Hello. My name is Spike, and I don’t ever get to say anything in cyberspace. It’s not that I don’t have something to say. It’s just that nobody ever asks me what I think.
And I think plenty. That’s what I do best. Think. In this family thinking is a lost art and talking occupies center stage. Talking, in my opinion, is overrated.
For example, nobody has ever asked me my opinion on summer. In my opinion, summer is hot.
I don’t get the pool thing…
Normally I enjoy a refreshing dip in water, but this water ain’t right. It smells funny. I don’t trust any water that smells funny.
So take me back, country roads, to the place I belong which is inside my air conditioned house…where I can think in peace and quiet…
but not always in solitude…
Oh, well. You can’t have everything, if you stop to think about it.
I'll Call It Like I See It

We’ve just had a period of extreme heat – the most glorious storm last night has relieved us mightily! Phew.

Hi Spike! So happy that Slow finally lifted your gag order so you could share your thoughts with us. Tallulah and I totally agree with you about the heat, but I think we could be convinced to jump into that pretty pool. Hey, we love things that don’t smell funny. 😉 Stay cool, my friend!

Thank you, Miss Harper Lee. Slow and Pretty were in that water again this afternoon, and Charly and I were tempted to join them…but in the end, we just turned on our paws and walked back inside to the cool air. Sigh.

Oops, just realized I should have said that Tallulah and I love things that smell funny, not that don’t smell funny. I’m going to blame that oversight on the heat. Ok, everybody back in the pool. 😉

Miss Poppy Seed is always thrilled to hear about the doings/nappings of her paw pals in South Carolina. Cassie Potatoes? Meh…it’s too darn hot!! Air conditioning is the best thing humans came up with after Pupperoni. 😁

I agree with Spike. Summer is hot and I count my blessings everyday for our central air conditioning.
