Singing the same song

We're having spectacular weather here in Northern California, 80-81º F with cool nights. Bright skies, a few cirrus clouds perhaps or maybe just clear blue.

The dogs went on a play-date last night while their people potlucked. Unfortunately, no one was paying attention and the canines either discovered or created a mud-puddle. I can't speak for the other four, but my four all got baths when we got home -- assembly line fashion, suds and scrub one, send her out for Steve to dry while another one came in. It took forever, these were really dirty dogs, but oh, they look/smell/feel wonderful right now!

I relaxed by attempting, one more time, to draw some leaves and continue on with my green experiments in search for the perfect one.
