Is it really Fall already?

OMD, it is officially Fall (Happy Fall!).   I got out my orange grab-ball to play wiff, but everyone is too busy to play wiff me.   Oh well, lots of activity to supervise and yesterday I did get to play wiff two different furfriends.

Mom and Aunty D have been busy cleaning up after dat Hurricane Florence.  Dey picked up all dat debris dat fell in my yard and dragged stuff to da edge of the road.  Now I've got cleared space for my zoomies.    Arrrrrrrrrrooooo!

We are still waiting for a roofer as we do have a leak and some water damage in Mom's bedroom.   Da ceiling is a bit bubbled but it's not getting any worse so we likely will not have a collapse.   We do need to find da cause of the leak and den get the ceiling repaired and da wet insulation out.   We're also waiting for an Insurance adjuster butt since our damage is small (leak and a huge missing fascia board), we are way down on da list so dey can get to those with catastrophic damage.  It's not as bad as some of our friends and da neighborhood looks like blue tarp city.  So sad.     Some of des guys dat are putting tarps on roofs are charging outrageous prices.   Mom's heard price quotes of $2500 and $1500 from some of our neighbors.  Let's hope dat we don't get a lot of rain anytime soon.

Messi & da BatBall

Mom is a wiz wiff the camera and caught dis grrrrrrrreat soccer ball butt shot.
I may have to blow it up BIG and hang it on my wall.   Hehehe.

So.... Messi (Aunty D's grand-dog) came to visit and his Dad found where Mom had hid my new BatBall.   So he grabbed it and threw it so Messi could play wiff it.   Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Da little piggy, has a smaller mouth dan me and couldn't pick it up or dead-it so he resorted to paw'n it.   Check out his video.

What's wrong wiff dat ball?

Mr. Soccer-butt (my new name for him) is not a happy camper.

Amateurs.  I am da "Master Ball Dead'r " 
and you can't take dat title away from me.

Wags,

Da Masters

So... I heard dat dar is dis show on TV dat's all about chasing balls.   Well, I do love chasing balls so I thought dat I'd get comfy and watch it.

Hummmmmmm....

Dey all seem to want an ugly green coat.   Green is not my color.   I much prefer Blue.

Looks like dey set da white ball down on da grass and den hit it wiff a shiny stick.   Den, dey walk up to da white ball and whack it wiff da shiny stick again.

Dis golf thingy is kinda boring.    

Where's all da action?    Where's da Tiger dey keep talking about?
 
Maybe if dey all chased after da ball and da 1st one to get da ball raced around da flags while de other ones chased him... den it would be much more exciting.  

Or... maybe if dey all buried dar white balls in dos holes and then played Hide & Seek... dat would be fun.

Or.... dey could have a hole digging contest in all dos sand boxes.

Or... maybe everyone could go skinny dipping in all dos water holes.   Now dat would be fun.   Don't ya think?

We dogs sure know how to have FUN.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.........

              Ranger

Pees....   after I fell asleep, Mom changed da channel.  She doesn't get it either.

And now for a wee little golf humor.

Q: What are the four worst words you could hear during a round of golf?

A: It's still your turn!

Golfer: "Well, I have never played this badly before!"

Caddy: "I didn't realize you had played before, sir!"

Golfer: "Do you think my game is improving?"

Caddy: "Yes sir, you miss the ball much closer now."

Golfer: "Well caddy, do you like my game?"

Caddy: "Very good, sir! But personally I prefer golf."

Wordless Wednesday - Woof, woof, woof for da home team!

OMD…. I love dis Big Blue Ball!

Hummm… I can't seem to get a good grip on it.
I guess I'll just have to push it.

When I got older…. I managed to get a really good grip on Blue and he got busted.

Hardball

I gots an AMAZING story for you today.

You know how much I like playing with balls.   Well… the other evening when I was out in my yard, I found me a really cool new ball.

I was having a really great time running around and rolling it around when Mom came out to see what I was up to.   Ya see… all of my regular balls were still in the outdoor ball basket so she knew something was up.

What's ya got there Ranger?     

Yo..  Mom, isn't this a cool hardball?
It rolls really good too.

Dis is a close-up of my new ball.

Unfortunately, Mom (aka "da pawty pooper") took my new ball away and put it on the other side of the fence.  

Dar it is on the other side of my fence.  

Is that fair?  
I mean… I found it, not her.

Mom consulted with Aunty D and she said dat my hardball is a Box Turtle.









I watched it for a long time
(like 87 zillion hours) and you'll never guess what happened…..

…. a little head pop'd out of my ball.  
Arrrrrrrroooooo…it was sooooooooo pawsome.

Then my new ball ('Boxy') waddled away.

Have you ever seen a waddling hardball with a little head?   It was super duper cool.   I hope 'Boxy' comes back soon, so we can play ball again.   I thinks I have the best yard ever.   There is always somethin new to explore.

Wags,

       Ranger

Pees.  Mom said she was glad I hadn't found me a snake (whatever dat is).   Apparently Mom is a scaredy-cat when it comes to snakes.
