Looking for green

MY Mom REALLY misses the green in winter so when ever we go to the park she is always on the lookout for a splash of it somewhere.

This time of year the only bit she finds is pine trees and the moss.  Now as much as we HATE sitting for the flashy beast we kinda don't mind sitting on the moss as it soft and doesn't feel as cold on our butts as the ground.

I must admit I am surprised the Dweeb hasn't tried chomping on it though.....during summer he could barely walk past a single plant without taking a nibble on it. Mom says he was a grazing COW-spotdog! She was constantly worried he was going to poison himself but as we can plainly see he is still here.....as dweebish as ever. He didn't even make himself sick once and believe me - he tried EVERY plant he walked past.

We even went over and checked out our favorite Mossy Knoll. This is what it looked like in October.  Mom said it was our own hidden little grotto.....and now in December.....well at least the moss is still there. Mom says she can't wait for spring to arrive. And yes - even though we love snow we are thankful not to have any :)

  1. The moss looks pretty cool! Glad you still find some green in this time. We have plenty of it, may be we can send you some.

    I love grazing too! Mom always says I'm a vegetarian. What's a vegetarian? But I love meat, ham, cheese ...etc too.

  3. Only green we have is the evergreen trees around our house and even they are covered with snow. Our whole world is white and we would like any other colour (Lady even misses brown when it is so white!)

  12. We KNOW how your mom feels about missing the GREEN right now.. BUTT THINK BACK..to yesterday' post about the Canada Geese... their POOPS are GREEN... You could take her to one of their areas.. and Point out the POOPS there. THAT would cheer her up a LOT, don't you think?

  15. You two do look very beautiful sitting on that green moss. But we do love our snow and are so excited that we might actually be getting some tomorrow night. We will try to keep it all here so you don't have worry about more snow:)
