{backyard}

diptych {backyard}


i've missed teaming up with Patty each Thursday!

{have i ever told you Patty does all the work?!}

my backyard photo is from alaska...

lots of dogs in our new village!

i wonder if this little guy ever gets jealous of the macho sled dogs next door?

i think it's interesting that patty and i both chose backyards with water

and animals, too!

i grew up with a river in my backyard

and so i think rivers, like scents, pull me back in time and place

playing tom sawyer and huck finn with my country neighbor, peggy

ice skating

exploring

wading

hearing my mom's big brass bell calling me home for dinner

a river runs...

right through my heart!

I love your image, Cathy. I feel bad for the little guy, though. All chained up outside. I want to go cuddle him. He'd likely bite my face off, I'm guessing! :)

OH friend, the pictures I took last night are of what???? My dog! They are my next post. We are so alike in so many ways. Your photos are beautiful. Do you still have the bell from your Mom?
