The Rain has Finally Stopped

Hi Everyone,

  The rain has finally stopped. In 33 days we had 20 inches of rain. The lakes here are full to capacity so the dams have had to open their gates. Unfortunatly, that means a lot of people on the river have gotten flooded. I hope all my four legged friends are all okay.

  Today I'd like to share a few pictures of Norfork dam and surrounding areas.

  Aren't I a handsome dude?
The water had actually gone down some before we arrived but the fishing was still good. Six trout and a small bass. Not bad for a few hours work.

  This is another picture of the water below Norfork Dam. It sure is a beautiful spot and felt so cool.

  I hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend. Wait till you see my new friends I met on the Norfork Lake.

 Enjoy the sunshine.

My Friend Bogie

Hi Everyone,

  I would like to share a few pictures of my friend Bogie. Each day I take my walk I will share with you some pictures of my neighborhood friends.

  Bogie is fast....He is also so well trained that he does put a lot of pressure on us less than perfect dogs. But he's still a friend and we do give each other a good workout when we get together.

 Bogie may have short legs but this boy can run. He sure put me thru my paces the first time we met. By the time he was done chasing me I had to crawl into my water bowl just to cool down.

 I have to admit if Bogie doesn't want to play. Bogie doesn't play. No matter how much I irritate him he will ignore me if he's not in the mood. Guess he's just getting old.

 Gotta go. Time for me to help my mom feed the birds again. They sure eat a lot.

Baxter Is Back

Hi Everyone,

  I know it's been a while since I've updated you on my activities but things have been busy around here. My family was out of town for a few weeks so I went to the doggie spa and had a great time visiting with my friends. Met a few new one's too. Since I got home we have had nothing but rain, rain, and more rain. In the last seven days alone we've had about 10" of rain. Doing my business outside has been an adventure, to say the least. I was beginning to think I would have to grow webbed feet.

 The sun has finally popped out and the temperature is warming up again. I am now back to my neighborhood walks and seeing my friends. Had another new adventure this week. I got my first haircut. It was kind of fun to have someone fuss over me. I got a nice clip, a good brushing, and a very nice massage.
I liked it.

  Don't I look handsome? Can't wait to get out
and show my friends how great I look.

   Take care everyone and enjoy that sunshine.

Baxter
