Major Danes


 Show me the green - Crawl
Back to Full Blog  

Photobucket

I left last Monday to spend the week in Columbus, Ohio (shout out to all Ohio Streamers!). I enjoyed a week long conference in downtown Columbus - which by the way boasts at least 4 - count them 4 - pink lit buildings in its downtown skyline. We left MN on a day predicted to hit 50-whole-friggin-degrees... something the MN population would give a limb for as we stand on the brink of spring. BUT, even though I missed it here... it was a good trade as I got ONE whole 70 degree day while in Columbus, and it felt great! The warmth was enough to keep my spirits up as we returned to a paltry 42 degree, gray sky day, but at least we can finally see the grass here (not sure if the northern half of the state can say the same thing).

In honor of the green stuff... this week's majordanes crawl pays tribute to it and greener days to come! Have a great night Streamers!!!

Hi Dalpha, I decided to get on the stream for awhile today, and I wanted to stop by and say hi, and leave some love!
We are having a very warm day here. I think I will have to mow grass by next weekend if this nice weather stays around.

Nuns mowing grass

Love,Dixie

DiXie! That picture is GREAT!!!! haha
Ok - but really? - I mean... REALLY?! - you have to mow already?!!!! That is just WILD to think! I was just wondering today if the snow is actually done falling here and to be honest - I'm still not sure?!!

I miss the smell of cut grass.
I wish this picture below was a scratch and sniff!

Have a great weekend and I am SO glad to
have you visit! Sending love back along the miles!

OH NO? How did that happen? Not the Majordanes!

Back in June 2007, I had an first run at this blog thing, then quickly
re-thought the name... so if you try majordanedays.blogstream.com
you will see that as DEACTIVATED, but we plan to ride the stream for as
long as the waters carry us! Just some frozen nonsense ramblings
from MN
about life
and canines...
with the majordanes making frequent appearances and weekly
inspections. If that ever happens again... know that I would never deactivate
without a final goodbye to all the Streamers.

Have a great Crawl. I sure enjoyed finding GRASS songs for tonight!

Busman?!! Sorry - I just re-read and finally understood you meant DiXie's place was deavtivated. Whew. I was worried that some weird SNAFU had happened with my site...
yikes. Yep - DiXie deavtivated a while back and needs some time. She is still around and visits and I miss her humor and company. Send her good thoughts whenever you can.

Have a great night Busman!

Dalpha - . So were you there for the shake up too? The earthquake tremor?
Great music and checked out your post from last week too - great pics!!!!!! June

Belllllles! I came by, but you had signed off. Bummer. I was hoping to catch you.
I put up a chat box at my place if you are still around somewhere.
If not, sleep well and catch you tomorrow.

See you soon and thanks for hosting the party
tonight! Have a great day tomorrow!

Hi June~!! We were there for the shake but not sure what time it happened?
We had an early flight out that morning so it is possible we were in the air.

A few co-workers reported feeling the tremor and several others who slept through it.
Odd to think of earthquakes considering I would have no idea how to deal with such an event... just no schema for it coming from MN. Tornados top the list of our natural disasters to watch for up here!

It was hard being gone from the pack and family for the week... so we all went out for some good Japanese hibachi last night! It was fun and we hugged every chance we got.
The boy has the same friend over tonight - the one that needs a safe place sometimes away from home - and we are happy to support and talk with him as he goes through tough times. It takes a village to raise a child... even a 15 year old... and sometimes they need it even more.

Glad you enjoyed the music tonight. I had fun searching for "GRASS" music and I was pretty happy with what I found for the Stream.

Thanks for coming by June!
I hope you are having a great weekend
and thanks for getting me over the rough
spots this winter as I needed the extra sunshine!

by Bella (PM , CC ) on Monday April 21, 2008 @ 11:47 AM




Busman -
BM does sound bad!
Haha - no worries... I won't take it personally

Well, DiXie sure seemed happy to see you back
on the stream and she is a right good judge of character
so I am happy to have you over to my place anytime!

Feel free to send her msgs and leave her love here any time.
The danes will watch over it
and get it to her safely!

Have a great night Busman!

Bella! haha Nope, staying in one state this week (but JUST barely)! I'll be fairly close to the Canadian border (I'll send a warning out to Anex!) Heading "NORT" for the weekend to volunteer some physical labor hours at a camp. I volunteer a few times a year to help get the grounds and buildings ready for sessions. It is time well spent and I will bring the danes for some northwoods time, get those city dogs out of the urban jungle for a few days. I freak out every time Ava goes off on her own and I have this panic thought that she won't find her way back. Deaf dog, barly sees... Eek!!! ! Then one time I sent Luna after her and he DID it?! Down the trail, around the bend, and back they both trot. How? - what the... wait a minute...? That's when I discovered he is WAY smarter than he lets on!

Future travels for those inquiring minds:
May - Sacramento, California
June - Boston, Mass and Rapid City, SD
July - New York and Milwaukee, WI

POLAR!!! Ohio was awesome!
Ok - do you KNOW the reason for so
many pink lights downtown Columbus?
It was inspiring to say the least.

It BE seriously RAINin' here tonight.
But rain is way better than snow - which they
predicted for tomorrow. YES - you read that correctly.
U-G-L-Y... MN-tans are leaving in droves!

Make room in Ohio Polar!
If you see a frazzle-haired frozen brunette with too big
dogs on your door step - be sure to let me in!
