Blog is such a strange word...

... I suppose I should query and find out how did it start?...or is it an acronym?  I am sure many of you out there in blog land already know the answer! 

Today was a very wet and rainy day on the coastside*.  Great for all the birds and ducks.  They don't seem to mind a bit.  But Madge hates the rain!  Who is Madge?  Here she is just moments ago feeling bored and hating the rain...(do you see her little tennis ball peaking out from under her head..just in case that rain stops?!)


Now here she is on MLK Day feeling very perky and cute -- ready to go!



I do believe she is a barometer of sorts!  We have several pets and they will adorn my pages, a compliment to life. 

Madge is a McNab/Border Collie cross and she is a little "stock" dog but since we don't have sheep she "stalks" the cat and is a crazed frisbee and tennis ball chaser.  She is very FAST!  People at the beach stop and watch her just fly after her tennis ball.  They often say, "He's fast!"  So sometimes we call her "ol' he's fast".  She is actually named for my Aunt Madge, a character, and my Madge takes right after her namesake!

I promise not to talk just about the weather and pets but really want to focus on creative efforts and things that others would enjoy seeing and doing.  But these first days will be a bit of introduction...God bless and I'll be talking to you on the airwaves!...yum...take a sniff...
