Who me?

Who me? Little Miss Innocent!

Getting close on a name...her personality is coming out.

If she were a he, he would be called Dracula...you should see the bite marks on my arms, ears, eyebrows. Yeah, I like to play with her, alot!

Tucker is starting to play also, which is good.

Damn, puppy teeth are sharp!

Chews everything, only occasionally her toys.

We are working on that and working on the peeing outside thing also. Getting better...what can you expect? She is a puppy, she is 9 weeks old. Reading a good book, "The Art of Raising a Puppy". Lots of training suggestions.

Oy...the heat

Thankfully it has cooled off a bit around here.

Check this out from Watsonville on Saturday!

Yowza, now that is hot...just could not drink enough water for that one.

Two races, no break, lots of time on the front of the first, cramped out with 8 to go on the second...bummer.

It's a Puppy!

Brothers and sisters,
the car ride home
and first nap in the new house

Already making herself comfy!

I think she'll grow into it.

Taking a little nap with Tucker...where do I get to sit?

Visitor

When out on the lawn,
I heard such a clatter,
I went to the window,
To see what was the matter.

I cranked open the pane,
And peeked through the screen,
Then grabbed my camera,
To record what I'd seen.

It was a deer in the ivy,
Having a snack,
A cute little buck,
I could hear his lips smack.

I snapped a quick picture,
He stood still in the night,
His eyes glowed yellow,
Like a deer in headlights!

Superweek!

Way to go Dean! That's some tough competition.

You've got bunny bars...you can't lose!

Oouuuuuuch!

Saw this on the way home yesterday...still there today.

Can't really figure how?

Didn't set parking break or put in park?
It should have rolled away before they even got out.

I guess that is why you curb your tires in the city?
Did you know you can get a ticket if you don't?

Am I the only one...

...that hasn't heard about this?

Coyote Creek Results!

Ron taking it to the line after 5 laps, 9 miles, solo off the front.

Yeah, even a blind squirrel finds a nut occasionally!

Cruisin'

Just a cool going to a race photo.

Standby for power blogging!

OK, not really, but it would be cool!


How many wings got clipped....

before they decided to lower all the stop signs?

Oy...what a week!

Short update, more later.

Didn't do a single race on a three race weekend, you know I was swamped.

Got the house all together. Really not many boxes left. Some in the garage but got the car in so not too bad.

Parents in town...wow did that ever help. I may have to send them on a vacation to pay them back for spending their vacation cleaning and pruning and moving and sprinklering.

7/4 party was fun. Small and cozy. Great "low country boil" and so easy to make....big thanks to Gebhardt for the cooker.

Got a renter for the condo.

Gotta run the rents to the airport...see you later...after a ride and a nap!
