The Ducks vs The Weiner

For the past few days, we've noticed these ducks chillin' in our pool. It's crazy I know, but they are always the SAME ducks. A mallard and a brown one. (What's that saying about birds and flocking together?) Anyway....today I got home from work and let Red (The Weiner) outside. He makes a mad dash for the pool where the ducks are maxin' and relaxin' and starts creeping around. They swim to one end of the pool, he runs over to that end. They swim back, he runs to them. It's a funny, yet SLOW game of cat and mouse (or dog and duck). He finally realizes that there are some feathers floating in the pool- now here's a game folks. In this movie, you'll see Red stretching as far as his little weiner body will let him stretch to smell the feather. I told my grandmother and mom about the ducks and they both mentioned the Red Ryder BB gun I got when I was a little kid. (Think "A Christmas Story", "You'll shoot your eye out!" Although with my husband and his gargantuan knowledge of gun safety, I think shooting an eye out might take more effort than one would think.) Moving on- once the feather chasing game was over, Red decided to go roll around in the grass where the ducks stand and dry off once out of the pool. Rolling around in the grass where ducks have stood (and peed) = bath for Red the Weiner. Good times at the Thomas house these days!
