We have written about this fantastic educational center once before, but were able to stop at it yesterday as we were moving up the South Carolina coast.  Sewee Environmental Education Center is a great museum just north of Charleston that also houses a few Red Wolves.  The Red Wolf was originally found throughout the Eastern…

Emmet Park – Savannah, GA

December 29, 2010 |

Tuesday, we drove down to Savannah, GA, and hung out for a while.  We most enjoyed hanging out at Emmet Park, which is right on Bay Street in the historic district.  After running through the park for a while, we just hung out in the middle of the park and people (and dog) watched –…

Weather Revenge

December 27, 2010 |

Ok, pups, this is going to sound really weird.  We are getting around 2 feet (~60 cm) of fresh snow at the house.  Too bad we are not there to enjoy it. Yep, our humans decided not to stick around and enjoy all of that snow. Our humans have once again loaded us into the…

Mighty Acorns

December 26, 2010 |

Mighty oaks from little acorns grow?  Are you kidding us?  We will just go straight to the mighty acorn. First, the good news.  The hu-dad was able to pick Queen Natasha up at the hospital Christmas morning and she soon rejoined The Herd.  She is sporting a stylish reverse poodle hair cut on her leg…

We had a jovial, happy post planned for today, but the last 48 hours or so have been quite challenging at Chez Herd.  The events, however, have created a great deal of clarity for us on what really matters at Christmas. It all started in the early morning hours of Thursday when Queen Natasha woke…

Being Good is So Hard

December 24, 2010 |

With Christmas so close, every dog is trying so hard to be good.  Well, almost every dog.  Let’s just say a certain red-headed dog over at the Annex was tempted by a loaf of bread on a kitchen counter.  An entire loaf.  That was carried into the dining room for consumption.  When the hu-grandmom spotted…

Gates

December 21, 2010 |

Poor Cheesewhiz.  She wants those gates opened because the kitchen is just to the top of the steps.  Amazingly, the humans prefer that we all stay with them when they are downstairs in the den or master bedroom, so these confounded gates are forever blocking our path.  We are welcome up there when they are…

Sunday Morning Routine

December 20, 2010 |

We might be falling into a rut because every Sunday morning starts the same way.  But, frankly, we do not really want to change this particular routine. What is your favorite routine you do?

Columbia Bugathermo Boots

December 19, 2010 |

As long time readers know, we love the outdoors.  Much of our blog shows us hiking, carting with the dogs, or just enjoying our mountains.  The weather here can be very unpredictable and it is important to always wear the proper outdoor gear.  Winters can be especially harsh with snow as early as October and…
