A Snipe?!

My kind of day, slept in and then headed off on an adventure. Destination: Apple's Genius Bar. The new iPad2 was having a brain-app-update "1004" malfunction. And I thought it was user error, not this time. Mom had an appointment at 11 am, an hour before the store opened. The store was packed, to crowded for a picture posing.

But there is one picture Mom really wanted to take of me...the picture didn't happen, but would have been great if it did. Hehee. snort.... here it goes...

While the tech was fixing the ipad's app-brain, Mom spotted Mack Brown, head football coach of University of Texas, sitting at the next table. He was dressed in all black, with his posse surrounding him. Mom joked with the Genius dude about having Coach hold me for a photo op. Can you imagine what his black shirt would have looked like after a photo op with a Pug?! Hehee snort!

We stopped past Dutch's favorite pink store, Anthropologie. Unfortunately, we were to early, they hadn't opened yet. Instead I settled for posing in a niche in front of the store. This store is definitely on my list to visit.

Just as we were heading back to the 4 Runner, there it was.... Could it be the elusive Snipe? Um mm. Look at the size of it's toes and it's shadow! I ran over to it and quickly tied my leash to its ankle so it wouldn't get away. But I think I'm going to need a bigger burlap bag along with some back up from my puggie friends to wrangle this one.

  1. Hey Suki,
    You are so brave! I'm kinda scared of that huge foot your tied up to...and woe, that shadow is SCARY! But for you, I'll help in any way I can. Mom, step on it to Austin!
    Love,
    Payton
    PS. Too bad you weren't able to get some Apple pics, but that just means you have an excuse to get your mom to take you back there again!

  5. Hi Payton,
    You have my Mom laughing. The Apple store is fun, but it's not as cool as the one Pug has been to, no glass staircase.

    Hugs,
    Suki

  6. Hi Gracie,
    I'm practicing for when we go to the Garden. The Garden has a dinosaur. I thought you might want to take home as a souvenir. Hehee.

    Don't worry, I will protect you.

    Hugs,
    Suki

  7. Hi Minnie,

    As the old saying goes "things in Texas are bigger", I think this is true on this creature.

    To bad we don't live closer, we could go shopping together!

    Hugs,
    Suki

  8. Hi Frank,

    That's funny that you would pee-pee on it's toe, way to show it who's boss! Oh no, you ate the shuffle? Oh so not good.

    Hugs,
    Suki

  9. That sure looks scary but if my boys were there they would just pee on it! Too bad you didn't get the picture - then Mack Brown could have taken a little bit of you home with him! LOL!!!
