SUMMER IS ALMOST GONE
The summer weather is almost gone and we've had a busy time getting back into the swing of things here. With Jo Jo and I working, our time to do house work during the week is pretty slim and we have to wait for the weekends to do anything.
Well, with the cooler weather, we feel the immediate relief than the hot summer days we had. the flowers are getting back into good bloom, the grass is growing more, and the fruit trees are showing their crop.
The Ipo dog is also aware of the apple tree and what it has to offer. She knows what season it is and started to make regular trips to harvest whatever she could reach. So much so, that Jo Jo had to thin out the crop, pickup those apples that fell from the tree and tried to restrain the enthusiastic Ipo a few times.







Here we have the Ipo doggie anxious to check out the apple tree. She just complains when we don't let her out as often. Then when you try to get her back into the house, she has to be bribed. Anyway, the pictures are of Ipo's favorite sport, picking and eating apples.











Smart dogs bide their time until the can get out.

Almost ready for harvest.

Looks like Fall is almost here. I love the season changes. I can't wait till it cools off here. Ipo is so funny. Sorry we can't come & help harvest the fruit.

I'm glad you finally had something new up! I was wondering what was going on in PG. I love the pic of Po eyeing the apples. Just like my kids watching fresh cookies on the counter.

Just let the dog be free already! You are so strict on her since she is the last one at home. How sad, i bet that she doesn't even have friends she can play with.

Po has friends! Look, she has her puppy with her ready to go out and gather food.
