Harley after grooming

My dog, Harley was groomed yesterday so I thought I’d take a few pictures to commemorate the occasion. Doesn’t he look nice? Above: He likes to lie at the very edge of the balcony, contemplating what’s going on in the meadow. He loves to bark at the deer, but the deer strategy works very well. If they don’t move he doesn’t seem to see them.

We’d just come back from a walk so I guess he was a bit sleepy

Nap Time.

On waking his usual routine is to shake and/or stretch. This is a shake in progress

Moonbean Café

Moonbean Café, Briarcliff Manor, NY. A quaint old house with a pleasant porch and garden. It’s one of my favorite places to sit, read and watch the world go by. I’ve posted the odd picture in the past, but I’m posting some more because I’ve recently heard the it will soon be gone – at least in its present form. Apparently local laws have changed and it’s now possible for property owners to locate apartments above commercial spaces. So the present building will have to go. The owner plans to demolish the building and construct a new, taller building that will include a commercial space on the ground floor and apartments above. The new building will include space for a new Moonbeam Café, but somehow it won’t be the same.
