Summer!

The rainy season ended with a bang...3 days and nights of solid rain caused in part by the outer rain bands of tropic storm Tomas which stalled just north of here.

Now the north winds, bajaraque and SSSSSUUUUUUNNNNNNNN!!!!!!

The rainy season didn't bother me...it wasn't too bad. But, I do love the sun!
It's Back...

I hiked the Pipeline Trail up high in Baja Mono. It was gorgeous! Sunny, cool and no wind today.

Yella took the new dog into the vet in David. She doesn't have distemper. She got her shots, re-stitched the opening for the neutering, got medicine that is supposed to stop the head bobbing. And we found out she is about 3 to 4 years old, much younger than she looks.

She has had a hard life. The good news is that she should regain all of her health from being fed and treated well. Great news! This is one sweet, affectionate, mellow dog. Just the opposite of our original dog, Emmy.

Now, if they would just get along.

Yella got her head caught in the electric gate this morning. Thank God the pressure shut off worked. After, of course, giving her a good jolt and a sore neck.

The dogs follow Yella out to the gate when she leaves. This means she has to close the gate while shooing the dogs to stay inside. Emmy got aggressive and made Yella reach back through the gate to push her to stay inside.

Only problem, her head was still inside the gate.

Walla, squished neck.

What more can happen with this damn gate? I am afraid to even think about it.

I'll get a photo today and post it. You can't make this stuff up. You would be accused of over hysterical drama.

I'm with Allan and Daniel on this one - Would Love to see the picture - especially if re-created with Yella. No, wait, on second thought, I think I am already dleighted with the picture I have in my imagination... TOO Funny! ...Now I see why Laura laughs so hard when I hurt myself doing odd things. In fact, she has gotten so used to it, that now, she just starts Laughing WHENEVER I get hurt... She kinda covers her mouth and says, "(Heh - heh - heh) Oh, did You hurt (heh - heh - heh) yourself, Honey (heh - heh - heh)?"
Love it! Darshan
