  1. This was Missy’s favorite spot. Never did find its charms. #Rocky #greyhounds

  2. I joined Lord Nick and Missy in the Ghost Patrol today. Vet and guardian didn’t want me drowning in my own blood as lung cancer tumors had been hemorrhaging last night. 20 months post diagnosis is pretty amazing.

    In Ghost Patrol we always have our youth and full superpowers. #Rocky #greyhounds

  3. I had a rough night Tuesday overnight into Wednesday morning. I spent several hours coughing and wretching. I tossed up several palm-sized patches of blood as lung tumors hemoraged. I was finally able to settle down just now. #greyhounds #Rocky This summer I’ve been less and less able to be my old self. Quiet rest lasted about 10 minutes before the wretching and panting resumed. I’m panting …

  4. I’ve been sleeping a lot but rallied for brekkie at tea time and tea an hour later. #Greyhounds #Rocky

  5. Isn't my staff smart? Throw rug matting on the steps so I can come up by myself. I'm starting to get the hang of it.

    Eating more and getting stronger. Gait improved some. Still want a reassuring tug on my luggage handle.

    Points off for sloppy work though.

  6. Dismal Wrangler is teaching me to "walk the plank”

    We have a load-up ramp designed for going up porch steps. Rocky balks at anything not on the level. So I’m having him walk the plank on the ground so he can get the idea of it being under foot and that feet need to stay on it.

    He did three repetitions and said "enough" in the usual greyhound short attention span way. Will keep at it on the level for a while.

  7. Ahoy, Tea People — skip the Sunday roast. It’s too bloody hot here. Good day to make a batch of home made ice cream under the live oaks. I’m in the shade of our’n. #Rocky #greyhounds

    Hanging out on Cup of Tea for a change. Hope all are well and continental heat dome has eased.

  8. Now it is official. #NWSWakefieldVA weather boffins write “Heat returns today” , that is, Wednesday. And it has. 94 here at Dismal Manor with dew point remaining at 24C. 10 mm rain from overnight rains. #Greyhounds shelter in indoor air con.

  9. #NWSWakefieldVA advises that weather omens are favorable to open Camp Dismal for day camp operations. Fields are open for chariot racing, swordplay practice, archery and javelin. And Beach Dismal is open for paddling and war canoe racing.

    Camp Staff notes that the air is somewhat chewy but expects a sea breeze will deal with the smoke by midmorning. #Greyhounds are sheltering in place until the smoke clears.
