Brian took the van to Arkansas last weekend! He was parked next to the twin of our van. Lots of mountain biking and exploring. He had a great time.
Snuggle bug.
Saturday we celebrated our nephew-in-law's (is that a thing?) 30th birthday. It was a surprise, and honestly, I'm not sure how our niece even pulled this off considering they have 5-month old twins.
It was fun getting to meet Patryck's friends and clients (he's a personal trainer). Honestly, such a great guy.
This white moth was hanging out on my car so I had to move it. Not a fan of moths, but this sure is pretty.
I took Boss out on a field trip Monday. She's shy, timid and very sweet. Unfortunately, I noticed some coughing on the way back and it turns out a triage note had already been submitted while I had her out for a URI. Poor girl is on some medicine and be available for adoption again soon. For now, she can only be fostered. Such a cutie.
Gretel appreciation photo. Honestly, she's doing well for her age, and we are just so lucky. Senior dogs are the sweetest, even if it is a little heartbreaking. She's so skinny and has lost so much muscle mass. But just yesterday, she ran like the wind chasing another dog along our fence line. It was fantastic
Brian had to take a little trip in the van to dump the gray water, so Van and I decided to join him and take a little walk. This patch of baby ferns was amazing.
We spotted a huge amount of white pelicans. I didn't even know it was a thing until I saw some on Monday with Boss. I guess they were found in Wisconsin in the 1800s-1900s but their population declined due to hunting and habitat loss. Over the past few years, their populations have been growing. We've noticed this with sandhill cranes too. It's been so cool to see.
The quarry had the most amazing water. It operated for 1890s to 1924 for dolomite.
I wish this photo was scratch and sniff. This lilac bush smells amazing.
Is this not the cutest book cover? I’ve been following the author’s IG account for a while. This is a sweet love story about her rescue dog, Simon, her fiancee and all the foster dogs who have been a part of life over the past decade. Of course I loved it.
