Yesterday, we had a sunny day. Almost 80 and we were thinking about getting the A/C working. Today? See for yourself…

I recently got a Motorola Droid phone. I am loving it so far. Here’s a pic from the phone camera on today’s dog walk of Nash, posted from the phone. Hopefully this will make it easy to take and share photos for me.

This world is cracked…

walking a leash of greyhounds

Did you know the collective name for a group of greyhounds is a “leash” ?

Well, up until this last saturday, I was walking 5 of them every day. Of the 5, 3 of them were as easy as can be… Kurt (10.5yr old), Merlin (9.5yr old) and (until saturday) Prince the foster (6.5).
Of the other two, Legs the greyhound means well, but often gets in the way or doesn’t realize where a leash is and gets tangled. He’s nothing next to the last hound however: Nash (1.5yr old) the puppy. He loves the snow. Jumping and making little Nash snow angels. Still, despite that, it’s sure fun to get out and walk them out on the walk.

All the pups on a walk.

As you may gather, Prince the foster dog got adopted this saturday! Congrats Prince. I hope he’s having a good time in his new home.
Just in time for us to be heading out to fudcon this weekend.

Sometimes after walks, the leashes get a bit tangled.

x-mas fun

This holday season has been pretty nice… we decided to just stay home and relax.
It’s been nice to just have Wendy and I and the dogs around. We’ve both played a ton of Oblivion on the ps3.

I got a nice new camera: a Fuji f50fd. So far I really like it. The image stablization works pretty well, and it takes pretty nice pics.

I am still trying to decide what I want to do about organizing my photos, but as an test I setup a gallery2 site for the new camera pictures…
Follow any of the links on the pictures below to go to the gallery site.

Here’s a few pics from the last few days of playing:

Legs seems to be pretty happy living here.

Wendy does too.

Kurt is doing pretty darn well all things considered.
He was diagnosed with Lymphoma not long back and has been going thru some chemo, but it’s all been going very smoothly.

Some folks came and met Prince today. They are going to look at 2 other dogs before they decide…
he seemed to get along well with them…Hopefully he will get adopted soon.

Sorry for the long delay and lack of posting.

Life is nice and busy… some great things, and some not so great.

Here’s some pictures for now:

4 pups relaxing. Kurt, Merlin, Nash and Legs.

Legs and Nash really get along well together.

Prince the foster greyhound (yes, there are 5 hounds in the house with my 3 and Wendy’s 1, and Prince the foster

Hopefully I will get some more pics up soon.

opening day of faire – 2007

Here’s some june pictures. June marks the opening of the Colorado Ren Faire.
As usual I spent a lot of time down there…

Nash had a blast down there. He loved the attention, and as you can see he learned how to relax too.

As usual, my friend T had lap dogs.

Merlin looking regal as always.

Kurt even came up to the front a few times.
