P3080074 * Monday. Poppy and I were curious how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop. Poppy put one in a vise, and let Lilly go. She cheated. About two min. in, she started biting it. * 2048 x 1536 * (579KB)

P3080076 * See? Do not worry, this is the only time she has had one, and likely her last, since these are not really good for dogs. * 2048 x 1536 * (669KB)

P3080078 * She likes pretty much any food. * 2048 x 1536 * (471KB)

P3080079 * 2048 x 1536 * (479KB)

P3080083 * She also knows which expressions work best when she is begging for more food. * 2048 x 1536 * (452KB)

P3080084 * She is smiling. * 2048 x 1536 * (566KB)

P3080087 * Now she just wants more food. * 2048 x 1536 * (565KB)

P3080090 * Anyway, we did do work. Poppy has a big pile of wood chips. We used the backhoe to turn the pile over so the chips on the bottom can dry out. On Wednesday, the plan is to put some of these chips in the garden, to act as mulch. * 2048 x 1536 * (566KB)

P3080091 * 2048 x 1536 * (573KB)

P3080092 * The garden is right next to that brown Christmas tree. Poppy thinks it needs mulch. * 2048 x 1536 * (558KB)

P3080095 * We also worked over here. It is hard to see now, but there was an old metal swing set, that was rusted and broken. Poppy and I dismantled that, and set the metal off to the side. In the spring, Poppy wants to take it to a recycling facility. * 2048 x 1536 * (578KB)

P3080096 * There are a lot of vines on that tree. We cut most of them down since they were unhealthy for the tree. * 2048 x 1536 * (567KB)

P3110125 * Grace still sits like a person. * 2048 x 1536 * (609KB)

P3110126 * I think it is so cute how her back legs do not even reach the end of the couch cushion. * 2048 x 1536 * (561KB)

P3100103 * Wednesday. Lilly wants food. * 2048 x 1536 * (453KB)

P3100104 * She tried barking at me. * 2048 x 1536 * (468KB)

P3100105 * She tried frowning at me. * 2048 x 1536 * (448KB)

P3100108 * She also tried ignoring me. All of the above are quite effective at getting her food. * 2048 x 1536 * (624KB)

P3100109 * Time to move some wood chips. I realized that Poppy wanted to turn the pile over because the chips on bottom were more mulch like. * 2048 x 1536 * (640KB)

P3100111 * Poppy drove the backhoe, and filled that trailer. I then used the John Deere to take the trailer to the garden, and dump the mulch. We repeated this process eight times. * 2048 x 1536 * (617KB)

P3100112 * There. That looks good. * 2048 x 1536 * (644KB)

P3100115 * I brought my BB gun, and we shot balloons for the rest of the day. Ellie has never shot anything before, so she shot also. * 2048 x 1536 * (787KB)

P3100117 * There is an orange balloon on that cement mixer. That is about 50 feet from the deck. That trailer is about 120 feet from the deck, and it has that pink balloon on top of the gate. * 2048 x 1536 * (621KB)

P31001192 * That orange balloon that is circled in green is about 250 feet away. * 2048 x 1536 * (1.51MB)
