JULY 16 2018
I DO NOT REMEMBER WHAt THE NAME OF THE  FILM PROJECT WAS-- BUT IT WAS A BIGGIE....MAYBE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC???  
***
BELLA AND GEORGE DID SOME FILMING LAST WEEK! A CREW FROM ENGLAND FLEW OUT AND FILMED BELLA AND GEORGE FOR A COUPLE DAYS FOR A SHOW THAT WILL AIR IN JANUARY. WE BROUGHT THEM UP TO SERVICE DOG PROJECT SO THEY COULD MEET CARLENE AND MEGAN. THEY WERE ABLE TO LEARN HOW THE TRAINING GOES ON AND WHAT BELLA USED TO DO WHEN SHE VOLUNTEERED THEIR BEFORE GEORGE. THEN WE CAME HOME AND BELLA RODE HER BIKE AND DID A LITTLE INTERVIEW. THE NEXT DAY WE DID SOM WALKING AT HOME AND JUST SOME FOOTAGE OF HOME BELLA IS LIKE A NORMAL OR TYPICAL 13 YEAR OLD. HOW SHE LIKES TO RELAX AND WATCH TV OR HANG WITH FRIENDS. WE DROVE UP TO THE LAKE HOUSE IN DEERFIELD AND DID SOME FOOTAGE OF SWIMMING AND SITTING BY THE FIRE. THE CREW WAS AWESOME AND SUPER FRIENDLY. BELLA REALLY LIKED THEM! SHE HOPES NEXT TIME THEY WILL FLY HER TO ENGLAND FOR FILMING. SO THINGS HAVE BEEN GOING GREAT HERE! 
THANKS FOR BEING PATIENT AND STICKING BY US EVEN WHEN I SLACK WITH UPDATES.

IT WOULD BE VERY EASY FOR BELLA TO BE INTIMIDATED BY ALL THIS.
SHE IS NOT.   
**
THEY WERE SUPER NICE GUYS..... JUST 3 GUYS IN A VAN...  BUT THEY HAD SOME CAMERA EQUIPMENT I HAVE NOT SEEN  AROUND BOSTON IN A LONG TIME...  I REMEMBER  LONG AGO  "HIGH OUTPUT" HAD TO FLY A CAMERA FROM CALIFORNIA TO DO SOME SLOW MMOTION WORK  AND THEY HAD TO BUY A SEPARATE SEAT ON THE PLANE FOR IT....   AS A MATTER OF FACT ONLY ONCE BEFORE HAVE I SEEN THE  KIND WHERE YOU CAN RUN ALONGSIDE SOMEONE  AND THE CAMERA KEEPS ITSELF STEADY  UPRIGHT AND FOCUSED.....ON THE SUBJECT-- SORT OF SUPER SEGWAY KIND OF STUFF...
THESE 3 GUYS HAD BOTH KINDS... GRANTED THEY ARE NOW SMALLER THAN THE OLD ONES....... BUT STILL IMPRESSIVE... 
********
PAULA SPENT THE NIGHT INTHE BARN/KENNEL... IT WAS A LITTLE LIKE  THE FIRST NIGHT OF SENDING YOUR KID TO  CAMP..   WHEN SMILLEY WENT DOWN  FOR BED CHECK... SHE WAS INSIDE SLEEPING AND MAYHEM WAS STILL OUTSIDE--- SO SHE BOUGHT MAYHEM UP HERE FOR THE NIGHT--- PENNY SEEMS TO BE DOING VERY WELL DOWN THERE...  PAULA HAS BECOME A BIT ATTACHED TO ME;  I DON'T NEED ONE MORE SHADOW. 
****
"ATTACHED"   .... WE HAD A VERY FUNNY EPISODE YESTERDAY WHEN JERI AND STEVE#4 ARRIVED FROM OHIO WITH  AUDREY AND ONE OF HER FULL GROWN MERLE PUPS... BEAUTIFUL DOG....  VERY ATTACHED TO MOMMA-- WHO IS VERY WHITE WITH A FEW SPOTS-- AS TEHY CAME TO THE BARN AREA THE PUP RAN UP TO Ariot WHO IS ALSO WHITE WITH VERY FEW SPOTS....-- thinking it was momma-- and absolutely came apart screaming and running in great panic- not knowing where to go -- or what happened to her momma...  that one looked like momma ... but sure was not her !!!-  she is not over that yet, aND WILL NOT GO UP TO ARIOT-- TEH EXPRESSION "LIKE SHE SAW A GHOST"  APPLIES HERE.   IF WE WERE NOT FENCED IN SHE WOULD HAVE RUN FOR MILES.....   
***
A PERFECT  DEMO OF A CHILD  CONFUSED  WITHOUT  A  MOMMY.  
FOR TEH MOMMY WHO CAN NOT FIND HER CHILD, THERE IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE ON DR. POL WHERE ONE OF HIS FREISIAN HORSES HAD A COLT  WHO DIED- WITH SOME BLOOD DISCRASIA-  THEY TOOK TH EFOAL AWAY FOR AUTOPSY.. AND THAT MARE RAN THE FENCES FOR 24 HOURS SCREAMING/ CALLING FOR HER CHILD.
VERY INTERESTING.

BUD AND TANNER GOT THE LEXAN 4 X 8 SHEET CUT TO THE PATTERN OF THE NEW DOOR-- AND GOT IT ON THE TRACTOR... AT THE MOMENT  WITHOUT THE  DOOR HANDLE... WHICH CAN BE IMPROVISED WITH A PIECE OF DUGT TPAE OR STRING....-- BUT IT IS AIRCONDITIONED  CAPABLE NOW..

Dear Ms. White

I just saw Doggie Daily and 遠山美樹is my name in Chinese characters. Its To(遠)yama(山)Mi(美)Ki(樹)I have no idea if you can see the typed Chinese characters. For easy translation for each Chinese characters it means far mountain beautiful tree.(which doesn’t make any sense.)  English is becoming more famous and spoken so its becoming more easy to contact foreign people. Well I have no idea about Chinese though… But in my mind I think only watching no sounds or even has sounds dogs or donkeys puts smile on the peoples face and makes them happy.  I really didn’t know if I can wright you about these Chinese Characters mail because it has nothing to do with dogs but I guess I was wrong. I was very moved to see how you wanted to know more.
Hope my mail makes sense.

Regards,
Miki Toyama

 OFTEN... ENGILISH DOESN'T MAKE MUCH SENSE EITHER....
WITH ALL MY SPELLING PROBLEMES, I HAVE TO WONDER HOW A  SPELLING ERROR WOULD HAPPEN IN THE CHINESE FIGURES?


EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I CATCH A TYPO OF    NO..  ON ...NOT.. NOW.. OWN.. BUNCH OF LETTERS WHERE THE MEANING OF THE SENTANCE IS DREADFULLY CHANGED...    BELIEVE IT OR NOT... I TRY AND CORRECT SOME...  IF I HAD TO TYPE IT PERFECTLY  I WOULD NEVER GET IT OUT...
