I just can’t help but picture Tiny Tim singing “Tiptoe Through the Tulips” when I look at this picture — Koda, on the other hand, takes these things far too seriously. Geez, can’t even take a joke…

Basking on the deck amongst my herbs and tomato pots,taking advantage of the sun`s brief appearance over the weekend.
Tuesday Dooze – Trouble

About 10 seconds after Koda scared the *^@% out of a Great Blue Heron who was waiting out low tide on one leg — until our little bugger precious darling snuck up from behind.
Howard, a great lover of birds, simply will not permit this kind of primitive behaviour.
Unfortunately, he can’t run fast enough to prevent it.

We may live on an island, but that doesn’t guarantee sandy beaches.
Not that we’re complaining — he’s content to turn over every rock on every beach in his perpetual hunt for crabs, while I focus my gaze on the rocky path ahead and absorb the silence between the calls of the birds and the waves against the shore.

Only to be replaced by cargo ship chasing — no more slow ambles along the shore for this family.

Caught myself a nice piece of tail over the weekend.
Tuesday Dooze – On the Deck

My constant companion…he chased bugs while I transplanted some broccoli and cauliflower seedlings — thoughtful spring gifts from our neighbour.
The seedlings went into pots on the deck. After several years of keeping a sizable kitchen garden, I’ve decided to throw in the towel.
