Watching the Game

Watching the game

Here’s the guys curled up on the sofa watching the Sunday football games on TV. Bob will sit on the sofa and Bay Bay will curl up next to him. I got a blanket to cover up the little dog as they both relax and enjoy the game. Until the next time to go for a walk, that is. Click on the image to enlarge.

Christmas Squirrel

Squirrel

This morning while hanging the bird feeders, this little antelope ground squirrel hopped up on a branch and commenced begging for a handout. This frequently happens in our back yard. Of course, I tossed some birdseed his way. Click on the image to enlarge.

Snug in a Blankie

Now that the weather is getting a little cooler, I like to curl up in a blankie that the Mama puts in the dryer to heat it up. She took this picture of me in one of the blankies all nice and warm. Click on me to make me big.

Wickenburg Christmas Hat Decorations

Wickenburg Christmas HatBob and I were shopping in the old downtown area yesterday. Across from one of the shops on Tegner, I noticed the town had put up some Christmas decorations on the street lights. On the top of the light fixture, there was a cowboy hat reminiscent of that worn by the town’s founder, Henry Wickenburg.

That’s one of the things we love about our town. It, and the townspeople, have character. I remember seeing the hats from last year, but they are a relatively new item in front of the courthouse where the bust of Henry (inset in the photo) has been placed.

Since we’re not going away this year, we’re looking forward to spending the Christmas Holidays here in tow, enjoying the character of our town.

Naptime

Naptime

The Mama and the Daddy had turkey weekend. Bay Bay and I ate so much that all we felt like doing was to take a nap. I like napping on the love seat by the window. Click me to make me big.
