I am proud of how much growth Moe has demonstrated. So far he has seemed to recognize his people from last year and even walk up to them to sniff and allow petting. Wow! Even men with hats and beards.

I took the dogs on a few lengthy walks. Moe was so hot he did go in swimming briefly. He then napped for hours in the sun. Dog days of summer.

Moe and Penny went on a run with the bike. They ran their brains out and then napped hard.

We all pitched in and helped paint the dock. The plan in to put in the new dock tomorrow.  Paul is going to put the boards down, then install trex (material that never needs to be replaced) on top of the wood.

Paul stained some boards and got things looking nice.

Brian and I went on a nice walk with the dogs. We chatted and he was able to have nice conversations with everyone. 

Andy got us with the prank war. I am finding cute little plastic figurines all over my camper, while he brought out garlic salt with a bright orange sticker that said -“for anal use only” on the side of it. I have a roll of 100 I need to use up.

The neighbors have a milder nest they marked with some cones. This bird put their nest right on the side of the road. It will be fun to watch the progression next week of the babies.

We had our happy hour, then dinner followed with a sunset cruise on the neighbor’s boat. Brian, myself and Paul went with another couple down the shoreline. We had an awesome time watching the sun go down.

We finished the evening out at the campfire. We saw a boat out in the lake with such vivid and bright lights. The lights would change color. We watched that for a while and it was quite the topic of conversation. We had binoculars out and were really engaged in what these people were doing and why their lights were so bright.
