm not able to swim yet, but I can hang onto Farfar and kick not bad I would say. Here are some pictures to just rub it in a little.


Just relaxing while you are tolling away at work!

Steeping into the pool.

Getting ready to jump in!

Lots of splashing cools one off.

Santa Cruz

Today it was Santa Cruz I went to visit Farmor's grand nieces Saga and Elsa and their mother and father Jennie and Mike. Oh I can't forget their dog D.J. who was very excited to have someone else to play with.
It was a beautiful day for a adventure, after a snack and a short visit we packed up the twins into their stroller and headed for the beach. We stopped at a park where I played on the climbing apparatus, rode the spring horse and used the digger shovel to dig some sand. They had a neat garden attached to the playground and while exploring that I found a huge garter snake. When it saw me coming for it he took off and hid under some cover.
Then it was off to the beach to watch the surfers and explore the bigger park where I climbed and walked on huge logs, what fun.
On the way home we stopped at Mac Donalds and I had a happy meal. Then of course it was time to go swimming with Farfar and then a nap. It has been a very fulfilling day..... Little "G"
Pictures from the adventure!

There by the fence that was the snake I found.

I'm climbing on the logs and looking out towards the beach.

1 Week Off

Yes that is right I have one week off from school and I'm trying to make the best of it. Mom and dad took me and Saxon to the zoo this last weekend and we had a great time. Anyway today it is back to Farmor and Farfar's house for all day fun. Well at least that is how I see it. You would have to ask them how they feel. Yes I know they would say tired I was in my jet propelled mode today.
Here are just the highlights, go on the computer, exercise the dvd player, take the dogs for their walk, go to the pet store and into the pool. Yes Farfar is pooped out, I wonder why? Anyway pictures tell a lot so here are a few from today's walk.


Here I am exercising on the par course.
Yes that is a big rock that I found can you guess what I'm going to do with it ?

I get the pleasure of feeding my horse buddies on Alpine and Willowbrook.


Two new dogs in the neighborhood for me to visit.

Blue Jay Family

Over the past six or seven weeks I have been watching a family of Blue Jays. I have seen them build their nest, lay their eggs and raise their baby birds. They are gone now off into the big beautiful and sometimes scary world. Good luck to the babies I hope to see them again - Here is a short video of their story....... Little "G"
