Dogs in the Neighborhood
The Advertisement Committee (okay, that’s just one person) did not put “NO PETS” on the poster. So, we went with it. First time in decades that pets were allowed.
OMG! So many dogs. A lot of BIG MASSIVE HUGE DOGS WITH SHARP POINTY TEETH.
I didn’t take pictures of those particular pooches because I have a minor fear of gaping wounds on my body.
But here are some…..
Today I have a smattering of snaps for you:
This Troll
This Lizard
This Alligator
This Spice
DOG OF THE WEEK!
If you don’t read the NatureCoaster.com, here’s a link to my article from this week. Also, I write on my other blog Designs by KTGreen at least once a week–usually Tuesday and Thursday. So if you are missing me, you can usually find something I wrote in one of those two places!
Last day of school was yesterday. The Homosassa Elementary teachers and staff lined up on the side walk and as the buses pulled out the bus drivers honked and the kids hung out the window waving like crazy back at the teachers. All the sewist in the Sew Cool! Workshop lined up in front of the Learning Center, too. As the last bus headed up Mason Creek Road, we heard one of the teachers say “And where’s the beer truck?”
Today, Friday, May 25th 2018 at 1 pm, Jodi Lanier will be having a presentation at the Homosassa Springs State Wildlife Park on wild flowers. Besides knowing all about wild flowers, Jodi knows all about the Chassahowitzka River. If you ever want to do a kayak tour she is the person to contact. Just email me and I will send you her info!
Hurricane season doesn’t officially start until next Friday but there’s a tropical storm headed this way now. It should just bring rain to us but after several days of torrential downpours, the streets in Old Homosassa should be flooded! The signs are already out saying “Flood in area” because of the storm that came through on Tuesday. Be careful!
Have a great weekend!

Well, I screwed up and put up my Friday post on Tuesday. That’s what I get for trying to use the iPad.
Anyhow, our sweet pooch Maggie passed away on Monday. She was 18 years and 5 months old. Up until two weeks ago she was still taking a 1 mile walk on most days of the week. Then she just quit–wouldn’t go past the end of our road and that was just so she could check to see if her best doggie friend Gus was out. So we started taking her on bike or golf cart rides instead.
Maggie came to us when she was only six weeks old. She traveled throughout the country–Terry often said that she flew more than most people! After she started going deaf and blind, we drove with her since she couldn’t hear or see commands.
I could possibly write a whole book about her and our adventures but I thought I’d just throw some photos up of her.
I miss you Maggie.
