Scout, inside out

Scout will try and be outside in any weather:

“No no, that’s not rain! Maybe next door is watering the garden?”

She’s like a cricket fan in an English summer:

“Play on, play on – it’s clearing…”

Sometimes rain does stop play:

“Not a word, OldPlaidCamper, not a word, ok?”

Ok. But look:

I’m saying nothing…
Dreaming of blue skies and sunny days

Hey, Scout, look! Dreams do come true:

Dreamy
“Carry on with whatever, PC – I’m fine right here!”

Thanks for reading, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend! (We’ll spend ours trying to persuade Scout to leave the deck…)

I am a would be outdoorsman - that is if I had more time, skills and knowledge. When I can, I love being outdoors, just camping, hiking, snowboarding, xc skiing, snowshoeing, paddling a canoe or trying something new. What I lack in ability, I make up for in enthusiasm and having a go. I'd never really survive for long out there in the wild, but I enjoy pretending I could if I had to...

  1. Seems like Scout is made of sugar. Perhaps needs you to hold an umbrella. Lol happy Friday have a great weekend

  3. Oh boy do I ever know how Scout feels, I’m sure you and Mrs. PC do, too. We like to be outside no matter what. Fun post, my friend, put a smile on my face.

  4. Love seeing Scout enjoying her new deck and the wonderful photo of her dreaming of blue skies!! It looks like having you guys around full time might be interfering with her naps! Harper’s on full alert when she’s on the deck waiting for her favorite squirrels, peacock or turkey to go through the yard. It doesn’t look like the wildlife, weather or neighbors are disturbing Scout. Another win for Everton and is it at all possible they can help Man City win the league next weekend?! Enjoy the week and it looks like there’s enough room on the deck for a comfy chair for Scout!🐾🙂

    1. If I’ve got it right, then Spurs need to win today, City lose again on Sunday, then Everton can defeat Arsenal but the Gunners win the league. That works for me! What will actually happen is City win today and Sunday and the other games won’t matter. And Everton still wins… (yeah, right!)
      Scout doesn’t need encouragement – if I turn my back for a second, she’ll jump into a vacant chair! Now if she’d take the seat behind the wheel, things could get interesting…
      I hope your week is off to a good start, and the playoffs turn out ok. Rangers should do it (what have I said?!) but Bruins really need something special. Dallas look safe. As for Oilers vs. the unnamed lot – who cares?!

    1. We’re getting the full spring mix, and with the welcome sun and warmth included, that’s fine for all of us. One or two new beers, a tent excursion next week (whatever the weather) so all is pretty bright up this way!
      Thanks, Walt, and I hope all is well with you!
