Sunday Morning Dawg

It's the heat of June in Louisiana, and the dog is enjoying the shade as much as any living thing.  Several years ago, Milady planted a gardenia in the side yard and this year, it has bloomed spectacularly.  The dog likes hanging out near that bush, maybe because the smell is so fragrant, maybe because of the shade.  Whatever the reason, when we go to the side yard, he bee-lines it for the gardenia, which is especially laden this month.

Take the dog's advice.  Get outside, brave the heat, and smell the flowers.
