We do a lot of positive redirection with our sheltie to control her barking reactions to various stimuli.

 

If she hears a dog barking outside my house while I'm in my office it used to be that her first reaction was to bark immediately in response, sometimes in quite a fit of spinning, jumping and excitement. While this is definitely something shelties love todo (bark) it is fairly counterproductive to me being a telecommuter as well as my general sanity.

 

so I always have a tray of treats on my desk and any time I hear a dog bark, doorbell ring or anything else that sets her off I immediately treat and redirect her attention to me. Thankfully I've got to the point where she actually doesn't bark and instead looks to me first to see if she is doing the right thing (and that I'm going to give her a treat for being quiet).

 

It has helped cut down on the 'oh sh*t' moments where she barks so suddenly and loudly that my heart almost stops beating. She also can recover if she does start barking and will come over and sit down next to me awaiting instructions.

 

Here we see her cleaning up the crumbs on the chair-mat in my office after the UPS guy showed up making sure everything is was the way it should be (in her mouth).

Images of Downtown Austin #22

During our long Flickrwalk, we stopped at a bar called Lovejoy's for some beer.

 

All of these images in this series were taken on a Flickrwalk I did with a bunch of friends back in late April. We started on West 6th Street at about 6:30pm. This series will show some bits and pieces of downtown Austin over 6 hour period. It was a long Flickrwalk and we did a broad loop around downtown. The images will be posted, for the most part, in chronological order. They vary quite a bit as we moved throughout the different parts of the city and as the day turned into night.

Es necesario mantener una cierta higiene en las calles del Imperio... Con esta idea, nació la "Patrulla de limpieza"

Sometimes, a person photobombs when taking a photo, so I decided to remove it with an eraser due to some stricter rules regarding submissions on certain sites.

These workers in neck-to-toes hazmat suits, walked up and down the beach, bent over, picking up tiny balls of jelly-like oil, which they deposited in big plastic bags they dragged behind them.

The cleanup crew has arrived to dispose of the dead body... poor gecko.

Another year, another cleanup - and, as always, lots and lots of marine debris.

 

Myself, footsore311 and a couple of friends participated in the Washington Coast Cleanup this past weekend. Despite a weather forecast of rain, rain and more rain we enjoyed spells of clear skies, a lovely sunset, moon sightings and ferocious winds that managed to dry out all our wet gear upon departure yesterday morning.

 

I've been visiting Sand Point since my childhood. I've visited with friends and family. I've visited during all seasons. I've visited during wild storms (on purpose). I've night hiked in. I've night hiked out. When I embarked on my first solo overnighter a couple of years ago, Sand Point proved a fitting destination.

 

This past trip I was thinking about those visits, as well as the places that are nearest and dearest to my heart.

 

Sand Point is certainly one of my favorite places.

 

It is a place where my heart sings.

It is a place I will never tire of visiting.

It is a place I'm deeply thankful for - and as such, it's very rewarding to do my part to keep this treasured place a little bit cleaner.

 

What places are you thankful for? Be it a beach, mountain or forest trail - consider saying "thank you" to your favorite places by picking up garbage during your next visit.

This past weekend myself and three friends participated in the International Coastal Cleanup. We chose to cleanup at Sand Point near Lake Ozette, which has become my go-to destination for cleanup events over the past few years.

 

The trail to Sand Point is in amazing shape - better than I've ever seen it. Our hot and dry summer has reduced water sources around Sand Point to stagnant pools of tea-colored water. This lack of water was certainly a surprise, I've never not seen the creeks flowing out at the coast.

 

While there appeared to be a decrease in debris north of Sand Point, hiking a mile or two south of Sand Point produced the expected amounts of plastics, Styrofoam, rope and more. Cleanup efforts are important, but so to are our day-to-day actions. Reduce, reuse and recycle. Avoid single-use plastics. Educate yourself and others. Get involved.

Massive studio cleanup and closet deconstruction. Yikes!

Second half prep. Should have used sonite wax on the clay, the epoxy sticks very aggressively to it and cleaning was a massive pain

Navy Seaman Recruit Kristina Young hurls a shovelful of snow during the cleanup at the Center for Service Support Detachment barracks after a record-breaking blizzard slammed the U.S. East Coast over the weekend, dumping nearly 30 inches of snow over the Washington, D.C./Baltimore metro area. The CSSD barracks houses sailors who are training in various media and public affairs specialties at the joint-service Defense Information School. Young is enrolled in the Basic Public Affairs Specialist Course. Young and her shipmates spent over eight hours clearing walkways of the hard-packed snow.
