It’s always so gratifying to see the spring blooms at this time of year.









We hope you have a fabulous, blooming spring weekend! Happy Mother’s Day to all who celebrate it.

First, I wait at the door (beseeching eye mode: activated) for someone anyone to take me walkies.



At the end of our street, the humans try to take the leash back into their control. Sometimes I am nice and let them and then, other times…






And that’s a typical Bowser the Schnauzer morning!
We hope you have some great mornings planned, too.

I was away recently, visiting my sister. While I was away my daughter sent me this picture of Bowser, apparently in repose.

Weirdo!
Fellow dog (and even cat) people: has your pet ever made such a similar (or different) strange pose? Everybody: what would you even call this situation?
We hope you are having a lovely weekend.

From Bowser’s birthday: before we got out to celebrate later in the day, I spent some time at Bowser’s house where he was snuggling with his mommy and I got to get in on some of the snuggle action too.





We hope you are enjoying some quiet snuggle time this weekend (with or without nose licks).

Even after a nice long walk, Bowser still wants more play time.


Well, I can’t resist that face. So off we go, for me to throw the ball and for Bowsie to chase it.



We hope you take the time for some play, and a nice cool beverage (dirt optional) this weekend.
Elbows up, and Rock on!

The Star of Ye Olde Blogge turned four on Friday and we celebrated him as best we knew how.
The day started with a walk to the creek, en famille as it was also Good Friday, thus a day off work for Mommy and Daddy. (Bowser loves it best when the whole pack is together.)



For Bowser’s dinner, we continued the birthday tradition of heading to the ocean with him (after a stop for our favourite bowls from Poke Page – yum!). Bowser got to enjoy a bit of each of those too, natch!




We hope you had something to celebrate this weekend.

After his dinner at Bowser’s house, Bowser gets very playful. Usually Daddy and Mommy get on the floor to play with him, but this time I got the chance to have this fun.
A vigorous game of Tug-O-War ensued.






We hope you enjoy some play time this weekend.

On the first day of Spring 2026, I noticed this clump of daffodils near one of the beginnings of our local trail. People who live across from the trail head will dump their yard waste here, and there are quite a few flowering bulbs and plants that become naturalized in these spots as a result. (Or could it be the work of squirrels?) I’m tempted to dig some of these up and transfer them to our yard but for now I’m content to just admire the beauty and pop of colour.

Meanwhile, down at the currently raging creek…


Happy Spring, everyone!

We hope you are noticing some signs of spring where you are this weekend!

Nothing too fascinating happened this week. Bowser got groomed. He was not happy about it (but clearly survived), and we were pleased he got cleaned up and “descruffed”.




We hope you had a more exciting (in only good ways) week than we did, and that you are having a restorative weekend!
Rock on, and Elbows Up!
