Gryphon
This is a handsome malamute who I had the privilege of babysitting for a couple of days. His owners came up from the lower mainland in order to hike the Berg Lake Trail, on which dogs are not allowed. Gryphon was as good as gold while he waited with us, and in the photo he is overjoyed to be back on the road …
Today is the occasion of the Fall Fair in McBride. I went to town to watch the Parade, which was well appreciated by crowds. Afterward I went to a yard sale, took in the displays at our community hall, and passed Gary in the foyer (got my greeting and a kiss…). Then came home because I expected Gryphon’s owners to be picking him up. Now I’m off to view the Quilt Show at the local Pub, where refreshments will be served… “yay” to both. There are other activities associated with the little town Fair to check out.
We have “medium” occupancy at the Pet Hostel… there are Ranger and Annie, Chester and Beowulf, Dawson and Tak, and Keesha. Night before last, absolutely everyone who was boarding outside was barking furiously for a while, and they would not be comforted or shushed. In the morning, Gary found BEAR poop behind the house, just by our hay shed…. far too close for comfort!!! That would be the cause for the dogs’ fuss… sometimes we just have to trust that THEY know they’re barking for a good reason.
Okay, onward and upward; I have been no help to the wonderful volunteers who host the Fall Fair. The least I can do is attend and lend praise for their efforts (and buy food!). I might get back here later, or another day. Thanks for checking in to my blog.
Love, Ann
