The Poser

We went to the river this weekend. A long car ride followed by a romp around the cabin smelling all the animal life that had passed since my last visit (a year ago). It was warm and sunny and I felt compelled to pose on the bench by the river. No prompting, no commands, just the desire to be higher up, posing. If you click on the picture you'll see the perfection of this picture is marred by a pine needle on my whiskers!

And then the shot by the river. I was desperately waiting for someone to fetch my blue ball that had dropped over the embankment, through a snow patch and lodged itself next to a rock. I was unable to wiggle it free so by posing stoically by the edge of the river, I knew I'd get someone's attention some time soon. It worked.

Finally today...they ate lunch and I cooled myself on a mound of snow. We'd hiked in the heat and my belly on the chill of white was a perfect way to end a perfect weekend.

If you look closely, you can see my blue ball at my chest between my legs. I never travel without it!
