A wistful look

Bailey seems to be in the habit of a pre-6am trip out to the garden at the weekend and yet again he was allowed to come back to bed with me. I managed to finish my book before I eventually got up to a much better day than was forecast. 

We walked and then had breakfast and then I got on with some work. The sunny weather persisted after lunch and it was pleasant enough to encourage me to do some gardening - of the fair weather kind as usual. A bit of chopping of things that are brown or unnecessary and it certainly does look better as a result. I didn't stretch to cutting the grass. Bailey joined me and tried to help but had to be shut back in the house when I got the broom out. He likes to attack it. 

I am still really enjoying my new lens - I think it makes Bailey look very handsome (and showing off his very long tongue in the extra) - and it's not long now until it can be used to capture the surfer. Just 6 days and only 4 of those are working ones.
