Chi Chi and the greats

Can you believe it is the last weekend of August? While Calgary had severe flooding in June we have actually had a great summer. The lawn and flowers haven't loved the heat nor has sleeping been comfortable with the humidity. But here we are with a bright sunshine filled morning which hides the storm of last night.

Joy had me do a Tim's run this am and I didn't realize how strong that cell was that rolled through at 6 pm. A few of the big trees in the 'hood are down and covering our community. Now why couldn't the big poplar tree on the boulevard (the one that covers Sadie in saplings) been one of the victims?

Saturday looks like a terrific day for a trot so let's go back to the 'default' location of Eau Claire market and enjoy a scoot around the downtown. See you at 8 am. Thanks to the Makaroff's and Peter who followed the default rule! Too bad Joy and John didn't!

So an argue err discussion ensued between Joy and me on the cause of our little Sadie starting to Snorfle this week. What is snorfling you ask? Our dog walker describes it as:

Snorfling is a combination of snorting and sniffling and is generally caused by little beasties in the nosal area, usual as a result of sticking one's nose where it doesn't belong. 

(definition from Darlene's Dictionary)

 

This might be a description that explains the angle of MY nose!

Does this look like a dog in distress?

More to come but off to watch a bunch of old guys hit balls with Dave. Will we see Chi Chi?

 

They don't make them like this anymore...
