Happy Birthday, Annie...


Pete, the guy who built our house, is a friend of ours.  Today is his daughter's 14th birthday.  And, in the middle of this pandemic, she can't have any friends over to their house to help celebrate her day.  Our community is a lot of seasoned citizens, and it was suggested we do a drive-by parade for her.

At 9:00 this morning, we got in line...


And headed past Annie's house...



I didn't get a photo of Pete and Annie, doing that driving thing.  She had a big smile on her face... and that's a good way to start the day.

Yesterday, while out on our walk, Rufus got into a bunch of cockleburs... it wasn't pretty.  The boy has long fur, and he had them on his tail, his belly, and even by his mouth.  He was very patient while Joan held him and I pulled out the burs; well, except a couple of them that I had to cut out.

This morning, when we got back from the Annie parade, Rufus got a thorough brushing...


Yes, I was thinking: "Rufus, let your Momma brush your belly..."  ;-)  He's a good boy.
