A break in the rain

It FINALLY started to rain, just when we thought Wet Winter Willy had passed us on by. The garden (and our reservoirs!) certainly needed it.

The pugs are not so much fans of the rain. Deedee uses it as incentive to do her outside business in record speed. Cleo likes to pretend that she doesn't need to go at all, not really, can't she just come back inside? Sasha, on the other hand, is the only pug that doesn't seem to notice.

This morning saw a small hiatus in the rain. Cleo and Deedee took the opportunity to bask in the sun.

Sasha saw there was a good thing going on, and came over to get some fur-warming action.

Deedee seems very happy to see Sasha

Somehow the pugs managed to position themselves optimally -- 1) for maximum sun exposure,

and 2) for maximum body contact.
