“What do you mean, say I look like a dork!”
“Not only do you look like a dork! You look like a dorky duck!”
“Well! I never! Come on, Donald, we don’t have to listen to this lowly teenager insult us!”
“That’s obvious, given they have no ducklings!”

“Make a skedaddle paddle for the bank boys, there a paparazzo pointing a bazooka at us!”
Maybe the paparazo is not as much of a threat as they thought.

The Long Way Home
Dawn
Our walk at dawn, a sniff and pee for Jake, took much longer than normal this morning because of colors, critters, and a different route home that introduced Jake to an overwhelming variety of new smells and tumbleweeds to pee on.

Ducks In The Mist
Dawn
Wet dog at dawn
Jake and I went out at daybreak to open the irrigation gate. While I was cleaning out the ditches as the water flowed in, Jake got all wet romping around in the cool early morning wetness. There was enough rain up north over the past week to raise the water level in the river enough to irrigate.
Sunflower: “Jake! You are such a silly dog!’
Ducks in the mist
After I got all the leaves out of the ditches, Jake and I went on a walk to the river and saw ducks in the mist.
More ducks in the mist

Jake was worn out after romping around, getting all wet, and watering all the tumbleweeds on the way to and from the river.
