It just wasnt the same...
REALLY.
So why cant I blog like a normal person, hmmm?
Like CONSISTENTLY?
What the hecks a matta with me???
Well...
We recently received a one year contract bid with the USFS!
Im back in the woods again!
but the sad thing is, without Dexterdog
:(
so it just doesnt seem the same
we have been working & camping in our truck ...
However
- after just one day -
we headed into town
We really needed something to make things right.
Welcome to the team, Ranger!
:)
so to all of you who said that I would someday find another buddy when I was blubbering "oh no, Dexter was my LAAAST dog..."
just stahhhp.
The thundering million
"I told you so 's" thoughts
right now while you are reading this
are
overwhelming my little catholic girl guilt
"Harpo, who is dis dog?" |
But I'll get over it
because
I have help now!
:)

O watr ziet hij er mooi uit.,heel veel plezier samen.
ReplyDeleteOh itt has been fun - he walks so good on a leash, and I have had him loose around the horses a bit - he is a good dog!
Deletexoxo
Oh you needed this and Dexter dog would not think anything of it. You needed this to keep you safe in the wilderness where sometimes you get distracted picking awesome turkey feathers (btw I have some more too, now I need some sheds). Ranger is going to keep you safe and Dexterdog is right there with you so don't worry. Everyone is happy especially me, look at the smile on Rangers face.. Back to work, I love it. Be safe and you Ranger thank you for keeping our Feral woman and Mr. Foresterman safe and smiling. xo Hug B
ReplyDeletewell...in our contract signing meeting, they kept putting emphasis on mountain cats...xoxo
DeleteLOVE the header wish I was there or maybe I am:)xo
ReplyDeleteAre your trees turning yet? I bet they are!
Deletexoxox
Ranger - how cute! I'm glad you found another team mate.
ReplyDeleteHes a shelter dog, and must have been a city dog too - at a year and a half old we are going to work on getting rid of his "doobs" lol and getting him into timber cruiser shape! xoxo
DeleteHow did I miss this...no Dexter dog!? :( That makes me sad. But...Ranger looks quite happy and excited to share in adventures with you! Welcome Ranger!
ReplyDeleteYes - he passed away back in March :( and i just couldnt even think of another dog in my life...until we starting hiking in the woods again for work...:) and so we went to the closest animal shelter! xoxo
Delete{{{hug}}} I'm so sorry to hear about Dexter :-(. But welcome Ranger :-D.
ReplyDeleteI think Dexter would approve :)

Well, I havent been able to post over at your blog lately, but I KNOW you been busy, girl! ;) so you have a dang good excuse not to be "normal" blogging Lol! xoxo
DeleteGW Feral Woman,
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy Ranger is a member of your house. He will work well with you. Be careful out there with the wild cats :-)
Goodness, you are now the fourth person to warn about the mountain cats... i might need another dog... lol!
Deletexox
Welcome Ranger! Oh what adventures you will have!
ReplyDeleteUnderstatement, Terry, understatement... lol
Deletexoxo
Oh, Ranger does look like a good traveling dog! And it looks like he's finding out who the bosses are in that house, too! So glad to see you guys out and about again.
ReplyDeletewe both travel And sleep very well in the truck ;p xoxo
DeleteWelcome Ranger! Handsome fellow- I bet he did work you over. Nice to see that happy dog smile! It looks like that aspen tree had something carved on it. Lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteI think one of those romantic Loggers from years past tried to write "I love ____" on there! lol xox
DeleteRanger! What a perfect name for your dog. He is gorgeous and will be such a great companion. Faith has helped me so much get over my sadness over losing Soldier, who, in spite of all his difficulties was one of my all time favorite dogs. He was just so darned tough and Ranger reminds me a little of him, he is tough, I can tell. Sending love to you my friend. The pictures are gorgeous, just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteOh Inger, Ranger has become such a shadow; he wanted to follow me into the shower! xoxo
DeleteWonderful! Every dog deserves an owner like you!
ReplyDeleteIf dogs could talk....LOL
Deletexox
My goodness! You've got a job, and a new dog-partner. So, aside from the stitches on your leg where the lump came out, things sound pretty good. Happy timber cruising, with Ranger. And Mr. Foresterman, of course.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and Bear hugs!
Not only that, but we are staying in town for the week :) its nice to have a bed to sleep on instead of your truck "bed" after work...LOL
Deletexox
Good for you and good for Ranger. Sweet!
ReplyDeletecongrats on the contract and the new helper.
ReplyDeleteAww hes cute and looks like a good helper dog. Although not a Dexterdog looks like good company none the less. And yay on getting back to work!!!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear that Dexter has sent Ranger to you. Looking forward to hearing more about him. :-)
ReplyDeleteRanger is going to be so happy to have you and Mr. Forester man for parents! I'm happy for you.
ReplyDeleteCindy Bee
Ah man ~ look at his happy face, his doggone smile his, big gorgeous elegant ears
ReplyDeleteand great whalloping tail , beautiful woodsy color
and fabulous canine coat ~ even a bit of a feral wolfie look ..
.and did I mention that doggone smile ...
how could you resist a dog like that !!!!
I have not left you and your blog but lots of computer problems which I can't deal with have left me fairly absent from cyber communication.I have been getting caught up with you...sometimes knowledge is not the best thing....I had to go find the Dexter post and now I am paying for that with a snotty nose and ugly red face....however only you could make a person bawl their eyes out and laugh at the same time.I am truly sorry for your loss of Dexter and for Mr Foresterman's cat.I will be watching for a new post.
