Saturday fun with animals

 This week I have few encounters with critters.

Last week I met a friend's trial new dog, Champ. I haven't seen him this week, so he may not have worked out for her.

He was a rather slow moving older beagle. The interesting part of his  story was that his owner had recently died. And she had died the same day that my friend had lost her own dog suddenly. She was trying out living with Champ for a few weeks, I believe. 

Another blogger recently posted some art by an artist who was also recently deceased, Leoma Lovejoy. Blogger is Southwest Daily Photos.

From a Gallery Show by the Red House artists, in 2021 a selection.

My contribution was a ceramic open sculpture of trees (which sold!!)
