My new orange ball is so cool. You can put treats in it as well as fetch it.  Mom says I do not need any encouragement.

I like nothing better.

Sometimes Mom has to put the ball up because she said: “Lucy, you just don’t know when to stop.”

Be sure to hydrate in this summer weather.  Heat index in Oklahoma will be up to 103 this afternoon.  You can rest assured I won’t be out there.  Our waterbowl on the porch is always fresh and clean though just in case we have to check our mail.  Brother and I are not very neat drinkers.

Have fun, keep cool, and drink lots of water wherever you are; that goes for your peeps too.  Love ya. ~ Lucy
