Bird Dogs - Health Matters - Canine Heat Stroke

A large, raw-boned, muscular pointer was cruising across a sea of sage in search of the scent of the greater sage grouse with a spectacular view of the Sawtooth Mountains of southern Idaho in the backdrop. The sun was mid-sky, and the dew was dissipating as the pointer cast farther and faster across the landscape.

Day's End - IN PRAISE OF FENCEROWS

Driving north along the Hudson River, I gazed at a pastoral autumn scene: sere fields of faded yellow harvested corn, stubbly and broken amongst the clods of black earth, almost smooth from my vantage point. Spiky brown veins of wild growth marked barriers between plots. Occasionally, the gray bones of a mature oak rose among the brown shrubs to stand over the yellow fields. A sentry, keeping silent watch as white frost crystals slowly melted into invisibility.

Pages Past - An Outdoor Journal

In a world of the non-stop barrage of political sound bites, the modern news cycle that used to be days in length now seems to be updated every few minutes whether we need it or not. I am old enough to remember when our country's leaders were not media celebrities but statesmen that our nation held in esteem, even if we disagreed with their point of view. Recently, while allowing my dogs to stretch their legs on a warm evening, dusk brewing on the horizon, my mind retreated to a similar evening in my boyhood, July 15, 1979.

We all know in Florida it is too often a battle of not enough water so can't ride areas or they are closed or too much water and areas and/or boat ramps are closed. Well after two back-to-back hurricanes (Helene and Milton), there is certainly no shortage of water.
