Trip To The Kansas Ocean

Ha roo, pups and cool cats! It's me - Zim! Wow, did I have a great trip to the Kansas Ocean with Mom yesterday! Yeah - just me and Mom! Something about someone having excess energy he needed to blow off. I have no idea what that was all about, but wowzers, did I have fun!

We walked all over the place - checked some wildflowers, watched some golfers over on the course, sniffed every blade of grass -- you know, the basics! Then something captured my full attention!

Over there, Mom!

It was in this dead tree.

Yeah, in there!

I was fascinated! I must have stood there staring for a good ten minutes!

Fascinating!

Mom couldn't pull me away. It wasn't until something - or should I say "someone" else caught my attention that I was able to refocus my gaze.

That's right - her! I can't remember her name, sadly, but isn't she a babe!?!? Her mom didn't let her stop (she had her cell phone plastered to her ear!) but I've met her before. She's a Pit Bull/Border Collie mix and she's really sweet! I wish we had been able to exchange sniffies, and I think she wanted to as well, but her mom was "otherwise engaged". Easy come, easy go, I guess.

Anyroo, I got back to enjoying the ocean breezes and watching the water.

What a great day to be at the KS Ocean!

It was a great way to spend a bit of my Sunday afternoon. I even did some posing for Mom. Check out this profile:

Me - Zim

I wish she'd taken one of my blue-eyed side - you know, just to repeat the blue in my collar. Even so, this isn't too bad!

I hope you all had a great weekend!
Play bows,
Zim

  7. Hey there Zim
    Checking out the ladies again are you?!!! It's fascinating that Mom didn't get it... Your stop at the tree... was just to THINK, wasn't it? To plan a course of action, so that you would cross paths with that pretty lady-doggie!!?? Eish, these humans!:)

  24. Too bad you weren't able to meet up with your friend this time but maybe next time her mom will be off the phone. What was in the dead tree that had you so fascinated?

    I like oceans where you can see both shores! very purty!

    so sad your friend's mom is on the phone. hope the poor gal gets more lovin' than that on her usual walks! doesn't anyone know how dangerous it is to walk a dog and talk on a cell phone at the same time? the danger is in a pulled arm socket when the doggie sees a pal or a bunny! woof!

  34. Zimmy, you are so handsome I can't imagine that she will be able to walk by you in the future. I bet she is having a "talk" with her Mom about this. Glad you enjoyed the ocean!

  35. You mean even the talented, ever-so-calming Zimmie couldn't put the moves on her mom so she'd come over? Wow!
