Blowing in the Wind
Once again, we had rain showers yesterday. As we were moping about what to do, Hu-Dad decided it was a great day to break out the Air Force Commander and blow the excess fur out of our coats. As Siberian Huskies, we always have some excess fur and Hu-Dad sends it blowing in the wind.…

Border Patrol
Even though we have not mentioned it in a while, have no fear that the security patrols of Sibe Quentin continue. Queen Natasha the Evil and Princess Kiska are the best border patrol around.

Dinner With The Annex
Hu-Dad went across the valley to have dinner with the Annex, our cousins Tartok and Ruby (oh, and the Hu-Grandmom). Of course, we weren’t invited. Go figure. Ruby and Tartok are the greatest cousins and welcome the Hu-Dad into their home with much enthusiasm. Of course, the enthusiasm waned somewhat when they discovered that delicious…

We Come Bearing Gifts
Sure, we take lots of grief for our wrestling and shedding and other mischief, but do you trust Siberian Huskies bearing gifts? The Hu-Grandmom has a Jeep Wrangler (so does the Hu-Dad) and Wrangler’s have a unique feature – a spare tire clearly visible on the back. And Jeep people are well-known for having creative…

Duty Calls
Never fails. Just when you get good and relaxed, duty calls and you have to go deal with some problem that has cropped up on the horizon. That is the curse of being the big, strong, silent type who only has to respond to trouble.

The picnic table is a prized napping position, but making it back to the house is like running the gauntlet. But what is the obstacle? The distance is not far, but the formidable obstacle soon appears. No one can make it across the yard without his interference.
