If the work feels worthwhile and it benefits my home, that’s enough for me.

On our way to Owen Sound Farmers Market.

Dog treats. Cats eat MEAT. Ewwww.
What can you possibly offer to a cat’s human?

A sweet face.
A gentle listener. Nice!

…who proceeded to track his owner’s purchases from the meat vendor (liked our treats).
And for the 2nd one too, yes?

…and Saturday, August 3, 2024!

Walk towards all the commotion (yips, howls, yowls, borking, woofing).
Look for the canine stage.
With all great street fairs, there are some issues with it. Meh… I’ll cope!
Dog pool jump. Sponsored & commercial event. Interesting…
Check that tongue out!

From 08:00 until 12:30. Owen Sound Farmers Market

While PN warms up in the sun:

Waiting for clients…
Jupiter’s a great dog name.

The show must go on! Get your Tobey-Cookies at your local market or craft-fair.

by NapsWithCats-ScubaMan, posted in Community, Events

…TS has set up an online presence for your dog. They want/need Black Dog Biscuits, you… my dear hooman… can order their own pack.

PN is out of commission for the next bit. He discovered how much tissue damage one can do to to his 54-year-old, right shoulder and neck. And pain. Oh my f**king god! PN is being reminded just how much discomfort one can experience with pinched nerves and warring opposing muscle groups. X-rays? Done. Ultrasound examination of that muscle/bone/connective tissue set? Done… and PN is now waiting for the diagnosis from the Taddle Creek Health Team. PN commits to physiotherapy? Ug. Yes. Thank glod for extended medical coverage as a retired teacher.

Markets where you can find Black Dog Biscuits:

Not shown: ice-packs, all kinds of Rx, application of traction to affected limbs, 2 rigged up office chairs, PN crying and yowling in pain.

Saturday, July 6th and Sunday, July 7th – dog biscuits ready for you.

by NapsWithCats-ScubaMan, posted in Events, weekend farmers market

TS will be available at the Saturday farmer’s market and the Sunday craft fair to satisfy your canine’s biscuit needs. PN? He’s recovering from a soft tissue injury.

We’re right beside the carver.
TS is intrepid.
A pack of 3.
The other 2 got treats. Now, it’s the Lab’s turn!
Today’s mediation and its link (the statistics are my own vanity). Yep, I’m committed. PN.

This is a picture of a dog. It’s a cross between a poodle and a Burmese mountain dog.
His epic tail swished away the doubters.
The parking lot is closed until 12:30 p.m. (designated parking nearby).

June 22nd – Let’s try something different…

by NapsWithCats-ScubaMan, posted in Community, weekend farmers market

…at the Owen Sound Farmer’s Market. Our booth will have its bay door open to the pedestrian-only area (during non-market days, or the winter, it’s customer parking). If you have a leashed dog, you are welcomed to drop by that area. There will be vendors on its perimeter. See you there.

I’m a diving dog.
Throw a stone into a lake, and I’ll fetch it.
…okay, it might not be the same rock. But still, I retrieve.
Until 12:30 p.m. today.
And she enjoyed a puppy-sized Black Dog Biscuit (excellent for training).
Dede, this was a kindness. I’m looking forward to trying the condiment on meat dishes.
This is a flock of sandhill cranes, located in a field on Lindsay Road 40.

I was delivering dog biscuits to a neighbour, when I noticed these (good) activities…

by NapsWithCats-ScubaMan, posted in Community, Events
Please do not disturb the turtle nest. Thank you… to whomever installed it!
27 sandhill cranes. With all the avian politics evident!
I stopped and actually READ the sign. This road REALLY is safer to drive.
I imaged the birds without digital zoom. You might have to download it and zoom in.

And here are some images from this afternoon’s Meaford Market (…here’s another link if you’d like more information about the weekly event).

...tba… 10:37 a.m.… And today, from 15:00 to 19:00!

I’m observing how Meaford’s topography affects the local weather. It’s a U-shaped valley.
…And our booth is ready for your visit.
Om nom nom.
A labradoodle.
A bernadoodle.
This is human food, NOT for dogs (contains onions).

When I was a teacher, the last 10 minutes of a class; as a normal human being, when I look outside my window in my home… or,…
Moments.
Nice!
