I wish I could be a professional pet photographer...

I treated myself to some quality time with the dogs outside at my parents' house. I love trying to capture the perfect shot. It's not easy with the delay on my digital camera, but I'm getting better.

This is a series I'm calling Miles and the Stick.

Figure 3: Miles Triumphs Over Adversity

I guess I'm in the process of triumphing myself...

Today I signed a release to terminate my contract on the condo. It was a painful decision, but I don't believe I had any other choice. The realtor and the seller worked very hard to try and accommodate my family, but I refused to accept the condo board's terms.

In order to live in their community I would have to sign a document stating that should one of my dogs die, I would not replace him. I don't even want to think about being in that situation, but regardless, that should be MY decision.

I am officially NOT a condo person. Therefore, I must be a house person. Now I just need to find the right house, in the right neighborhood, in the right condition, for the right price.

It's daunting, but at least now I know I'm on the right path.

    Yea Sticks!!! I love sticks. There is not much better than a good chew on a stick while lying in the sun in the backyard. My mom tries to stop me. She says that I will get splinters in my poo. I think she's just making that up. (I hope)

    I just found your blog, you are sooo cute! I used to love sticks, now my little brother takes on all the stick chewing responsibilities in our household.

    Awe man, nothing like a good stick.

    Hey - you know what else I like? If you've never had - you gotta try! They're called "PINE CONE" - they're pretty tasty too! So good. I was crusin' around the park one day, and found a whole tree of them! SCORE!

    Also - Give you're human extra licks tonight - he ditched the evil condo empire for good of all dog-kind.

    - Brody
