Joie de Vivre

Meet Milo! He's one of the most enthusiastic foxies you could ever meet - full of the joy of life. Wikipedia describes Joie de Vivre as 'an exultation of spirit'. Milo has it in bulk. I planned to have him right in the sun, of course. LOL  I often meet him and his owner down on the beach. I used to have a wee foxie, the joy of my life! I think that they really are the loveliest dogs around (am I biased maybe?)
I know I promised no more pics of the crane etcetera - it just happened to slide into this image, all of it's own accord. Ignore it!!!

Thank you so much everyone for your wonderfully enthusiastic response to yesterday's Sunrise over Godley Head! I was thrilled that so many of you liked it enough to send it up into Popular. And, Flying's entry ended up No.1. Isn't that fantastic.
