Friday Dog Photo: Stinkeye

Occasionally we’ll get this look from Adia — the one that says “I’m disappointed in you.”

This week the look could mean any number of things, but I think it’s because we haven’t blogged enough.

Close up of a dog's eye

Australian Shepherds like Piper have the most interesting eyes. They can range from very light blue to deep brown, including both colors in one eye, like this one.

Another interesting character from the Kentucky State Fair

funny photo of  a mule

At the Kentucky State Fair is a special barn for mules and jacks. Mules are the offspring of mares (female horses) and jacks (male donkeys). Mules cannot reproduce.

I don’t know if this is a mule or a jack. I don’t think I asked enough questions.

Remember Colonel Foghorn Leghorn? Doesn’t this fellow remind you of him just a little bit?

This was just one of the many characters I met over the weekend at the Kentucky State Fair. You’ll be hearing more about that later but I just couldn’t wait to share this photograph of a a giant rooster with you.

Bright and beautiful sunflower bouquet

They are hardy plants, and although our plan to disguise the neighbor’s house didn’t turn out as well as we thought it would, we have been able to enjoy the flowers very much.
