When It Rains It Pours

When I posted last it was in between thunderstorms and today it is after a week where the majority of days and nights were nothing but rain. It shows we have a few days to absorb all of the water before it starts again. I wonder if there will be any dry days in between storms this spring to mow the lawn or should I just let it go.

No matter what the weather is or was ... I have to admit my interest in blogging is waning daily.


We did take walks during our absence, in between the rains. Their paws and belly were always wet by the time we returned to the waiting towel outside. They didn't mind being dried off nor having their paws cleaned before going back inside. Most of the walks did not include the camera and if we walked at all due to weather, it was always once per day.

All of the photos except the ones of Heidi were taken this morning. As you can see the field on the left side of that single lane road is flooding ... the difference in these two photos is only 17 minutes.















Heidi has enjoyed the warmer temps but there is no way she is going to get her paws wet ... she continues to wait for Spring.




Honestly I am not sure how much longer I'll be blogging. As you could probably tell this past month, my lack of interest. I've been spending less time on the computer and enjoying it more. I know that feeling will only increase as the temperatures outside get warmer. I'm doing other things now during the day instead of sitting in my desk chair, so we will see I guess.

They tell us to expect a wetter than normal Spring and Summer here in 'the tropics' of Southern Indiana.

The Hounds Put Their Rain Boots On


After two days and nights of a lot of rain, you'll see some standing water behind Stella as we started our walk this morning. As we moved to the back of the field the 'pond' increased in size. None of that bothered Sadie of course ... to her, it's the field and it's time to track scent.















Hard to believe another Friday is here in 'the tropics' of Southern Indiana.

It's Warm Again !!!


It might be a little wet but at least it's warm again. 57° never felt so warm. Back to a jacket and ball cap and ready for afternoon thunderstorms.











Yes, there has been some "spring cleaning" on the blog.

Good days continue here in 'the tropics' of Southern Indiana.

We Are Still Around


We are all still around. Doing nothing out of the ordinary daily routine.
















This photo was sent to me this morning from my friend that lives in Chicago ...


All is good in 'the tropics' of Southern Indiana.

Sadie Loves This Field

From tracking new scent every morning and afternoon ... to getting her sprints and running in ... Sadie loves this field. If she had her way, there would be 4-5 walks per day instead of the normal 2-3.
