Wedding Libre

Who I was meant to be!



This about sums it up.  The Bell family wedding that is...



St. Mary's church in downtown Rochester.  A lot like the St. Mary's church in downtown Muskegon.  Too bad they whitewashed the whole inside because it looks like it has an incredible paint job underneath.  



Geva Theatre.  No photos allowed inside of On Golden Pond.  May I say "THE LOONS!  THE LOONS!!!"  I've never seen the movie before so I can't compare.  The theater was a lot nicer than I expected and it was well performed.  I'm no expert on these things, but luckily my wife is and you can ask her opinion about it.



PLEASE SUPPORT THESE PUPPIES and other animals of Lollypop Farm by donating to my page for Barktober Fest 2011 at:  http://lollypop.kintera.org/ba
rktoberfest/mike I'm helping organize the run/walk and will be running around with a bullhorn, air horn, and a starter pistol.  So, fun for the whole family!

Labor Day Weekend

Labor Day Weekend with Tachel!



The best way to babysit is to put the child in a burrito.  She had her first day of school without sparkle pants today



Burritos are only fun until the babysitter ends up in one



LET ME OUT!!!



Here's the other kid we had to babysit this weekend...



Jordan, James, Kraus...


 
The Aquahoop was tested out and next summer it will be amazing!



Oh yeah!  Puppy time!



So much calmer when they get spayed...






I don't know what happened to Dock.  He just seemed to pass out in the cat condo.



I'll leave you to ponder the wolf hat.


As always, I'm asking for your support at Barktober Fest 2011.  I'll be organizing the runners and walkers this year.  I may shoot the pistol to start the race.  So, help me help homeless and abused animals at:  http://lollypop.kintera.org/barktoberfest/mike

Working Like A Dog

DON'T FORGET TO SUPPORT ME AT BARKTOBER FEST 2011 at Egypt Park (right next to Lollypop Farm.  I'll be working the race.  Please visit: http://lollypop.kintera.org/ba​rktoberfest/mike 



Megan and I got to watch Gertie this past weekend and it was apparently the only thing of interest.  Therefore, this blog is dedicated to a Yorkie that took over my life for a few days.



Try as you might, you will never shake free from Megan's grip!

KISS!



Gertie visits Lollypop Farm.  I don't think Gertie has ever seen a cat before.  At least, she didn't act like she knew what a cat was.  This was about as close as she would get.  Otherwise, she would hide under my desk.



Gertie and Neville.  It's not often that Gertie is the big dog in the room



"Stop playing and pee!  I have 'giving season' to prepare for!"



Neville and Gertie's floating head.  



Rough day at work.  Friday couldn't come soon enough.  Good thing it's 5:30...



5:32...


That's it until Labor Day!  Again, if you want to help the animals of the Greater Rochester area, please support me at Barktober Fest 2011 at: http://lollypop.kintera.org/ba​rktoberfest/mike 

Apparently, the Only One In America Not To Feel the Earthquake

PUPPY-MANIA!!!!



The Old Rifle Range Trail in Ellison Park.  In 1933, it was a classy gun club that turned into a nice nature preserve in 1994



The old gazebo overlooking the old, overgrown ranges



Megan trying to see the old grounds.



The wetlands between the Irondequoit creek and bay

Kayak in the wetlands



MEGAN!  



ME!









Crazy mushroom



My new favorite lawn ornament; South Park-ish Uncle Sam



These used cars were not available when I was shopping for a new car...


  
The Summer Red Wings 



Frontier Field



It was military/fireman (or something like that) appreciation night.  Lots of uniforms!



Rachel is the biggest baseball fan in the world!



Saw this in Topps.  I like that the lemon finds itself sour.  



THE FOSTER PUPPIES ARE HERE!  They had to come in to get their checkup with the vet and took over the office.  Poor Dock (the cat).



Poor Dock getting whacked in the face with a tail






The puppy riot was contained and brought back home.  



Dock and Neville can return to normal levels of trouble.
