Day 43 - Week 6

A week of rain is expected so we made the most of the sun by working outside all day in the vegetable garden. Peas, lettuce and onions finally got into the ground. I know it's late but I have a pretty good excuse.

The pups got to take multiple trips from the back of the house down to the garden and back to the back of the house. I just carried the x-pen as I herded them. They are getting pretty independent so travel is a bit time consuming. Whenever I went back to call stragglers, the forerunners would follow me. If the stragglers were doing something interesting, I had all pups needing to be distracted and redirected.

The up side is that they are getting strong and tired. Though not tired enough to sit still for the weekly pictures. Dave however is too tired to help take the pictures.
Today's company - Darlene could not talk Lloyd into adding a Chinook to the household. Even with special kisses from Kaltag, he is still a black lab guy.

The pups look asleep here but just try to pick one up for a weekly picture...
