Snow Removal: Big Dog Supervises

Hey Snow Lovers!  Yours truly, Big Dog, sporting my special blue snowcap, will supervise my pal Marcus in his snow removal activities.                                                     
 Let's go fetch the big red snow machine....right this way!

 This little shed is the home of the big red snow machine, and by the way, my favorite hideaway.

 I have inspected this machine, and it's ready to go!

 Come on , Marcus, fire this baby up!

 Hey Big Dog, how am I doing?

 Check out these moves!

Hey Marcus, don't remove that mailbox!

 Hug that corner......Brruuummmmmm!!!

 "Excuse me, Big Dog", says my pal Marcus. "Can we have a milk and cookie break?

Oops!  That was a long break. Glad Marcus can see in the twilight. Night falls early here during the Maine winter.  More very soon, Peace & Love & Hugs  BIG DOG!!

Laundry Day

As you may or may know I live in a swell house in Maine with my pal Marcus, the singer guy, and Miss Mary, the artist girl. Since they are people they have to wear clothes, and then they wash them once a week.  Yikes!  On top of that Miss Mary likes to hang them outside to dry as she is very green, thrifty, and also likes that fresh Maine breeze smell in the clothes. When Miss Mary is not around Marcus puts them in the electric dryer. Don't tell Miss Mary!





The other day I caught her in action. Hmmmm... those sheets are going to smell nice. I admire those who like nice smells. I live to smell!
It is important to balance the sheets just so.
Wooden gadgets called "clothes pins" hold the sheets on the "clothes line"
The clothes line starts to fill on this bright January day.
Moderate stretching is required to handle these sheets. Yet another benefit of "hanging out the clothes."
Looks like fun too!
Fine looking laundry catching the brisk winter breeze.
The sharp winter sun  illuminates the plaid of Miss Mary's homemade napkins. I will be writing more very soon on the habits of these funny people I live with up here in Maine.    Love & Hugs, Big Dog
