Dog day dreams

I was involved in the autumn ritual of raking leaves this weekend. The trees live in our neighbor's yard, but the foliage falls in our yard. Kelly had a different idea of what the piles of leaves should be used for. At first I thought she was digging after some sort of vermin scurrying through the leaves. But once she dug the depression, she did that spinning in a circle maneuver all dogs do right before forming a nest. She sat quite comfortably for some time watching what I was doing.
