Today was a river day at the 7 Acre Wood. We had a good rain in the night. The day was warm – in the 70s. The Mom Person had nothing pressing to do. And we dogs all needed baths anyway. So off we went to splash and play! Yay!!
No book review today, but I would like to leave you with some words from A. A. Milne and The House at Pooh Corner. This is an excerpt from Chapter VI In Which Pooh Invents a New Game and Eeyore Joins In:
” By the time it came to the edge of the Forest the stream had grown up, so that it was almost a river, and, being grown-up, it did not run and jump and sparkle along as it used to do when it was younger, but moved more slowly. For it knew now where it was going, and it said to itself, “There is no hurry. We shall get there some day.”
Pooh and Piglet would lie down on the bridge and watch the river … ” and it slipped away very slowly, being in no hurry to get there.”
Pooh is a very wise Bear. Rivers are magical places where you can find your heart and soul.
I hope you had a Good Day today!
I’ll leave you with a little music from Billy Joel – River of Dreams — enjoy!
That looks like so much fun. Love the shaking and rolling pics in particular:-)
That dirt bath is almost the best part of a river day!
You and Momo start my day off right!!
Thanks Ms Rhonda! I like that Momo too!
Charming post. Love the pictures of the dogs romping in the river. Too cold here. I can’t do that with my white poodle.
The water was a bit chilly but didn’t take long to get used to. It’s not usually so nice in February here. This has been an odd winter. Much to my liking! Does your poodle like the mud? i used to know a white poodle who was always finding the best mud holes!
Yes and other’s animal’s @$#%. Especially after he’s been groomed.
hahaha! I too LOVE smelly stuff! I don’t get why you human folks get so upset about that!
This looks such a fun, fun day!
It’s always a good day at the river!
