Working Dog

The life of a U.S. Marine Corps military working dog handler is just like that of any Marine. It’s full of training, learning how to better serve those around them and working to ensure the mission is accomplished. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Staff Sgt. Caitlin Brink)

Hello Kathy, I am keeping my eye out for the perfect part time retirement job but no luck yet, and yes I am extremely picky. 😁

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mayor...and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

We made it thru hump day...hurrah for us!!

Hope your week is going as planned.

I believe Tippy met and made a new friend...

Hi, luvie...we won’t forget!

[radu]

I’m not surprised you smell smoke again. It’s looked pretty nasty up there today. There are a LOT of fires in AK and across northern Canada these days.

There have been small fires in TN but apparently nothing has gotten out of hand ..... yet. One town had 9 fires in 24 hours. Some were compost piles that spontaneously combusted.

It’s an ugly summer.

LOL I imagine your pillows will be calling your name all evening.

[luvie]

We sure won’t.

Well, everyone needs a friend! Especially one named Daisy!

A very pleasant good Thursday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

How's everyone doing this morning?

[E.G.C.]

We went to Waurika Lake early yesterday to beat the heat. Here are all the pics:

[left that other site]

Daisy is a neighbor dog who is also a young, female Aussie Cattle Dog.

At first their meeting was like two Tasmanian Devils getting together.

Then they mad peace and walked together nicely.

Howdy, howdy, Early Birds!
I just barely missed morning. LOL!
It was great reading about our troops!
They are the best of the best!
All y'all have a Thank-The-Troops Thursday!
It's gonna be hot here...over 100
...and for the next 7 days. Ack!
Anyway....(((hugs)))

[luvie]

Looks like you’re finally getting some rain. Hope there’s enough to make a difference and stop the fires!
