Fennec, zen relaxation master.

He was sound asleep...apparently mid-gallop.

Next to the Great Danes at the park, suddenly Moji is a much smaller dog.

Sound asleep in the crook of his daddy's arm. I like how Gadjo's bottom jaw is slightly displaced here, making him look like a little goat.

Untitled 85



Pastel on Sennelier LaCarte, approx. 3" x 3".

Several of you have kindly let me know that my main email address and my website are down. Thank you. The Husband is in charge of that stuff and he said he will look into it.

Blog comments are being saved on blogger, still. I am periodically going in and "manually" moderating them, so keep commenting, please.

I have started teaching The Husband to play guitar. (I play at about an intermediate level, self-taught.) We quickly discovered that our deaf Rumi can feel/sense the vibrations of the strings, and he is completely fascinated.

(In the video I suggest that Rumi hook up with cute Nora, the piano-playing cat.)

Ann Gorbett, with my permission, has wonderfully captured Rumi and Gadjo in palette knife paint. Check it out.



If one is going to lounge in the sun in a papasan with one's best buddy, one ought to do it in style.

If I had time, I would start a whole new blog called Stupid Things The Husband Does. I'm sure it would be very popular. 


(I told The Husband about this idea, and he's okay with it. No sense of shame.)
