A day in the life of us....: Baby Bear and Checkerooo Pictures

You know you are in Kodiak when....

When traffic reports are replaced by the FISHING REPORTS
The water on the floor mat in your car is frozen
You automatically remove your boots when entering someone's home
You use flat-rate priority mail boxes more than envelopes
In Winter, you know who is taking their Vitamin D and who isn't
If you don't already have auto-start on your vehicle, you wish you had it
You know what a Coastie is, and it doesn't mean you live near the beach
You know what Xtra Tuffs are, and you have some
You have to do the Kodiak Stomp before entering a store
Just because you have a ticket to fly, doesn't mean you will actually leave that day--"weather permitting"
It's cheaper to buy DVD's than to have cable TV
Store clerks actually wish you a "Merry Christmas"
You hear people complain about having to drive "all the way to the other side of town" (10 minutes)
Traffic congestion is 3 cars at an intersection
Your car doesn't have a chance to warm up before you arrive at work
When looking out the window is more reliable than the weather forecast
You go to work, church, and shop with the same people
Driving a rusty car is "no big deal"

I had a camera moment today with two of our dogs, Bear and Checkers.

I took a few pictures of Bear, and each time he ended up with one yellow eye and one green eye. Weirdest thing.

One yellow, one green-eyed, fluffy-white people eater.... or somethin' like that.

His hair is all fluffy and thick for winter, his facial profile is interesting

There's that yellow/green eye thing again....

Bear had too much of the camera flash, squinting eyes

Checkers is a patient, loyal dog--always has been.

Figures, Checkers goes for his nuts while I'm taken a picture (by the way, they were removed 10 years ago--I guess he still misses them)

Always attentive to noises in the house, good watch dogs

If dogs could talk...that would be interesing....

Oh and how about "bedroom eyes" for the penultimate picture, since we're traveling down the dirty road? lol; January 21, 2009 at 5:19 PM
