Both of our collies passed on the same weekend, 1 year apart. We knew it’d be a notable date we couldn’t ignore. So we turned a sad day into a celebration of life weekend for any friends experiencing loss. To add a new wrinkle to this, Ransom was born the same weekend. Feels full circle now.
Had our annual Celebration of Life event, honoring our friends, past collies, and current collie.
I built a 2 story temple from pallet wood I’d been collecting for the past year. People loaded it with notes and we sent it into the ether.

Bought some knock off sonicare heads. They look similar until you get close. The knockoff head bristles are sharp, covered in debris, blue and black contamination in the plastic (recycled plastic), irregular rough bristle shafts. The sonicare bristles are uniform, clean, and have a rounded tip.

I feel like using traditional media again lately. I guess I needed a change.

Huge log floating down river. Ransom kept eyeing logs as they went by. This is why we switched to the creek for swimming.

Here’s Ransom in our creek looking like an otter. We’ll have to do a little more clearing up to make this nicer for him. The main river is way too crazy during the wet season.

River got bigger than predicted. It had been around 6” all summer during the dry season. We had a prediction of just over 5’. It looks like it peaked at 8.36’
Here’s a couple pics at 6” vs 8’

Pretty happy with this latest cl score. Judging from the inside and nearly clean grease tray, I’d say it was used less than 3 times. I’m going to install a quick connect on our exterior natural gas line and never need propane for grilling again. Also never owned a bbq this fancy (or heavy) before.

Bunches of King boletes were popping up around a hillside. Also found a funky looking group of oyster mushrooms on a stump I inoculated years back. Both mushrooms were just a bit beyond the point I’d like to harvest. Bugs got there first.

This was immediately after fixing Hoghog. He’s so happy to see his friend again. So many wags.

Tears as loyal dog waits by window each day for owner who'll never return
The owner told Newsweek that she is trying to break the golden retriever's habit by taking her on walks at the time he used to return home.

Pizza Trip!
Took Ransom into town for pizza.
He was very excited about getting to sit in the front seat. He was even more excited when he found out I hunted a whole pizza to share with the pack.

Ransom working on stay. I usually make him wait at the top of the river bank so he doesn’t knock me over. This is his swimming pool. If he were to ever disappear, this is where I’d look for him.

Spent the weekend at the Physic Salamander Festival and caught most of the shows.
I’ve seen the Flaming Lips more times than I can remember and their shows are always a spectacle, always a lot of fun.
