The Kids at Camp

While we were away in Rome, the kids (i.e., our greyhounds Azalea & Grant) went to "camp", as Isaac referred to their sojourn at the house of friends Deanna & Brian — and their three greyhounds Wren, Symbra, and Blitz. What a great camp, too: beds and sofas everywhere, a doggie door for going in and out whenever, a big yard for full-out running, and greyhound friends to take naps with, a very good thing since napping is the primary activity of greyhounds.

You will be little surprised to learn that this posting is really just a pretext to show pictures of the kids. Deanna took some lovely, and very characteristic, photographs and posted them in the Greytalk forum. (Attention greyhound folks: if you don't already know about greytalk.com, now you do. Others: if you've never seen greyhounds sleeping on their backs–a popular position–here's your chance.)

Here, then: Azalea's photos, and Grant's photos. Thanks, Deanna, for the great mementos.

    Uh oh. Your links didn't link. I want pictures! My office manager has been in greyhound rescue. I love it when she brings her greyhound to work!

    I'll see if I can get them working again, Joe. What was working for me last night is not working today and I don't know yet where the problem is.

    There's always something gratifying in seeing pets well-loved and cared for. I only saw photos off the second link, but those were quite a sight. Good for you and for your "kids."
