I Like Thursday # 106

Welcome to this week's list of likes. I may not like temps in the 90's but I love the spectacular cloud shows here in Colorado! This stunned us one evening as we left Target!
I like that my flowers are coming back to life, and the shape of this awesome white flower
each little stem has 5 small petals all on one side, which makes me want to stop everything and go make a quilt like this

Our neighborhood had a Doggie Day at the pool just before shutting down for the winter
the ambassador, wearing a cow hat!!!
Baby Milo couldn't go as his ears aren't great yet but we went to interview potential playmates for him.
this boy, Archer is one of Milo's mates, and enjoyed a swim with his man while his new sister barked from the pool side
 Some dogs preferred wading in the baby pool

This portable doggie spa was there to give post swim baths. The HOA gave three lucky dogs a gift certificate. ALL the people were hoping to win!

Our coffee maker gave up the ghost Saturday, yikes! We went on the Great American Hunt for a RED COFFEE MAKER. 5 stores later, the worker at Lowes suggested Target.


He went on to share that he has ALL red kitchen appliances, most kitchen aid brand, including all his pots and pans!
I love the fact that he didn't just answer my question (btw Lowes does not carry coffee makers now) but went on to tell me about his life and kitchen!!! Connections...

We found one at Target, yea! and it's even prettier than our old one and seems to do a better job.


Saw this in a shop in Idaho Springs

Had to share the weekly flamingo sighting
I did a travelogue post look HERE !











while looking for the coffee pot in Bed Bath and Beyond, I found this outdoor tablecloth on sale for $3 with another 50% off that! Score!
and Target had these kids socks to build a costume for Milo for Halloween
And remember...

I enjoyed listening to this album on youtube this week. Old jazz standards with a fresh twist by Sting

Milo's Moments
Hi peeps! Hope you had a  fun week
Lookie at me being good...look fast!
 I have been more quieter than normal, Mama wonders if I'm growing up until I get the 10 o'clock crazies every night! 
I liked going with Mama and Daddy for a "rideinnacar" last weekend.
 I saw and smelled a lot of new things. I shopped but didn't want anything. I waited outside some stores, and showed "enormous poodle patience!"  which is not easy ! I deserve a cookie!

(ed. note: yes, lots of patience til he began his siren song to tell me he was outside and I was inside and that was not acceptable )

I met a lot of fine dogs like this girl who just moved down the mountain 
 
I said, I love your snowy white hair, and she said I looked like a lot of fun!

(Ed. note: they moved "down" to Idaho Springs that's over 6000 feet above sea level!)
We would have run all the way down the street if only our peeps let go those stupid tethers!
Note the Enormous Poodle Stride here!
 Haha, I stretched Daddy's arm and gave him a big workout! 
I admit, I like an afternoon cocktail as much as the next poodle, especially on the back porch with my bowl on the step, or as I see it, my throne. 

That's it, please visit these nice people also keeping track of things they liked this week. If you want to join us let mama know and she'll put in your link too!

  2. Hi LeeAnna! That sky is gorgeous. I have been enjoying our sunsets lately - I need to take a photo! The dog pool day sounds so much fun. Too bad Milo couldn't enjoy it. Is that pool near your house, and you can use it during the season? I'd be in it every day. ~smile~ Roseanne

  3. Great likes! We love Target for our red appliances (got our microwave there). Good to know they have red coffee makers too! Milo is so handsome, his hair is still so black! I'm a little envious everyone thinks Scout is an old dog until she starts hopping around! Have a wonderful day!

  4. Milo just cracks me up! Lovely sunset and coffee maker - it's all about color. A pool in Sioux Falls does the doggie day at the end of the season too and I know my daughter took her previous dog to swim in past years. Great idea!

  6. Sounds like you are starting to like living in Colorado. Wait for fall, it will come and will be glorious. Not the colors of back east, but the aspen are beautiful! We are heading to Grand Junction the first part of October to see family. Haven't been that direction for several years. I grew up over there. Hugs, Sharon

  7. I'm surprised you didn't get that flamingo planter-gorgeous. I also like those red appliances- just haven't purchased many yet. Love me some STING. Enjoy those clouds girl!

  8. Fun that you guys went to doggie day at the pool! I'd never heard of that, but just last week my mom mentioned that her city pool does it too. Sadly we'd missed it but it's a cool idea. And your sky pictures are gorgeous. I'm sorry it's still so hot there. It's been cooler here this week, but still very humid. I live in fear of the late summer which I know will come back in a week or so with high temps again....

  9. Beautiful sunset photo! We've seen some pretty ones lately, too. I love anything red, so your red coffee maker is perfect! The dogs at the pool day looks like fun!

  14. Doggie day at the pool sounds like the best idea :) Sweet for the dogs and I hope you both made some new friends. Thanks for linking up today and enjoy your weekend.

  15. I think I need red appliances, too. We need a new iced tea maker. Coffee maker will probably be the next thing to go.
    Love, love the flamingo pot. Idaho Springs is great for gift shopping. Glad you're out having fun!

  16. I so enjoy your Milo moments and wish Cabo and Milo could be play pals. I giggled at the flamingo, and our town also has an end-of-summer dog party at one of the public pools. Cabo is getting over an "eye thing" so we're trying to clear that up for the next ten days. Hope your weekend is wonderful.

  18. ...Sunday they say that it will 87F, that insane. I'm glad to hear that global warming is fake news, if it was real it might be HOTTER! Everyone needs a nice flamingo! Thanks for the Sting.

  27. That's too cute the dog day at the pool, I wish we could do something like that around here! Looks like even the humans had fun.

  28. What a cool idea to have a doggie day at the pool! We have been nursing our coffee maker along - we think that the lime in our water here is coating the inside, making it run much s-l-o-w-e-r. I think it might be time to buy a back up just in case! And I'll go to Target too if it means sunsets like that!
