Doggies

 


Bode is getting big.  For a while there we thought he had stopped growing and would always be a small dog.  And suddenly he has had a growth spurt.  I still do not think he will ever be a giant lab like Brewster or Tank, but he is beginning to look more like a lab than a miniature breed of some sort.

Nora suggested we do a DNA test to figure out exactly what makes Bode's heritage, and last night we sampled his DNA and will send it in today.  They had a check list of what they check for and one breed was 'Village Dog' - it seems they know Alaska dogs!  Not that I particularly care about Bode's pedigree.  I already know what type of dog he is - Bode is Bode!

Gooseneck barnacles - I gather these are a delicacy in some parts of the world

  1. Gooseneck barnacles are delicious! I had some in Spain where they sell for over $100/lb.

    1. Next elk hunt you should come prepared with a recipe and if we manage to camp by the sea at low tide we'll do some barnacle foraging
