A few pictures leading up to the 4th of July parade...

 Mego and I went to the Fourth of July parade that goes down a single street for about 3/4 of a mile.  We wore Hawaiian shirts to go with the library theme of "Oceans of Possibilities".  I also dyed my hair blue for the summer reading program and the parade. Daisy came over the day before to help me dye it.  

   

Early in the day on July 3rd before using hair color.  I let the color set with some plastic hair caps.  You can see the color by itself on the towel.  

After rinsing my hair in cold water where it had a more purple look.  And the final shot of me is outside in bright light. I think it's a great shade of bright blue. I used Poseidon and Periwinkle which I mixed together from Arctic Fox Hair Color.   https://arcticfoxhaircolor.com/

 

We took B and B-B who wore red, white, and blue bandannas as their sole costuming.  I have B on transitional around her nose but I only had that for a narrow stretch of road with cars and people and I wanted them both right by me.  They both wore just traditional slip leash up behind their ears for walking on the parade route and it was in the morning when the road was still cool.

Sunday Randomness #278 Library Fish (Los peces de biblioteca)

Stop by the Tyler branch of the Salt Lake County Library System  and say hi to the fish!

The ongoing saga of B-B and B Part 11 Walk poses 1

 

On a bench at a local school.

In front of a big pine tree.

B's an old pro at posing on rocks-we don't even need to prompt her-she just jumps up on her own, balancing like the little mountain goat dog she is.

I had to take the picture of B from afar because he hasn't mastered staying in the pose position on the rock.  He sees someone come closer and immediately jumps down, wanting to greet that person.  But at least he's learning to climb onto the rocks.  At first he was very hesitant and would only walk around the rocks.  It took a lot of treats and praise to get him up on top.

The ongoing saga of B-B and B Part 10 in which B-B battles a box

I'd thrown a treat in the cereal box and B-B was trying to get it.  Sweet B-B, we love you even when we're laughing at your antics!
