Summertime Fun

Thank you for all the kind thoughts and good wishes for Pozy — she is doing amazingly well. She will be back in Pozy Business before we know it!

Maybe she could even do this amazing hike like her nephew, Bright Star Tobie…

Tobie and his humans explored that beautiful lake in the Idaho Sawtooths — GORGEOUS.

I put that hike on my Bucket List — do you want to join me?

And isn’t Tobie so handsome?

I hope you are having a wonderful and happy Wednesday! And don’t forget to send me your photos of summer adventures (sontag.ma@gmail.com) — shared fun is extra fun!

Pozy Clarkia's Not-So-Excellent Adventure

It wasn’t quite the summertime adventure we wanted but off we went to Sun Valley, Idaho — we being Claire, Capella, and Pozy — and me, of course. Someone had to drive, after all.

We left the house at 4:00 am yesterday — the 5+ hour drive could not be more beautiful. Seriously.

The wildflowers put on a spectacular show…

This seemed appropriate given that the reason for this trip was Wildflower Pozy Clarkia…

Pozy tore a cruciate and so yesterday was her surgery day. I like the Sun Valley guy a lot and so off we went…

I could feel like the Universe is not my friend lately and I suspect everyone would understand. But most of the time I am able to see all the good things — all the blessings — all the ways I am supported.

Like wildflowers on a hard day.

Claire

There is always consolation. Always. We just have to see it.

We arrived promptly at our 9:30 appointment and left Pozy to get fixed up.

I poked around Ketchum for a bit — what a charming place that is. I found the HUGE dog park. Normally I am not a dog park person — but this is no ordinary dog park. It is acres of open space where dogs can be off-leash. Claire stayed in the car while Capella romped — a dog park would not be Claire’s cup of broth but Capella? She had a blast.

Claire also had fun yesterday — her most favorite kind of fun…

Thanks to Bright Star Tobie’s humans for telling us about this gem of a spot — both Claire and Capella LOVED it. The swimming genes are strong in Capella…

Then it was 3:00 pm and time to pick up a sleepy Pozy and head back home.

And so we did.

How is that for a Summertime Adventure?

Happy Tuesday, Friends!
