Toby at Hix Small Cemetery

We went to check out the flowers carpeting the field that the Hix Small Cemetery is located in, back in the forest. What a gorgeous sight, and Toby certainly enhanced the beauty of the area;-)
Here he is guarding the car while I took some close-up shots of the flowers. He is a very patient boy.

Trouble came to visit...and that's a good thing!

 We were graced by the presence of Trouble today. Yay! This really made our weekend complete and joyful...
There is nothing like a bit of Trouble to brighten our day;-)

Toby's Pandemic Play Date with Dennis and Veronica

 Oh my, oh my... What a treat! Veronica was on her way to the grocery store when she stopped by for a visit at the spur of the moment.
She had Dennis with her, so they came into the backyard for some physical distancing socialization.
We couldn't be happier. And, Toby was beside himself with joy. Do you see that big grin on his face? He was in pup heaven!
You see, Toby adores Veronica. His relationship with her is like the one that Lady Flame had with Shannon...pure puppy love...
And, Toby gets along quite well with Dennis. They pal around a bit.
But, there isn't much social interaction as Toby cannot see Dennis. Dennis' presence is good for Toby, though. And, Dennis needed some "guy time."
We haven't seen Veronica and Dennis since March 1st, so it was nice to be able to photograph this big boy. Here he had his head up and was sniffing the air.
I brought a magnolia flower down to his level and he seemed to enjoy taking in its scent, and possibly a bit of a taste as I think I see a tiny section of his tongue sticking out:-)
To know Dennis, is to love Dennis...
Now, back to Toby's love affair with Veronica...He was sooo excited!
He just had to lick her face ...
And, then he wanted to be pet. I think he was channeling Lady Flame here as this is what she would do with Shannon.
Toby just couldn't get enough of one of the loves of his life. He kept getting closer and closer to Veronica, and I think he would have stayed that way for hours, if she had let him. He was soooo content. Getting a bit teary-eyed here...
