River Pictures

Finally. November is almost over and I get a chance to get back on the computer. (Laura is finished her 50K for NaNoWriMo already. She is supposed to be working on her term paper for class today, but instead she is making soup, so I get the computer!)

I want to show you some more pictures of the special place where Laura and I go hiking near our home. These are pictures from one of our fall trips there. (Once Laura is done her classes for this term, maybe we can go back and take some winter pictures.)

You all know how much my friend Laura loves the water. Well, look at where we can walk to, right from our home:

We can walk here from our home!


I like the river too, because it is a good place to have a drink. (Laura hikes very far, and that makes me thirsty!)

Good Place to Drink


In some places, the river isn't so quiet.

I can do this.

I can do this!


I am so brave!

I am so brave!


Hey! Don't laugh! That was a big stream for a little puppy like me to cross all by herself!

Crossing the Stream


You're still laughing, aren't you. I can hear you naysayers, betting that I won't do it, that I won't cross the big river...

Exploring the River


... well, I'll show you!

That's me in that picture. Me. Princess Kendal. Fording the rapids.

Come on in, Laura! The water's nice and cool and it tickles my feet!

Exploring the River


That was fun!

Once you are done playing in the water, you should shake really hard to get dry. If your human was too afraid to go in the water with you, be sure to stand really close to her when you shake. That way, she will at least be able to enjoy the river's watery goodness second hand.

Shake!


I think I'll lie here for a bit now and rest.

Bathroom Blessing

Here is another video from our new home Blessing Party.

Laura and my Mum and our friends Loretta and Tammy and my best friend Claire are all blessing the bathroom.



Now, if you are ever visiting us and you have occasion to use the bathroom, and you notice how great the energy is in there, you will know why!

Tee-Hee

Here is a funny video from the blessing party for Laura and my new home.

That little boy who is always coming around was at the party, and while he was here, he went poop in the toilet. Apparently, this is a big deal for humans. I'm not sure what the attraction is. Those toilet things look scary and not at all comfortable. Me, I prefer a nice piece of soft grass. Anyhow...

Using the toilet is, as I've said, a big deal for humans. This little boy was so proud of himself that he made John sing and dance to celebrate:
