    More dogs and flowers

    I was going to mulch the gardens and plant pots today - but did nothing but hang around the house.  Here's some pictures.  It was finally a gorgeous day.
    You guys know how good i am with posting pictures  - and my wife, who i am waiting for, will probably be ready in the middle of my posting.  Here goes.
    The first is the yard with Chloe and Ollie.  The second Chloe chasing Ollie and the third is Ollie catching a ball.

    My wife told me a squirrel or chipmunk was pulling out the Impatiens - uh Huh.  The one after that would be a great avatar if Mags was looking my way.

    Next Chloe finally got the ball and is hiding under the bench - then a picture of Ollie.

    Silly man. There's never too many Mags, Ollie, Chloe and Yankee Yard photos. The yard, as always, is just stunning. The dogs complement it well. [:D]

    I wonder how many people will notice that your tree has a face.

    Do your corgis ever jump in the pool? I knew someone with a pembroke who would jump in the pool about every 5 minutes and just swim to the other side and get out. I also knew someone with a cardigan who liked to swim in the lake...

    Yanke - your yard is gorgeous, and it makes my heart ache for home.  If I remember correctly, you live in Connecticut, right?  Anywhere near Farmington, by chance?  Your house and yard look like so many in my hometown (I wasn't lucky enough to live in one - we lived in apartments - but I spent many a day and night in yards like yours with friends, and I still do when I go home for a visit). 
     
    I just want to lie in your grass and read a book, or take a dip in that pool!  How do you get anything productive done with such an inviting yard to "waste time" in???

    Your yard is gorgeous!!  You should come make mine look nice!  LOL  Mine is a jungle with a small section fenced off for the dogs...I would someday love to fence off the whole thing and let them run wild!  Your dogs look like they had so much fun!

    Yankee!  I haven't been here in forever, and found you were falling apart, (had to forward that to Claire) and now the beautiful pictures of your yard! (I'm jealous of the pool)  I've missed you!

    Your yard is BEAUTIFUL!! I call my husband the "Lawn Dr" because he is so great with the yard and flowers, but you put him to shame! I think that Chloe has a green paw, and is just helping you out with the impatiens! Marley went to the same school, and has helped by digging a hole under the chokecherry bushes, and worked over the wildflowers.
     
    Gorgeous dogs and beautiful yard! Lucky you!

    Thanks all for the nice comments.
    Marlania - if you look real close the tree has legs too.  Sorta looks like a cowboy.
    RidgebackGS - No - we don't let them in.  We're afraid they'd be wet everytime we let them out (it's the letting them back in the house wet that worried us though).
    Tacran - Yes, we're in Ct - but 10 miles east of Hartford.  I sit on the screened porch for breakfast and reading - usually while my wife's out in the sun.
    Nancy - So good to hear from you!!  I've thought of you often.  I hope all is well with your husband and family.
    My2saints - Ifound two holes today in the midddle of the yard -CHloe!  We may have to get rid of her (there's supposed to be a smiley face with a wink here).
