Beautiful, glorious autumn!!

This is a look at one of the dog parks we sometimes go to for a change. Little Mountain Park, Winnipeg, Manitoba. Winnipeg has the largest urban forest in north America. It is a beautiful city, most streets are tree lined (both sides) so it seems that you are driving through green tunnels. There are acres of park grounds and in our case, thank goodness, acres of dog park grounds!

Mandala

Add caption

My first attempt at a mandala. Everything means something, a little from all the directions, north, south, east and west. Seems a little busy and messy, I guess it is a reflection of inner self.

I was blessed to grow up here. This was pretty much my back yard.

10 hours in the car with 2 great dogs

You know I love those dogs, but driving to my dad's with them was a bit much. Lucy, the neurotic border collie, actually had to drive all the way with her head out my window. What a windblown look after 100 kms an hour. Now they can say they swam in Lake Superior! At least they got their toes wet.

reach the beach puppies

I wanted them to love the water so much, but I'm not so sure that border collies are that big on the water, although Fixit does seem to like it. It was too bad he kept trying to dunk her when we were trying to encourage her to swim.........

Learn Something New Everyday

I have recently been researching mandalas, and trying to make one. The mandala is a journey to finding your spirit.....a journey in and out.  I have also read that it is good art therapy, and goodness only knows a little therapy wouldn't hurt. I will post pictures of my progress, but until then here's a picture of some of my gardening, which has been sadly neglected.                                                   

Just kidding,

Here's another one
