It was a gorgeous day yesterday and Boucle and I took advantage, as many people did, and went for a walk along the waterfront.

Meet Frisco, a royal standard poodle who is 9 years old.  He is very big up close, bigger than a standard poodle.  Look how small Boucle looks next to him.

Boucle was all meet and greet and curiosity……

…a frog prince for sweetie-pie……….

_JAS8926-WEB-6-Boucle-frog-prince  The sales clerk at the store and I laughed…..it was so so cute….was it for me?…or for sweetie-pie…..

As I was leaving, the clerk said “have fun with your new toy!:) “….. 🙂

Boucle loves his new prince frog toy.  He discovered it on the chair, and very gently pulled it to the floor.  Then to the livingroom where he gave it a good workout.  He loves those long floppy legs, and the squeaker of course too…..

And a good afternoon it was for sweetie-pie…….

…into the moment of light……..

Another one from the same day that I was playing with manual mode and manual focus.  Not quite as crisp because with manual focus, and Boucle moving, it was just a bit off.

This was taken in my light colored livingroom, on a sunny afternoon.

….sweetie-pie……..

….in the sunshine…….before the storm………

We had a tiny bit of sunshine yesterday at lunch, so Boucle and I went for a walk and also spent some time in the backyard.

Boucle was very happy to be out in the backyard, no sweater, free to sniff and feel the sun…..before the storm…..
