I am pleased to report that Gail appears to have learnt the error of her ways, and two days after the 'winter clothing left in cupboard' debacle we returned to more or less the same spot, this time with our friends M and J, and once again experienced adverse weather conditions, but here you see I was appropriately clad in my warmest outdoor jacket - cosily fleece-lined with a waterproof shell.
At this point we must congratulate M, the only one brave enough to operate her camera, despite the fierce and bitterly cold wind driving snow across our faces. (I think the humans were a little envious of my protective facial fuzz during this part of the walk.)
Later on, the flurries of snow subsided, the sun emerged, and we found a sheltered spot down in the valley, so I am delighted to present you with the latest in a long line of 'M and J sitting on a log enjoying elevenses with Bertie' photos.
I am confident that this 'Elevenses on a Log' series of pictures (see also post from 12 July 2021) will be thought of in the same category as Monet's water lilies in years to come...
they are very talented to pose for a phot with you.... we had this cold wind too, hard to hold a leash...
ReplyDeleteYou do look very cosy in your smart blue jacket Bertie, and what a sensible thing to wear on such a horrid day.
ReplyDeleteYou were all so brave to endure such conditions, and have the photo to prove it! My human would not have set out, and I must admit I wouldn't want to either!
Oh! - were there some nice treats too?
Love,

You are a smart boy to be wearing your jacket, Bertie!
ReplyDeleteElevenses is the icing on the cake of a lovely walk with friends. Envious, even in the cold!

ReplyDeleteThank DOGs Gail is a quick avid learner. Whew she was a slippery slope heading toward a serious case of demerits. That is one fine winter jumper. I agree the 2 leggers were envious of your fine WFT furs.
Absolutely lovely pose with M&J
Hugs Cecilia
You sure look comfy in that smart coat, Bertie. Maybe a famous painter will turn all your pictures into works of art someday. Then you all will be famous too.

ReplyDelete'M and J sitting on a log enjoying elevenses with Bertie' photos... long may they continue!!! Your jacket is pawfect and just as well it was on, by the sounds of it! February is living up to its recent rep for being the wintery-est of months... now you and Gail snuggle up with the skiing and whichever other of the WOs sports you enjoy! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
Actually Bertie, you are at the top of the list in the water lily genre. Most Beautiful Photo Subject/model. I see you have the perfect spot of sunshine to warm up your pretty blue shell
ReplyDeleteWe were so happy to see Gail made sure you were dressed all snuggly and warm for your recent outing.

PeeEss...We are sure we will see that beautiful piece of artwork in a museum soon!
You look awesome and warm.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice time you had on your chilly walk, and props to your friends for another "log" picture! What a collection of them you must have!
