Orange Positives

It's storm season.  No point in going into denial over it.  I've been in 4 tornado warnings so far this year, 2 of which while I was camping. Outside.  In a tent.

That was fun.

But while I can bitch and whine and complain all I want (and I can, because I said I can) there is one upside to these storms....

The beauty that follows is almost impossible.

Colorado Countdown

The countdown to the Colorado Canine Challenge has begun...


This glorious image, taken by me last CCC as I walked into the Colorado mountains to whoop some mountain disc golf butt.

Yeah, except those mountains and the disc golf actually kicked my ass, so that I was forced to spend the rest of the evening on the hotel patio drinking beer.  Mountain disc golf will do that to ya...

Leaving in... 20 days baby!

...And Again

Actually I did two things... again.  You'll notice that I got sick of my blog there for a while.  I kept changing it and I just wasn't happy.  So I abandoned it completely.  Totally and without remorse.  But then I started missing it.  And you.  So I got rid of all the color and I'm happy again!

Apparently I'm just not a colorful person.  Wonder what that means.

I also took on more dogs.  Again.  But not just any dogs. 

Aussie Dogs!
This is Pax.  He's a 5 month old black tri Aussie boy.  I love him. 

And Molly.
Molly is a 7 month old black tri female Aussie.  She's a lover, not a fighter.

And her brother Tommy


Tommy is Molly's brother, also 7 months old. He's a blue merle beauty!   Tommy broke his leg last week before he came to me.  He underwent emergency surgery to repair it.  He will now have to wear the cone and the cast for the next 9 days, as well as be on mandatory crate rest. 

Tommy is not a happy camper right now.  Not because he's in pain.  But because he is so Aussie that being crated and unable to move for so long is beginning to drive him insane. 

In other news, baby Lyric was adopted by a wonderful couple!
And his mama, Reese, will likely be adopted by her foster parents.  They have renamed her Betty and they just love her.  Crossing my paws that they keep her!  She's got a perfect life with them.  I mean, who wouldnt want to spend their weekends at a lake cabin? 

Anyways. I'm back. I missed my blog.  I can't abandon it.  I just love it too much.

Peace Out
Em
