Not much to report here in Oklahoma except hot, humid and mosquitoes.  It is the dog days of summer for sure.  We did receive Pamela Harden’s new book A Winter Wingding.  Mom has read it to us every night.

Lucy

We played out side most mornings: Brother looking for lizards and me -a game of fetch.

Indy

Shady spots are great for barking at the birds.

 Dad has been busy in his workshop.  Look what he is building.  When the wind blows, the Scottie dog’s head nods and tail wags.  Cute, huh?

Have a good weekend out there.  Love ya ~ Indy and Lucy

What’s App?

PhotoToaster, today’s app, has been on Mom’s phone for ages.  She doesn’t use filters often (like never) so had never explored it until the other day.  PhotoToaster has high ratings by the app community and claims to be the top photo editor for the IPhone and Ipad.  The best thing about it: everything is included.  There are no In-App purchases.  All you do is select a picture and start applying filters.  The changes can be subtle or dramatic.  Let’s begin with our original picture.

Lucy

This picture was taken around 11 am but with a simple filter it can be dusk.  Notice the change?

Lucy

See, you get an entirely different feeling.  Of course, within that single filter selection you can make all kinds of adjustments as to exposure and intensity, etc. but ‘nobody’s got time for dat.’ BOL.  Check out this one called Pastel.

Lucy

Whoa, we might like that better than the original.  Some others are named: Energetic, Vivid, Earthy, Road House, Vanity Fair, all light variations.  This is a nice B&W called Silverlight.

Lucy

Backlit is a neat one too. Might be our new fave. 🙂

Lucy

We are giving this app a 4 Paws Up for adjusting the basics.  PhotoToaster offers super simple easy edits using the pre-fab settings or options for more complicated ones.  Love it. ~ Indy and Lucy

We just received our new book by Pamela Harden, A Winter Wingding.

A Winter Wingding

  Terriers, from far and wide, gathered this winter to experience the magic of  Whippety Wood and partake in some friendly competitions of skating, skiing and sledding.  Brother and I took 2nd in skating.Duncan (Lori Glenn)

Our friend Duncan and his Mom Lori enjoyed the stories and gave it a 2 paws up.

A Winter Wingding

We met old friends like our Alaskan girls here and made new as well.  You will love all the adventures.

Lucy

It is a perfect bedtime story book or anytime for grownups, kids and Scotties alike.  You can message Pamela Harden or Whippety Wood on FB and get your copy.  Happy reading. ~ Indy and Lucy

Hot that’s what!  Right now it is 10:30 am and it is already 101.  Mom has to get up early and water.  I, of course, assist.

Lucy

Brother has been obsessed with something under our porch.  Dad thinks it’s birds; Mom says it’s lizards.  Who knows but all he does is run around trying to look through the spaces between the boards. BOL.

Indy

The summer stuff is blooming in the garden.  Crepe myrtles can withstand the Oklahoma extreme summer temps.

Did you try our new app Color Pop or chase some bubbles this week?

Lucy

Think we will just sit and swing then head on in for some AC.  Have a splendid weekend. ~ Indy and Lucy

I love to chase bubbles.  Brother is not too interested right now because he has sighted a bird nest under our porch and it is driving him crazy.

Lucy

Note my quick turn.

Want to do a B&W with a touch of color?  Then Color Pop is your app.

Door County

Oops…Mom didn’t erase at the top of the barn but the photo lends itself well to this sort of application.  Mom says Scotties are a bit harder because of our color so something around us needs to be highlighted.  Enjoy ~ Indy and Lucy

It has been a busy week.  We had a couple of rounds of storms that soaked us with 3 1/4 inches of rain but rain is always welcome during an Oklahoma summer.  The crepe myrtle loves the hot humid weather.

The black eyed Susans do too.

The Virginia Creeper has almost covered the arch.  While a somewhat invasive plant if not contained, it turns beautiful colors in the fall.

Dad built stands for our rain barrels.  They are all currently full from the latest storms.

We also have kitties next door in the nature preserve.  We spotted them a day or two ago.  The Mom likes to take them out for lessons in hunting, tree and fence climbing during the early morning hours.

Next Door Neighbors

I have been giving a Facebook seminar in fetching on our page: The Adventures of Indy and Lucy.  It features the basic fetch positions: Place, Focus, Stance and Replace with tips on successful involvement with your staff.

Lucy

Have a great weekend.  Indy and Lucy

It’s Instagood.  Instagood is an app where you basically select a shape and then find your photo match.  The shapes are varied: collages, states, countries, letters and numbers, nature, zodiac, etc.  We are spotlighting a vacation so we selected Wisconsin since we just visited there in May.

Anderson Dock

This might be our favorite one: Anderson Dock.  Although we really like this one of Peninsula park.

Try it; you’ll like it. It is a great way to enhance a special memory.  ~Indy and Lucy
