I have only put up one post in the month of October, and Friday is Halloween! If only writing earned me a paycheck--but if it did, I might not enjoy it so much.
Big Boy is even bigger. On Satuday, he weighed in at 72.4 lbs. He's almost your size!! I hope he reaches at least 80 HEALTHY lbs, but we love him no matter his size. After all we love the Little Bean, and I doubt she's ever going to be a healthy 50 lbs. Here's the Motley Crew from this morning:
I am practicing taking photos. I want to be like Amanda, who's talent with the camera is so obvious. It doesn't hurt that she has beautiful subject, too: Paisley, a long legged beauty with brindle patches and one brown, one blue eye; a whole slew of pittie puppies she's fostered, and of course her cutie pie of a toddler, the Grady Baby.Who knew black dogs are so hard to photograph! I guess I never noticed, because I started taking a zillion photos of you when all our backdrops were pristine white snow...I just assumed the faulty photos I shot as the snow melted were bad because the shutter speed slowed down so much. I didn't realize I'd lucked out with the natural white backdrop while you were still alive, and the yucky photos were all my fault.
M has been a number of places, since we last posted. We picked up the doggy coat we bought for Charlie, Koren's little Havanese:
We had the scare with the A dog and his beef bone, but I already put up Ansel's photo from that night. We went back to the Guthrie:
And at the Mill City Farmer's Market, we picked up Marshal's coat:
His coat was made by Sydney Holcomb, founder and owner of Climutt (web site should be up soon), pictured here with Big Boy:
And a shot of the detail (Sydney held onto Big Boy while I tried for the best photo of his coat):
Who can pass up posing next to the cobalt blue of the new Guthrie?
Oh, I can't look!
Then back to rehab--this sculpture is visible from Larpenteur as you drive into the Agricultural campus of the University. The rehab lab is located just one double door away from the large animal facility, so we peek in on the horses when we can. M has seen several, but has not yet met one up close.
Later that same day, Beannie and I walked back to the university, to take advantage of some open space and work off some puppy energy.
She's such a good little retriever--see the tennis ball by her right front paw?
Later in the month of October, M went to the Summit Brewing Company:
mmm...yummy....
I'll catch up the rest of October tomorrow! Always thinking of you Eve, with good thoughts and great memories.

Paige, you are way too complementary!!! How sweet! =)
I love the photo of Marshal in front of the blue, very cool and something I think a lot of people would miss. You have a good eye!
His coat is too cute, we really might have to travel to that market sometime. Is it still going?
Hi Amanda! I am so thrilled someone reads these postings--most of the time I really do feel like I am talking to Everett, wherever she is...LOL.
The Mill City Farmer's Market ended for the season on Oct. 18. I'll post more pics of Sydney's booth, and let her know others are asking about her wonderful works of art. Wait 'til you see Paisle's! Sydney makes all her pieces out of recycled materials--most coats are dry clean only but I asked mine to be washable, so she's felted the materials and the coats can go in the washing machine. Paisle's is mostly cashmere...just beautiful!
