Cliff is working six hours today. It's rough on him to work Saturdays because his normal shift is 3:30 to midnight. In order to work Saturday, he has to go in on the day shift. They let him come in a couple hours late, though. So he gets four hours of sleep... wakes up at 5, leaves at 6, works till 2.
Rain still threatens, so I didn't want to leave on horseback this morning. I took Mandy out for a couple of "sit-stay-heel" lessons, and saw what, at first glance, looked like golfballs in the front yard. That's my neighbor, Marvin's, place in the background.
On closer inspection, I saw we had a toadstool invasion. They seem to be growing in pairs.
I let Mandy off her leash to see what she'd do.
Of course she was a bit cautious, but soon curiousity overcame her fear.
Obviously no smell....
.... and no sound....
They must be safe to play with!

I CAME HERE FROM ANOTHER JOURNAL I WAS READING ABOUT COUNTRY LIVING, AND AM GLAD I DID!!
I HAD TO LAUGH AT YOUR DOG NOT KNOWING WHAT TO MAKE OF THOSE TOADSTOOLS!!
WHAT A NICE JOURNAL YOU HAVE, AND I WILL BE BACK OFTEN TO READ!!

You have an adorable dog. Pat has crazy hours like that too.
That is so cute I dragged my husband in here to see it. Big mistake - it gave him another opportunity to criticise my messy office.
Are you sure those aren't actual mushrooms? Many years ago in Manlius, NY, a stranger once asked permission to harvbest the mushrooms in our yard. It's hard to be sure from these pictures, but I think they looked like that. - Karen
Loved this, just looking at Mandys pics! Hope you are doing well. :)

Mandy was such a pretty doggie. I laughed at her curiousity about the toadstools! So funny!
