End of Summer Weekend

A 5-day weekend coming to an end.  I could have gotten a few more things done, but I just didn't.  
I did get all the needed errands done. I also picked up a "farm share" of vegetables given to us by good friends who are out of town.  We are getting spoiled with the generosity of people giving us fresh vegetables.
~A sampling of what I had to choose from~
We had no real plans this weekend.  We just planned to be home.
I did something we've not done in awhile because its been so hot -- I got out the tennis balls, and played a good round of "Chuckit" with Todd.  He can actually put TWO tennis balls in his mouth.  Something that not many Golden Retrievers can even do.
The weather really could not have been more perfect!  Hurricane Hermine totally missed us.  
Cool mornings allowed us to have the widows open overnight.
~Deizel enjoying the morning~
There was even time for a nap or two.  At least Mo, our foster cat tried to take a nap.  Todd never can pass up the chance to harass him.
It really was a nice and relaxing weekend!
~Josh!~
I hope you are all rested up ....
and that you also enjoyed your weekend!

  6. We also had a fairly low key weekend. In the lake one summer at my parents Phod got 3 balls in his mouth! I laughed so hard when he couldn't get the 4th. Glad it has cooled down and the storm missed you. Enjoy your week.

  16. Just another weekend this side of the pond, but we're glad to hear that you enjoyed yourselves and were able to relax.
    Our first Lab., Sultan nearly always walked round with two tennis balls in his mouth and we often found he had a golf ball at the back of his throat ! He occasionally managed three tennis balls. Lovely photos of all the crew, but the one of Mo trying to nap had me laughing !

  17. Harassing cats is a terrier thing...

    What a peaceful, enjoyable weekend. Hope you have a LONG, cool, dry Autumn ahead.

  18. I love it when we get to sleep with the windows up. I like all the smells that come through and hearing the coyotes howling. The peeps don't appreciate me singing along with them. BOL

    Aroo to you,
