This And That - by Lee

 


Afirst, yesterday's past was Lady's grandfather in WWII, and her great grandfathers in WWI. These men are all from her dad's side.  Her mom's family was just a bit younger so did not have the same experience.

We had a heat wave recently. The normal average is about 5C/41F but we had daytime highs around 18C/64F for like 5 days. Last week Lady drove home in the first snow of the year (we got a couple inches) on Monday and Friday she could have been wearing shorts. It was a wacky week and went with what was happening in the world.




 
Like the rest of the world, we were pretty glued to our devices last week. As some of you may recall, I am a Canadian immigrant, having been born in Ohio and moving to Canada with a rescue when I was a pup. I don't want to turn this into a whole political post because we are all divided enough. However, I will say I am hopefully this change may bring some peace and improvements of rights for all. I am also excited to see the first rescue dog calling the White House home!

Most importantly, I have been enjoying not being the pup who is causing the most trouble in the house for once. I have had more than my fair share of that over the years, Phod can have a turn.

That is about all that is new. I better rest up so I am ready to play with the neighbours pup.

Your pal Lee

    Ohio produces wonderful dogs. Dilly Dog was born in Ohio and so was Wilbur, our late great pug. And Mitzi, our long-ago schnauzer and Joey, the lovable mutt, now of beloved memory.

    We had that heat wave here too. Normally, we don't like them but we'll sure take them in November!

    My GW had her Dad and his two brothers who were in WWII and served in the Pacific area. Then there was Grampa Bill, our Dad's Dad who flew a plane with the Fighting Tigers in India!

    We are looking forward to seeing things changing for the better in the US!!
