Samantha & Bear have a favorite game they played out in the bogs. There is a lagoon where
some leftover 2 x 6's are lying around on the shore. The dogs have taken it upon themselves
to be the 2 x 6 police. During every walk we must stop at this lagoon and try to drown or
otherwise "kill" the 2 x 6's. This particular day, Jan 3, 1998, it was pretty frigid out and
they played with the 2 x 6's for over 45 minutes. The 2 x 6's are approximately 5 to 6' long
and quite heavy. They are used to repair the flood gates for the lagoons, so the water can be
emptied or the lagoons filled during cranberry picking season.
There are 4 pictures on this page and the Photo Album above - please be patient while they all load!
Here you can see how beat up this 2 x 6 is!
Bear thinks he's a real hot-shot!
Wadda 'ya mean…we gotta go home?
2 x 6 tug-o-war!
