First 2011 breakfast outside.

At last we had a breakfast outside this morning. Rain, wind and above all mosquitoes kept us from sitting outside. Just this morning there was enough wind to keep the buggers away from our deck, so we grabbed the opportunity. Bottom left you see Riley, an American Eskimo, we saved from the shelter where his previous owner would have taken him; just because the breed is somewhat hard to handle. Joka could not stand that, hence Riley got a new home. Chances are we end up with a couple more, time will tell. At least he is adapting real nice now he knows he has a caring home and Fox needed a matey to play with and above all to boss around. And believe me he does; especially when food of whatever kind or size is involved he accepts nothing from Riley. Even an empty plastic (environment friendly :-) ) bag, when we unpack groceries, Riley is not allowed to come close to.
In case you are wondering about the grass; the JD STX38 lawnmower broke down, I ordered a new JD 1023 but I'm still waiting like in 2 weeks. Needless to say I'm starting to get pissed off. I ordered a JD for a reason: it's locally (reed North America) manufactured, given the current economic situation this is not more than logical to me. But if they don't deliver? Go to the .......?
