The acorns were dropping from all the Oaks and making such a racket as Charlie and I were out playing with one of new balls. He loves the two balls on one strap a whole lot. 8-)

But now his dog spit is on both balls and all along the 9 inch strap.

So I walked very slowly down to the mail box. I was only 1/2 half way when 2 young buck burst out of the woods to my right... followed by a young female and shorly after that Charlies twin flew across the road after them.

When it saw me I couldn't tell if male or female. At first I thought how did Charlie get out of te house and yard. Scared me as this dog was identical to Charlie. Except it had on a blue collar where Charlies is bright orange and he has a thinned brown leather collar with all his tags.

Boy I came to a screeching halt and I have to admit my heart was bounding thinking it was Charlie. Not kidding - same size & same bark. They both have the same white patch on their chest. Besides the brown collar - with no tags - this dogs feet were white. Charlie's are totally black.

The deer were off to my right and I shooed them in to the woods there. Didn't take much to get them gone.

But the dog stood and watched me while I watched it. I went and got my mail. It's takes me a while longer then usual right now. Oh well!

I have my appointment on the 15th so hopefully can get the booster then.

OH Boy lives on the oposite side of SA and I live in the hills. The front hit them at 1:30pm 1 hr & 15 minutes after it hit here. Interesting timing.

Well, off to try Dr K's ofc again.

Have a good afternoon.
