Happy 4th of July! The values of freedom and democracy are still worth celebrating, even if they're getting trampled by this government.

I present to you the Bronze Age standing stone, known as Queen's Stone.

Excavated in 1926 by Alfred Watkins (of Ley Lines fame), twice as much lies buried beneath the ground.

It sits alone in a huge bend of the River Wye, near Symonds Yat.

And the strangest thing about it? There appears to be no surviving folklore about this remarkable stone 🤷🏼‍♀️

It’s been awhile since I shared a Maddie pic, but this was too cute to keep to myself. 🐶🐾

I'm usually passing a lot of those little free libraries but only today saw this combined book and stick library.

Summer got caught.
Her pal is looking for his hat.
Summer says what hat?
Why are you asking me?
She looks so innocent.
Good morning, Mastodon.

After dinner we play.
All of us together.
This is our opportunity to engage in a little loving mayhem. Treats are dispensed with creative and joyful ingenuity.
We started with some small jerky treats flying through the air with the greatest of ease. Summer plucks them, before they fall, while we cheer her for her skills.
She brings her pal a toy which he scoots around with his feet. Summer decides the tease is too much so she grabs the toy to toss out of the fray.
I happened to catch both items in the air.
I asked Summer how cool is that?
She gave me a look because the cool part was being part of the action.
I shouldn't have to ask.
That's my story for tonight and I'm sticking to it.
A little truth in the ocean of untruths that overwhelm on social media.
Not a viral truth but truth all the same.
We need more truths.
Summer and I have a mission.
We will share our truth.
Mastodon friends uniquely appreciate truth in tooting.
Lucky for us.

Okay, we found a good stick today.

Thankfully he is a stick hog and doesn’t expect me to throw it.

There’s always the chance he will stab you with it, so you have to be careful.

Still trying to get back into a normal rhythm after the fireworks. Our turn for 100F temps soon, so lots of night creatures are keeping Geo awake

Bagel is half dachshund. So you'd think he'd only do the dachshund thing of sitting in protest on walks half the time. But nope.

It was time to cook Summer's breakfast so I left her in charge of her pal.
Next think I know there are strange sounds coming from the recliner.
Summer decided to lighten the mood.
Joke time.
She told him an oldie but a goodie.
Knock, knock
Who's there?
Ooze
Ooze who?
Ooze a good girl?
She got him to laugh out loud.
Leave it to Summer to start the day out with a smile.

We all got some sleep last night. Only up and awake twice in the night.
Much needed rest.
Summer woke up thinking about her team.
She has been faithfully watching the Detroit Tigers play win or lose.
Winning is more fun.
It's just the truth.
She brought my hat to me just in case we could traipse down the hill for an adventure.
I told her we can't leave home today.
She says she understands.
That doesn't mean we can't enjoy a fabulous breakfast and some sweet cuddles.
I'll even share my hat so she can represent too.
Good morning, Mastodon.

So happy to see my husband eat scrambled eggs and a piece of toast with no consequences. We celebrate every step forward and dismiss the rest as not worthy of our time and energy.
Done and done.
We can't sit on our laurels though.
Says Summer.
She led the way to the overgrown blueberry patch where we played I get one and you get one.
Summer picked the low hanging fruit.
I took everything else.
It looks to be a sunny warm day.
A good day for Summer to sit in the shade with her pal and watch grandma work.
