Adi Beagle Dog, Sister — MidWeek Blues — Happy Days
Adi is happy. She is used to posing for her best pictures but this one is unposed.
And why is she happy? Look down on the page.
[large picture] [extra large] [large picture] [extra large]
[large picture] [extra large]And my sister, Lois (link), is happy. Seems there is always a little job that somehow just waits for her.
Lois and husband, Jim W, are visiting their daughter's family who live south of here. Also getting away from the colds of the Iowa plains. Isn't their timing wonderful? I am glad they could spend a couple of days with us.
Lois' grandson is playing in a school basketball tournament this week. And her granddaughter is performing at a college basketball game.
My brother-in-law, Jim W, did not bring his golf clubs this time. It may be that the only day warm or dry enough was this Monday but we didn't go. We cancelled the Tuesday tee time because it rained Monday night.
.
Oh yes, the bear. It is almost new but Adi tore a hole in the neck playing 'bear' (YouTube link). I put it in a sack so no more stuffing would get loose and put it on the shelf.
Funny how I remembered that I had put it up there while Lois was here.

Adi Can — Six Word Saturday — be a total mess
I have the messiest beagle dog
Would you believe this is all dried grass?

Adi has just come in from her walk. She loves to go out on the golf course and roll around. She does a lot of sniffing out there too. The only time she got lost (ran away??) was when we first moved here. About an hour later a fellow came by in his golf cart looking for Adi's lost owners.
The picture on the left is to show you how messy she really is.She gets that way in the front yard too. There though, I have a broom to sweep her off. Sort of like brushing.
Here she is in the breakfast room. We go back outside to the back porch(not enclosed) and I brush her off with either a brush or my hand.
.
This is where it all came from. We have for the first year our course didn't get seeded with winter grass. The other years the fairway has been green in the winter.
After a few frosts the grass all dies. Then the golf carts and mowers break up those little pieces like what Adi got on her.

But then what more should we expect from a hound dog?

Adi Can ............................................................................. do National Start a Walk Day
Adi has already been walking for a long, long time. Twelve and a half years if you'd like to know.
We walk at least once a week, Adi would like to walk every day.
My cardiologist and my GP would like me to walk every day. My podiatrist said not to walk. That's two to one with Adi for walking, what do foot doctors know about these things anyway?

Snoop dog looks for chocolate -- Texas Ladies NCAA -- End of era for Adi
Snooping dog:
Katrin has gotten into my chocolate stashes before. Here she is snooping and sniffing from more. The empty sack was a plant for this picture.
I'm working on a redoing and cleaning out of my office. No pictures until and unless it gets finished.
NOTE for BP: I haven't found any money yet. I did find three out of date checks.
Texas Ladies NCAA Basketball:
We have three teams ranked in the top 25. That's
.5 -- Baylor (16-1)
.9 -- Texas A&M (14-3)
14 -- Texas (14-2)
and on their heels
Houston (11-5) [C-USA leader] Texas Tech (11-6)

Ruby (Red) Tuesday -- Adi can . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Play wanna be traffic cop
[large picture] [super sized]
Adi is playing queen of the sidewalk and wanna be traffic cop here. She just knows this fellow coming is going too fast to stop. [I, the intelligent human being, know he doesn't intend to stop.]
I missed getting a picture of Adi closing her eys and putting her paws over her ears!
[large picture] [super sized]
Sure enough, this guy did run the stop sign! Right in broad daylight, he broke the law! Worse yet he could have run over some of us pedistrians on that golf cart path/sidewalk. Or cars coming out, it was a blind intersection for him.
.
I thought I'd tell you about the rules of RUBY TUESDAY.
They are real simple:
On Tuesdays you can post any photo you like (it must be one of your own) that contains the color RED.
I will might post a NEW Ruby Tuesday each some Tuesdays.
Your photo can contain lots of RED
or a little bit of RED
AND (please) post your link here with MaryT

Adi has a new friend (?) Will adoption follow?
[large picture] [super sized]This cute little poodle is named Katrine. She belongs to a friend of ours.
[large picture] [super sized]Katrine meets Adi for the first time. Adi appears to not be very interested in making a new friend.
We believe that this poodle may be needing a new home. At the present time she is staying with us although she belongs to our friend. Circumstances may be developing that lead to her being available for adoption.
(Are you God's child? Do you know he will adopt you as his child?) **
[large picture] [super sized]It seems that both dogs are keeping their distance. About five and half feet here to be more specific.
[large picture] [super sized]One thing of concern is that Katrine insists on barking at Adi. Mostly at a distance.
Here is how their first meeting went:

Adi will have to get to appreciate Katrine if they ever are to live together as sisters should.
Thank goodness God will adopt any of who ask.

Romans 8:22-24 (NIV link):
22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23 Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has?
Jesus the Way to the Father (John 14:5-14) (NIV link)
5 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?"
6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."
8 Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."
9 Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? 10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves. 12 I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.
