Autumn Is Here

Can you believe it? It's already Autumn. What happened to Summer? Yikes. Well, this photo was made earlier in the week during a spell of really nice weather we call "Indian Summer." That's a few days of nice weather slung in between weeks of chill. It looks as if Indian Summer is going to end tomorrow, and we'll be in for a long, cold Winter.

I like Winter - as long as I wear my jacket to keep me warm. You see, my fur is really, really thin, and I get cold very easily. How thin is it? Well, you can see my pink skin back around my hind legs and along my belly. So, I like Winter - like getting to tear through the snow like a "banshee" (one of Teddy's favorite words). But I do not like being cold.

Think I'll go outside now and soak up the rays of the waning warmth (Gracie suggested using "waning." You can look it up in the dictionary, if you like). Until next time.

Bye! D-O-G
