I love taking Riley to the lake every morning in the summer
time so here's what I came up with..

TROLLING FOR DUCKS, BLACK AND WHITE BEAR, AND SCENES FROM THE GARDEN

Riley has always hated/feared water.. but his desire to eat a duck or a swan

is apparently over-riding those previous water problems.

He's now in the water every single morning...

I found this old picture of Riley and Bear..

I do miss the big boy..
One of 4 sunflowers I had out front for a couple weeks ..
