Excuuuuuse Me!

Granted - this is a lovely shot of 2 dogs I do not know....

And Central Park is basking in its autumn glory...

One problem...NEITHER DUE NOR I ARE IN THESE PHOTOS...

Blogger Rule #1

Take your camera everywhere. You never know when you will see me do something blog-worthy.

Blogger Rule #2

Make sure you charge the battery for above mentioned camera.

Seems Mom has mastered the first rule - not so much the second. We got to the Park this morning and as Mom was taking pictures of dogs we don't know - she realizes that her camera battery is dying...to make matters worse... these are the only pics for the day.

She missed out on all sorts of blogger gems like....

Coffee at a different cafe (apparently the caffeine need was so great we had to stop at the Conservatory Pond Boathouse (Model Boat Pond) for coffee before heading to the Loeb Boathouse for bacon and eggs. I'm just confused that there are 2 boathouses and they don't seem to be anything like each other.

She missed...Due covered with leaves...that stuck all over his coat...ME....ME and Due.....ME with a stick....ME running like the wind and spinning backwards...

okay maybe she needs video to do that one justice.

The point is she messed up and better get it together before the holidays.

Although I do really like that shot on the rocks...maybe next week Due and I can strike a pose there and make it our Christmas card...of course someone will have to charge the battery AND bring along some treats just for good measure...hmmmmm.

I hope you all enjoy your adventures this weekend.

Move over Johnny Depp

DUE

Sexiest Man Alive 2009

Seriously people, those deep chocolate eyes just knock my socks off!

Can You See Me Now?

Don't you just love rolling around in a big pile of leaves?

When we left Virginia for NYC I had to leave behind my own big yard complete with a beautiful maple tree. Mom gets a little sad at times and misses our yard - and the herb garden, not to mention rose garden, the peonies (her favorites) and hydrangeas...I have to remind her that Central Park has all that - and the best thing is - I get to roll in HUGE piles of leaves...and Mom doesn't have to rake any of them! There's always a silver lining - sometimes it just takes a golden girl to point it out. (I also have to remind her that the last hurricane - knocked over our Maple Tree - busted our fence...all on Thanksgiving night ....things us city girls don't have to worry about.

The other great thing about leaf diving...you get all mucky and wet - and then let the fur fly...

Follow me Due - I think I see a mud hole up ahead....

Ahhhhhh....pure joy!!!!

I hear Due had to get a bath when he got home....you know you've had a good time at the Park - if your peeps insist on rinsing you off ! Good Job Due!!!

I hope you all had your own great adventures...rain or shine!

CIRCLE OF FRIENDS AWARD

Thanks to SUGAR for our Circle of Friends Award.

As part of this award I am suppose to share 5 of my favorite things to do.

Here we go....

#5 Play tug-a-war with my leash - especially if Mom is of the

mistaken notion that our walk should be winding down and we should

be heading home

Not so fast Sister.....

#4 Help out my doormen with their Meet & Great duties

I prefer to do this sans t-shirt...

#3 Supervise the treat making..

(Mom's gotten some great recipes from SUGAR!)

I need to remain close by the baking at all times!

#2 WATER WATER...Please let me play in the WATER

Yep - per joy!

#1 A ROMP IN CENTRAL PARK WITH MY BEST PAL DUE

A full throttle romp that is...

Tied for #1 is keeping up with all of our fellow dog bloggers...Mom just didn't have a photo of me at her computer! Check out some of our friends blogs listed to the right.....

Just don't tell Due that I've fallen for that Yankee lovin' tri-paw - BEN!

HAPPY VETERANS' DAY

Thank you to all of our active duty servicemen & women and veterans.

ZOOM ZOOM

Ahhh....the perfect day for zooming....

Nurse Abbey On Duty...

We've been homebound for a few days as Mom's down with the flu. I'm doing my best nursing her back to health. I even left my newest stuffie toy - THE BEAV on her bed thinking that might help speed up her recovery. Hopefully she'll be back to her old self in time for a Sunday romp in the Park - Until then - enjoy your own adventures....

No - Mom is NOT dressing me up again. She's learned her lesson. We found this cute golden retriever nurse pic @ Land of Pure Gold. Check them out here.
