Nico’s enjoying the stretch of warm, sunny weather.

Nico likes to survey his domain from the top of this rock.

As Shelly and I worked outside today, Nico was snoozing all over the yard.

Nico cooled off this afternoon in Lower Saranac Lake.

Nico gets extra excited when I arrive home past his dinner time.

This is Nico’s regal pose.

I found this face among the ferns.

All of Nico’s friends are gone after the holiday weekend, and he’s one exhausted little pup.

Nico has had an action-packed weekend with visitors and adventures almost every day.

The last three days have been action-packed for Nico.

Our house was bustling with activity today.

Our walks through the forest now include swims through the lake. Nico is one happy pup.

Nico is getting ready for a bunch of visitors this weekend.

I really want to commission someone to make a lawn statue of Nico.

The black flies are particularly bad in our yard this year.

I often wonder if Nico closes his eyes to enhance his sense of smell.

We’ve had a busy weekend doing chores in the yard and being out on the boat.

Nico was ecstatic when he saw his favorite toy in the boat.

Nico patiently waiting for me to play with him after dinner.

Nico has mastered politely reminding me that it’s past his dinner time.
