So handsome!

Gorgeous dogs! And doing what we all should do, delighting in the beauty of the day!

Lovie dovies, all of them.

Meanwhile, one of the best home spun ads from Barack is Ralhp STanley's enorsement for the man.

"If the last eight years have shown us anything, it's that it's time for a change."

Bluegrass gospel playing in the background.

"Barack Obama is a loving family man."
He mentions his long marriage to the same woman, devoted fatherhood.

Wonder if McCain will have trophy wife no.3 respond?

...apologies, should have spellchecked...

That endorsement should carry major weight across the heartland. Icons who never forget where they came from and who their biggest fans are. The commercial itself is as genuine an argument as I've heard made for Barack.

Much cuter than Mr. Schmidt!

Thanks Steve. You know you made my day~

Your babies are wonderful! You all make such a beautiful family!

Steve, I have a new addition to my family. Ana. She is a 4 year old Catahola Leopard dog. She joins her brother Burton, who is a 12 year old Bassett Beagle. She was in a bad situation and my friend took her in. My friend couldn't keep her so she now my new daughter! Burton and I love her so much.

I could go on and on writing about her.

What a glorious day that was, Steve.

But with all your doings, I'm surprised you have the time.

When do you sleep?

Lovely!

How does your frequent travel affect your relationship with the dogs?
