Riley ....

The beach is Sora's favourite place.

If she gets hot there is always an opportunity for a drink.

And to meet some new friends nearby. This is Riley.

Sunday morning church walk ....

With spring coming its getting brighter in the mornings. On Sunday mornings, while M is at church, Sora gets a rural walk. This morning she walked near S's office, including by the river.

Chilling out, on M's feet .....

Other dogs do this, but Sora not very often.

Forgot to post this one .....

This was taken a week ago, sorry forgot to post it. Sora is highlighted in the early morning sun as she a S were walking in the forest.

Yesterday Sora went up to Rotorua to visit her cousins. On the way we stopped for lunch and Sora had a run around. Getting a photo just of her head is a bit unusual as she moves around all the time.

This morning she was at one of her favourite lakeside tracks. There are always lots of sticks to play with.

The weekend in review ....

Sora has literally tonnes of toys but sometimes she just likes to play with the remains of a long destroyed toy, or perhaps one of S's old socks.

But after a while she gets tired and heads for her bed.

So she has enough energy for the next morning.

Catching up .....

S heard the other day that someone had been checking out Sora's blog and was disappointed at not having any recent updates. Sorry about that. S has been busy and with winter its not so easy to get photos of Sora. This is meant as a bit of a catch up. Sora enjoyed the late autumn and early winter leaves round and about but they have now got and winter is really here. Sora has been getting a little wet at S's office the last couple of weeks but doesn't seem to mind too much - S thinks that is a bat strange. The other day they went for a drive and S caught Sora down by the beach in lovely sunny conditions. We'd write more more Sora is waiting for her "cup of tea", which means a chew treat while S has a real cup of tea. We'll try not to have such a long delay before our next post.
