I do hope photos of Meg's Seaside adventure will soon materialize on the Meg page. She's far more interesting than paris Hilton and has better sense too. I bet Paris Hilton would have jumped in the drink and gotten eaten by a sea monster.

Poor widdle tired doggie.

My Alsatian just came back from a huge walkies with his daddy and has gone and jumped on the bed for a nap. He's quite the bed-hog these days. He's gotten back into the habit of lounging on the bed - probably to escape the heat. We have camouflage netting over the windows to the bedroom which eliminates 40% of Infrared rays and as a result, that room is a bout 15 Degrees cooler than every other room in the house even without any fans or airconditioning. We have to keep an old blanket on top of the bed now that Puppers has decided to make it his day-retreat. I don't blame him, it's much nicer there during the heat of the day.

BTW - I highly recommend the camouflage netting (it's black, you can see out but not in) as a cost-effective heat-beating technique. It can be purchases at most Garden Supply stores. You just trim it to fit the window and nail or staple it to the frame. You can roll it up and tie it when you want more light or heat.
