279/365: "Dogs are the Gods of Frolic." ~ Henry Ward Beecher


2 more picture above in notes! :)
Oh, what a gorgeous, sunny morning it was! With a day like this, I simply HAD to go on a walk along the ridge line! So, I grabbed my camera and called for Zoe and Moosie to join me, and up the hill we trudged, all of us delighted and overjoyed at the opportunity to go on an adventure! I decided that since it was Sunday, I would take all the time I wanted. I wandered along, parting my way through the tall grass that grew on the trail, looking at everything that caught my eye, and taking pictures as I went. However, I had just as much fun watching the dogs as I did enjoying my photography!
Without question, the trail along the ridge line is our favorite walk. There's a special energy up there and we are all extremely happy whenever we are there. Moosie is a scent-hound, so he is in heaven as he checks out everything along the trail. Zoe is overflowing with energy, and can run all over the place to her heart's content, though she always stays nearby. The two of them are best friends and love each other dearly. It's such fun to watch them as we go along, and there are always several chasing sessions for me to cackle at with a grin from ear to ear as I watch, my eyes twinkling with mirth. Zoe will goad Moosie by yanking an ear, and then he'll take off in hot pursuit, ears flapping and legs churning as he tries hopelessly to catch her! Zoe makes it easy on him though because she's easily 2-3 times faster than he is, and slows down so he can catch her with a chomp on a back leg to pull the devilish prey down. Then it's a battle to the death as Moosie jumps up and down on Zoe, baying at her in outrage, and she rolls around on her back in supreme happiness, mouth gaping, tongue lolling, and chomping back at him. It is a joy for me to see them so happy. We had such a good time today, I had to dedicate my Picture of the Day to them! :D (The textures I used were SM262010-3 and PaperBox, both from Jerry Jones! Thanks Jerry! :)
(Regarding this quote, the exact wording is, "The dog is the god of frolic." I thought it would be ok to change it slightly to makes better sense! :)
George Bernard Shaw (26 July 1856 – 2 November 1950) was an Irish playwright and a co-founder of the London School of Economics. Although his first profitable writing was music and literary criticism, in which capacity he wrote many highly articulate pieces of journalism, his main talent was for drama, and he wrote more than 60 plays. He was also an essayist, novelist and short story writer. Nearly all his writings address prevailing social problems, but have a vein of comedy which makes their stark themes more palatable. Issues which engaged Shaw's attention included education, marriage, religion, government, health care, and class privilege. Wikipedia: George Bernard Shaw

I know what you mean about some places having energy too.
By dogs are my connection to joy. They rescue me on a daily basis.
Beautiful photo.. and the energy seeps through the screen.
Another little quote for you.......
"DOG is god spelled backwards..."
We also went for a walk yesterday. A lovely day - we picked some delicious apples, ate blackberries and some wild mushrooms for a risotto tonight. Like walking in nature's garden.
Enjoy your week.
we can't have one in the place cause the yard is 2 inches x 7 inches!
