Damn my tent stinks ..the Gold Digger, Donkey D and Snowcaine are ripe and pungent. My carbon filter doesn't totally kill the smell and if you walk by my exhaust you are liable to get a contact high. There is also enough frost in my tent to start my own cold spell.

Sounds like a great place to live.....used to be quiet and peaceful here but urban sprawl has ruined that.You may indeed.
A little town called Wilderness in the heart of the Garden Route, about 400km from CT (east coast) and thankfully still relatively unspoilt, who knows for how much longer.
So it's Indian Ocean with water temp averaging around 22deg C which is perfectly refreshing in summer. Plenty of dolphin and whale activity this AM.
The area is blessed with an abundance of natural forests and much of it is also a conservation area.
I'm crazy about the area - Mrs Afr says I have a personality change when we're up here

No more thongs at the beach? I'd wear those scars like a lifer wears his hash marks.
I got a visit from my old friend this morning too. I gotta remember to drink more water at bedtime.
Pute, according to the weather nerds, you're looking to get clobbered. It's heading my way next. The plow is definitely getting installed on the JKU.

Already cold and blustery. Wind disgusting to about 30 mph and the leaves are flying. Supposed to go fishing tomorrow...... I suspect that's not going to happen. Son-in-law is picking me up in 30 minutes to go to Cabela's to buy more fishing crap. Don't know why he's got everything from the Cotton eye Joe to the hell if I know.

I just finished giving both of the dogs their bath. The older dutch gets the more he resists but still lets me bathe him. Ivan on the other hand is good as long as he is on the lead but as soon as I let him go he was trying to run underneath Dutch and running in circles in the typical passive submissive puppy role that he plays. He was really getting on my nerves and out of anger I called him Pute. when he gets wound up he is quite the handful and when he got loose after he got his bath he was every bit of a handful. I thought dutch was going to thrash him but it was mostly vocal anger and not physical…

I know boo. My Maryjane smashes in to my old BB all the time. BB has the just right discipline bark with just enough teeth to settler her down but she forgets about it after a while and does it again. My BB could take her out easily but is so patient with her in a mom voice way… I usually let them out in the yard separately so BB can have some peace going pee. When they are out together, MJ races around BB burning up that puppy energy. We are trying to teach her not to jump on BB or us or anyone but that will be the last thing she will learn I’m sure.

You should be flattered…
Subbie , I fear that Dutch might use more teeth than bark one day and it wouldn’t take much for him as fierce as he is.Ivan is smart enough to roll over on his back which signals dutch to leave him alone, but as soon as he gets up he’s back after him again. That usually goes on for a few seconds and then it’s resolved…

Yep here too but I don’t like her body slamming my old BB. She’s responding some when I say no jump now so maybe between BB and me and of course her learning when to stop we will get thru it. I still worry tho that my BB may give her a hard bite and hurt her but also know dogs have a way of working it out. You know how they get that sudden burst of puppy energy and run around 50 mph, I think sometimes my Maryjane will be going down hard one day doing that to close to BBYou should be flattered…

That’s exactly what Ivan is doing is bodyslamming Dutch out of excitement. They’re working it out well but I have to intercede when I’m close by. Ivan is a little food thief. If dutch walks away from part of his meal Ivan is down on it like white on rice. We’re working it out slowly… Ivan has a great appetite for squirrels

So here I am on a Sunday night. Broncos are now 2 and five and I am editing posts.
Sound like a slow Sunday evening just the kind I like

I noticed...clean up on aisle 5...
Maryjane is just discovering squirrels. The other morning one fell out of the tree right in front of maryjane. I think it broke its leg as it was having trouble crawling away and couldn’t climb. She didn’t know what to do with it just kept jumping all around it. My dog BB would have known that was a gift sent from dog heaven. She’s always been to slow to catch a squirrel and would have loved that opportunity. Both dogs were off leash as we let them run a bit if no kids are in the park.
