Pugs and bugs

Loocie and I spent part of the day at the Akron, Ohio adoptathon working at the Ohio Pug Rescue booth. It was a beautiful day, although a little warm for the pugs. The pugs really know how to work the crowd and hopefully some of the interested people will fill out an application and adopt one of the little darlings now in foster care. As usual, I forgot to take many pictures, but did get this one of our booth.

This is a picture of Vito. Isn't he one handsome boy? He was a rescue pug who was adopted and is now being spoiled rotten. Don't you just love a happy ending?This is a recent picture of my Loocie. She looks so serious. She is not quite four years and has gotten so gray. I guess she's taking after her momma...lol!

The midgies, those annoying little creatures I told you about in an earlier post, are still around and worse than ever. The joys of living near the lake. I did manage to get the grass cut, but working in the flower gardens is impossible. Maybe tomorrow...?

Thanks for stopping by.

Pug hugs ;-) Lauren

What happened to May?

Welcome back. I can’t believe it’s June already, can you?

These little buggers are one of the joys of being so close to Lake Erie (about two blocks)...lol! The closer to the lake you get, the more you have. They’re known as midgies, mayflies, sand flies, lake flies, muffleheads. Whatever you call them, they are annoying! They kind of look like mosquitoes and gather in the grass, flowers and shrubs. Walk by and thouands will swarm you, but thankfully, they don’t bite. At night you can hear the sky buzzing and sometimes see black clouds of them. They say that having so many is a sign that the lake is healthy, but getting any yard work done is impossible. When they are gone, it will be time for the Canadian soldiers, but that is another post!

Please enjoy a few pictures from my yard.

I hope your week is off to a great start.

Until next time. Lauren
