Deck Time

Hi everypuppy and everycat! It's me - Ammy! It's a beautiful Fall day here in Kansas! The whole family went on a really, really nice walk this morning and then when we got home, Dad said it was so nice out that we should go have coffee on the deck together! I think the "coffee" part only applied to him and Mom, so us puppies got big drinks of water and we headed out. Storm said she'd stay in the house on guard duty - I thought that was very nice of her, so we could relax and know the house was safe! Anyway... the rest of us headed outside.

Dave settled into a corner he likes:

Aren't those red trees pretty down there? They're Amur Maples; I'll tell you more about them later in the week!

Zim picked his spot and got comfy:

The tree you can see in the background is our White Ash. It's all kinds of pretty yellows and oranges now. But not white. I don't quite get that. Here's another shot of Zimmie:

I was over on the north side, checking the yard for bunnies:

Anybunny out there?!!?
I didn't see any.

It was a very relaxing morning out there. Nice and peaceful.

Yep. That's about it. Just being calm and quiet, taking in the sights. Really.

"Hee hee hee."

OK... maybe there was a little more activity out there. And I don't want to say who might have started that activity or anything.

In other news, here's a photo of Davy:

Davy. Looking a bit... bored.

And... um... here are some pictures of my brothers enjoying the quiet, peaceful morning. In this first one, it appears that Dave wanted to tell Zim a secret.

"Hey Zimmie. I've gotta tell you something. Come here. Closer. It's a secret."

Zim looks like he's laughing... but then he got a rather insightful look on his face:

"Hey. You guys don't really think I'm going to fall for that one, do you?"

And then... um... then...

What a lovely way to spend some time! Crispy air, sunshine, Fall colors... it was all so beautiful. Thanks for spending time on the deck with us!

Love,
Ammy

  7. Hello Ammy, my lovely cheery Grinning friend, you always make me smile, you have such a delightful funny smiley face.

    First of all, how is poor Zim's nose?

    Has it been freed from the wooden posts yet?

    I would hate to think of him stuck there with his snooter between the posts and not being able to look out for bunnies!!!!! Or take the appropriate action(or in my case "inappropriate action).......

    Secondly, I think you are spinning me a yarn, or you have "sPUN" a yarn, or a PUN!!

    he he he! is this a pun, a clever pun?????

    and here I quote

    Hey. You guys don't really think I'm going to "fall" for that one, do you?"

    I love your posts Ammy, I look for the humour every time, and it seems I find it.

    Phew I am exhausted now, btw your garden looks beauteous.

    Your friend, P.F.

  19. Hey Ammy...you and your family sure have a beautiful deck to relax on!! Beautiful views and very beautiful colors of the trees. Definitely a great day. Wonder what the secret was about? It was nice of Storm to guard the house...he was probably having some quiet time for himself. You have a great place!!

  27. Hey there Ammy
    Thank you so much for sharing your deck time with us. It sounds lovely up there!
    Here's a thought: We think your Mom has chosen you all for your colours! Its the red-haired's turn during Autumn/Fall and the black-n-whites' turn during winter. Summer is for all of you! What a way to choose doggies.
    Love the pictures (always!)

  30. Love that paw technique of Zim's. A pup after my own heart, or after my paw. Or something.

    ReplyDelete
  31. So beautiful! I would love to come and hang out on your deck with you all. It would be sooo serene!

    Well, until Dave and Zimmie wanted to play, and then it would be fun!

    I don't think Dave looks bored. I think he's day dreaming of ME!

  32. Has our weather not been absolutely divine lately? I'm really trying to enjoy it now...it will be over soon. Zim is so cute, always looking through the railings, inside and out. Ammy, I'm glad you weren't involved in that ah, ummm, altercation. Is Storm feeling ok?

  33. That was very relaxing. Those boys sure know how to ruin the peace and quiet. :)

  34. I think there's no better after-walk activity than a nice big drink and some wrestling. Mom often says, "Why do I bother with these walks if you're not even tired?" I guess she doesn't understand that wrestling is our dessert. :-)
