Good morning Blusky friends

Ruby said “Happy Wednesday”

Winter is here and that means we roll in the snow!

Golden Retriever

Ruby the golden retriever having what can only be described as her personal snow-day masterpiece. She’s sprawled out joyfully in a fluffy white field, nose and whiskers completely dusted in snow, wearing an expression that says, “I regret nothing.” The sun glints off her golden fur.

The snow around her is cratered and tossed like a bakery explosion, proof of an epic roll-fest.

She’s a golden retriever snow angel in action—equal parts athlete, comedian, and connoisseur of mischief.

Best nap after lunch Calendar

MJM Grand @huntnfish8.bsky.social · 17h

2 years ago today Bleu was taking a food coma nap

Had a little fun with the alt description…

#goldenretriever

Three golden retriever puppies lie sprawled in a perfect tableau of post-meal bliss — the unmistakable aftermath of a puppy buffet. Their tiny bellies are round and full, their paws flopped in every direction like soft, furry commas in a sentence that ends with zzzz. One is on his back, legs splayed dramatically as if he’s auditioning for a “Best Nap After Lunch” calendar. Another is nestled close, face buried in a sibling’s fur, utterly content with the world. The third is half-offstage, clearly too sleepy to care about camera angles.

Scattered around them are the relics of puppy civilization — a couple of chew toys and the faint air of triumph. Against the bright blue kiddie-pool wall and soft brown bedding, they look like a trio of tiny explorers who conquered dinner and promptly succumbed to gravity. It’s less a nap and more a food-induced hibernation — the sacred rite of the overfed and adorable.

Puppies sprawl

It’s all about the food!

Bleu bellies up to the bar

Funny thing is he still does this a year later and often falls asleep with his head in the bowl

For #RockinTuesday the beautiful Yellow canyon walls of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

The mineral rich hot water alter the colors of these rocks
#Yellowstone #artyear #wilderness #nayionalparks

The photograph captures a breathtaking view of a deep, rugged canyon carved by a winding river. The steep walls of the canyon are streaked with layers of gold, cream, rust, and pale gray — colors that shimmer in the sunlight and give the rock face a painterly, almost fiery look. The river far below rushes through the narrow gorge, its surface alternating between foamy white rapids and deep green pools as it snakes through the chasm.

On the left foreground, the branches of a pine tree frame the view, their needles tipped with reddish buds, adding a touch of vibrant life against the rocky grandeur. Beyond the canyon rim, the land rises into dense forests of evergreen stretching toward the hazy horizon. The scene radiates both vastness and intimacy — the immensity of geological time revealed through stone, and the quiet pulse of the river still shaping it, day by day.

For #RockinTuesday this beautiful #cutthroat #trout I caught in Rock Creek, Montana

#flyfishing #Montana

The photo shows a freshly caught trout lying on a bed of smooth, multicolored river stones—shades of tan, gray, rose, and soft brown glistening in the sunlight. The fish itself is striking: its body glows with golden-amber hues that deepen toward the tail, speckled with a constellation of dark spots. The delicate blush of rose-pink along its gill and lateral line adds a touch of quiet beauty.

Beneath it rests a fly-fishing rod and reel, the cork handle weathered from use and the line looping loosely around the stones. The reel gleams black and silver with a ring of bright orange line coiled neatly inside. In the corner, part of a wading boot peeks into view, suggesting a successful and likely peaceful day on the water — the kind where the world narrows to the rhythm of the current, the cast, and the quiet satisfaction of a perfect catch.

For #RockinTuesday Ruby is hanging out by my favorite Rock

I’ve laid to rest Sascha, Butter and Biscuits— three of my best friends.. it has a nice seat, 4 young Fir trees, and located in a beautiful meadow on my property..

Had a little fun with the alt text

#artyear

A clever golden retriever she has decided to test her skills as the Queen of Disguise. Peeking out from behind a small Firs and a speckled granite boulder, she’s convinced that her golden fur blends perfectly into the forest scene — despite the bright snow doing her absolutely no favors. Her eyes sparkle, her grin wide, as if whispering, “You can’t see me… I’m totally invisible.”

In the background, Bleu trots through the patchy snow, clearly uninterested in espionage and far more focused on whatever smells amazing just ahead. Together, they’re the perfect comedic duo: Agent Goldie and the Distracted Backup, starring in The Great Snowy Stakeout — a heartwarming, tail-wagging adventure in the art of not blending in at all.
