The Pumpkin Patch

I’m not sure if the Great Pumpkin will visit us, but it looks like the Great Horned Owl did.

This year my garden yielded mostly rabbits and bugs. The exception was that I did get pumpkins. I took this picture while I was still harvesting them, so this isn’t their full number. In all I picked 49.

(Off to the left is what happens if you don’t pick zucchini in time.)

*

Can we go visit the garden?

*

While the pumpkins were in the garden, Murphy didn’t seem to realize what they were. He was more interested in the rotten tomatoes.

*

When I moved the pumpkins to the porch, he still didn’t seem to recognize what they were.

Once I started bringing them inside to cook them, he suddenly noticed them. Now he is a total pest wanting more, more, more. (I tried handing him one of the smaller pumpkins to play with or eat, but he turned his nose up at it. He wanted it cooked first.)

Gimme! Gimme! That’s dog food. I know it!

Helpful Autumn Life Advice

Don’t eat the grapes below the level of the dog.

*

The grapes? I was just looking at them. Honest.

*

(Don’t worry. Murphy is always supervised and is not allowed to eat any of the grapes.)

Poindexter

Oh geez, what happened to you? Mommy seems to think I'm nearsighted because I bark and growl at her every time I see her in a hat.

*

I can’t believe you think I might be nearsighted.

What have I ever done to give you that impression?

Actually, a number of people have commented that they think Murphy might not have perfect vision. Starvation can affect the eyes, so it is possible. To me it is funny that he never seems to recognize me in a hat even though I wear them all the time.

I dunno…I think my glasses look good on him!

Should Doogie Run For Office?

While taking pictures off my camera, I noticed that Doogie had a lot of qualities we see in most politicians.

He is willing to blame others.

He claim other’s things as his own.

He’s been caught fooling around on film.

He likes to conduct business in the dark.

He’ll turn his back on family and friends if it suits his needs.

He’s willing to let others pull his strings.

With these qualifications, surely someone will designate him as our next candidate!

Vote for me! I’m cute!

Vote for me. I’m cuter.

Ushanka

Hey, it looks like he likes you! Lucky me.

Doogie was small enough that he didn’t mind standing on Murphy when he wanted to reach something. Given the hot weather, Murphy may have objected to his living Ushanka.

*

I don’t mind standing on your head.

*

I mind a little.

Yeah, my face and your butt!

No wait…that’s not right...

We’ve been having a good week. As soon as things settle down, I look forward to telling more stories. 🙂

He’s Baaack!

Well, it turns out Doogie is just as cooperative for photos as Murphy is.

I think I’m going to ignore him and eat this grass.

Ignore me, will ‘ya? Well I’ll ignore you right back!

*************************

This evening I found Doogie lying in Murphy’s bed. He gave me a look that whispered, “Don’t tell him I’m here.” OK. I won’t tell him, but I bet before this visit is over, I’ll find the two of you curled up together like best friends.
