My remaining dogs are all right, but a little dumb. Lobo used to "Get Ready" and crouch down with his head low, so where ever the ball went he could jump,run, or just catch it in place. We tell Oso who has played this game but only with his father around to "Get Ready", and he just says duhhhh Huh? He knows he wants to play ball, but he won't fetch the ball or bring it so we can play. BeBe just take her little bone shaped ball, and runs around the pool repeatedly. That's all she has ever done so we don't expect much from her. Without Lobo no one plays the Soccer ball game right anymore. I went over and tried to show Oso where he was supposed to get Ready but that didn't work at all. My husband just gives up in disgust with the two dim wits, but we persevere. Lobo was a natural, and extremely smart, we invented games together, and he knew to roll the ball by pushing it down the slope of the driveway and then I would kick it back up to him at the top of the driveway.We would do that repeatedly, plus he would push the ball to me in the pool, and then we would play volley ball. He wouldn't catch the ball, but volley it repeatedly to me from the deck. AHHHH the good old days, but I'm not that sad anymore, and I just miss him without the pain.
I look forward to finishing all these chickens, roosters, bunnies, etc. and doing some serious but really fun art like scenics. I look forward as always to seeing your pictures, and am glad you finally got some warm weather. Your cold weather came down here, and made it a chill 46 degrees. That's probably shirt sleeve weather to people who experience snow and freezing.
I liked your strange decrepit building with the streaky sky. It looked like something you could swim in, instead of birds flying in the sky. Keep experimenting, and sharing your worlds.
