Mina's Two Favorite Past-Times

Sleeping in the sun combines Mina's two favorite things: snoozing and sunbathing.

She will get to do more of this soon. I just bought a house! It has a nice big, backyard for the ladies.

Mina will have to wear sunscreen, as the vet recently found some hemangio (minus the sarcoma, and it shall remain that way) on her sun-splotched belly.

I believe Mina will love this new backyard. It is bigger than my parent's yard and way bigger than my apartment's small front yard.

Celeste will like it too, because she can run zoomies and, as a benefit to both dogs, she will have enough room not to run into Mina. She will still do this, because when Celeste plays she believes someone should be playing with her, more specifically, Mina. But once Mina is down, she is out. No amount of body slamming, play bowing, barking Mexican mutt will convince her otherwise.

I will be moving in April. I will not take pictures until the poorly maintained yard is cleaned up and looks presentable. If you have tried and true suggestions on eliminating berry patches, other than nuclear warfare, I'm all ears. Otherwise half my backyard may turn into a glorified patio.
