Well...it was later than I thought it would be, but he did OK, except for piddling with excitement when I walked in. *sigh* I wonder if he'll ever grow out of that...maybe not.
This just got posted on Craigslist...wonder if they'd work for raised beds?

Mmm...steaks and pints...
Company? Eek! I'd better try to get this place as presentable as it gets...and get the beds back to Hair and ecurbh...
We'll call them on Sunday morning to make sure they get to Mass on time, and on Monday morning to get Joseph to school.
I'll see y'all sometime Monday, unless I get the chance to Freep a bit at Paul's place.
Good Morning - SIP - we found out last nite the new dogpark is open. Sip.Whoohoo, we're heading out with gypsygirl to check it out. We'll see how gypsy likes her adventure.sip.
BBL
mornin'
We gots a new dog play area in a park near here too. We haven't been there. But I'd like to take Sam and check it out.
Suzi: B&B? Just don't get distracted with backgammon or sheetrock or anything and miss the graduation. ;-)
~sip~
Morning!
Would you like some rabbits for your dog park?
No bunnies.
Chipmunks.
(why yes, I am avoiding starting work in the yard, why do you ask?)
Mornin'.
~sip~
I can send you some Pilon if you like, Corin. Do you have an espresso machine or do you want me to send you a cafetera too? ;-)
I'm so excited! Just 4 more days and a wake-up to go!
I'm just funnin' ya. ;-)
But I'll expect ya to serve some up if'n you ever give cause for me to Moot y'all in Washington...I'm just sayin' is all.
I need to give ya "cause"?
Hon, you're welcome anytime for any reason!
Be forewarned...Cuban coffee is addictive. And you'll feel ~slightly~ wired the first time you drink some.
Have you had it before?
I'm thinkin' ~maybe~ I did when I was in Tampa, but I can't recall, so I prolly didn't.
I do miss muh travellin' days. I was thinkin' the other day, I haven't flown anywhere or been west of ~Kentucky~ since 1996.
Considerin' in my job in DC I used to travel once or twice a month, that's just sad.
I've put this off far too long. I need to get outside.
Later.
See ya later, Corin!
Well, we're back. The dogpark is 5 minutes away and gypsygirl had a wonderful time. She wasn't sure at first, this off leash was 'new'. :-) Then it clicked, 'I can run around here'. She circled back a few times, trying to herd us along. 'Let's go see this'. There was a frisbee out there so I threw it to see what she'd do. Well, it appears we have a frisbee dog, she loved it; she chased it and brought it back, numerous times. btw, we were the only ones there. A truly sucessful adventure. Now for another cuppa coffee.
Hmm... well, the price is right... being 1x6, they aren't as sturdy as 2x... You'd probably want to put a post halfway at 3 feet just so it doesn't bow out... and build it two boards high, 6 wouldn't be enough (they're probably actually 5.5), but twelve would.
We could make them work..... Was wondering if you wanted to haul gravel and dirty today - if you get those, you're gonna need more dirt :~D
Cool! Is she actually fast enough to go catch the frisbee?
~sip~
Ruthy's coffee is good stuff... If you've gone into cardiac arrest, it's just the thing :~D
Heh, she would usually get it before it stopped rolling, but no mid air leaping catches. (actually don't want her to do that, she does have a bit of a catch in her get along) but she runs with a very nice line and big ol grin.
Hmmmm....they have Pilon in Raleigh...
I wonder how many I should tell 'em I want if I write and ask if they're still there...16, maybe? Two high and enough to either do two beds or put 'em two deep.
Mornin'. Need something to sip here...must remedy.
