I, too, am joyful, since I'm finally "going home" to the lovely little Coast town from which I was uncerimoniously washed by Hurricane Katrina 6 years ago. I can hardly contain my enthusiasm, though I must wait till the end of the month. Do love The Pigeon series, and she DOES appear to be smiling, but who wouldn't, given the chance to chase and fetch a ball.Jean P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01322255428181241355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-57639832022229075112011-06-14T03:58:56.788+01:002011-06-14T03:58:56.788+01:00You made me think of the simples in my own life.

Now that we have our "up country" property in Rozella I am just waiting to show off the photographs of flowers and veggies which we have planted, Googly our dog who is very simple and just thank God that things are the way they are for me.Mysticahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10941269615559681014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-84790795093985748412011-06-13T23:51:34.187+01:002011-06-13T23:51:34.187+01:00I grow my mint exactly the same way.

And, of course, nothing soothes the eye like a dog, urging you on with word and gesture to throw the ball!Colby Kavanaghnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-63827339845401651902011-06-13T18:11:22.047+01:002011-06-13T18:11:22.047+01:00"Who are the Beatles?" is like "Elv..."Who are the Beatles?" is like "Elvis who?" which I think yet another member of the judiciary once enquired.<br /><br />I'm afraid it WAS a meerkat you're thinking of.

I check in every day though and you have touched another nerve.... My eldest and youngest daughters were born on the same day within ten minutes of each other six years apart!!! The eldest is now 11 the youngest 5 and they are still delighted by it! I do feel sorry for my daughter in the middle (8) who doesn't quite understand why everyone hasn't got the same birthday. <br /><br />Lovely pidgeon today, my doggy loves a ball too (not so good at dropping it though daft girl) <br /><br />Amanda xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-51966876578257313412011-06-13T17:25:05.930+01:002011-06-13T17:25:05.930+01:00I do think you mean Aleksandr Orlov, the meerkat!I do think you mean Aleksandr Orlov, the meerkat!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-12567787008825946962011-06-13T17:23:37.284+01:002011-06-13T17:23:37.284+01:00Oh that big doggy smile!
