Ants!!!

Ants!!!

Sadie and I were going on a walk the other day, and I noticed this heart image; however it looked like it was moving.  After getting a closer look I was surprised it was a colony of red ants.  My first reaction was… “Gross!”  Why is it a dog’s reaction to try to eat them? “Super Gross!” For All U ant lovers, don’t worry no ants were harmed in taking this photo.  I pulled back on the leash just in time.

Remaining Snow

Flash back about 3 weeks ago, it was the first week of May and we just received about 6 inches of snow. As expected this snow melted very quickly. When I went out to get the mail, I noticed there was only a little snow left and it was hiding in the shadow of my neighbors tree.  When I realized it was shaped as a heart I went to get my phone to get a picture. “Last of the snow and it’s shaped as a heart; it hides, just waiting for me...
