Welcome to the last Monday of September. We hope you had a ‘pawsitively’ wonderful weekend. We actually managed to combine rescue work with some fun along with a bit of leaf peeping and are looking forward to sharing some scenes on Nature Friday.
But it’s a new week which means we need to start the week out with a smile. Let’s revisit the El Arroyo Restaurant again for one of those life questions the lactose intolerant are wanting to know. What do you think?

Have a happy Monday and a swell week. We’re looking forward to welcoming October…our favorite color.
Live, love, bark! 🐾
Aww, I love the energy in your post! Combining rescue work with fun sounds like a perfect weekend. Just soak up all those autumn vibes for me, will ya? 🍂
Many thanks! And thanks for stopping by-we 💙 visitors!!
Hee, hee, that sign cracked me up! 🤣 Who knew Java Bean could be such a funny greeting? Love the humor around here. Hope October brings even more chuckles like this one! 🤞🏼ngôi sao tốc độ cho Android

Thanks for swinging by-with apologies for the late approval of you nice comment which was buried in the spam folder.
Bwahahahaha! Tails Around the Ranch, you are slaying it with those El Arroyo signs! Love the humor. My garden gnome agrees, he just sent me a text saying Soy Bean is peak comedy. 🤣 Happy Monday to you and Wilson too!injection moulding plastic machine

Glad you liked it. It’s good to enjoy a smile every day!
🤣🤣🤣 Good one!
Glad you enjoyed it and hope it set the tone for the week. #smilesgalore
😊 I hope you have smiles galore this week too!
Thanks, I could definitely use some. it’s been a rough few days.
Aww! 😞 Sorry! Hope it gets better for you. (((Hugs))) 💕
Thanks, I’m sure things will get better, it’s just the ‘getting there’ that will take some time. #takingdeepbreaths 💙
Understand that! I am very well practiced at taking deep breaths when needed. Too bad I can’t hop over and visit with you over some tasty drinks. 😊
Thank you, my friend. Appreciate the gentle thoughts.
Very welcome! 🥰

Soy Milk . . . bahahahahaha!
Happy Monday, on a Tuesday. And thank you again for the wishes.
Glad you enjoyed it and gave you a smile on a smile worthy day. Hope it’s been grand!
It was a nice chill day, thank you.
As for those Yankees, they wasted a great effort by Fried last night. Why do managers insist on handing a starting pitcher’s masterpiece to the bullpen? It drives me nuts. Fried was on a hundred pitches, leave him in!
Glad your day was ‘chill’ but sorry about the Yanks. Let’s just hope they can ‘right the ship’ on the next game. 🤞🏼
They scrapped out a win last night but now they’re going with a pitcher who . . well, it’s a dubious situation. Let’s hope the kid brings the positive side of his talents to tonight. Otherwise I am never, ever going to hear the end of this.
🤞🏼 🤞🏼 🤞🏼
Hmm…..a conundrum…..I guess the answer might be – WHO CARES???? Tee Hee
Huggies, Teddy (and Mom Pam)
Who cares…so long as it makes folks smile, eh? 😻
Thanks for the smile and I love how you consider October to be a color.
Thank you. Yes, October is most definitely a color! Hope it’s as wonderfully color filled week!
Java Bean: “¡Hola, milk! ¡Soy Bean!”
Bwahahahahahaha! Oh Bean, you slay me.
That made me laugh. Thank you! But the taste is totally different and “milk” in Spanish is “leche”.
Glad you got a laugh out of it. Nobody ever said puns were 💯 % accurate. 😆 Happy Monday. Hope you guys are staying safe and dry.
Happy Monday! We’re getting some light rain right now – which I discovered when I was about to take the Zs out to play. Bummer!
Stay safe.
We had a nice streak of cool weather but now we are back in heat and humidity. This up and down is nuts! Have a Grand week!
Oh no, sorry about the heat and humidity returning. It’s been pleasant here and there actually was a nice little shower about a half an hour ago. Hope things start to level out. I just saw where the first first is normally around October 7 here (and first measurable snow date is 10/17. I wouldn’t be heartbroken if that’s the case. Hope you have a good Monday and a great week.
That did make me laugh! #AwwMondays
So glad you enjoyed it. And thank you for swinging by-we 💙 visitors. Sorry we didn’t see it sooner-it was stuck in the spam folder.
Yep, that’s another good one! But all you have to do is taste it… LOL!!
Bwahahahaha! Happy Monday, Xena, Lucy, Chia and mom.
Thanks for the morning chuckle!
So happy it tickled your funny bone. Have a terrific Monday.
Thanks for the chuckle. Have a great week!
So glad you enjoyed today’s chuckle, Dan. Happy Monday.
HA! That is very clever!
Glad you enjoyed it. It made me chortle. Hope it’s been a good Monday, Terry.
Love your painting, Monika. Beautiful colours that really pop!
Those signs are the best.
Happy Monday to you and Wilson!
Thanks, Dale. Seemed time to change the ole header to something a bit more autumnal. Those signs always give me a chuckle and make for a good way to start out the week. Here’s hoping your Monday has been fantastic.
Well… It’s a beauty, tell you what!
They are so great. Love the humour of these guys.
Let’s just say I am so very glad it is OVER! It was one thing after another.
You’re too kind. Yes, the El Arroyo signs (and the signs from local guy, Vince) always make me smile. Yeah, yesterday was a 💩 day for me too. It looks much better in the rear view mirror. Luckily today, we have a clean slate-let’s make the most of it! 🤞🏼
I am not! I speak truth 🙂
They are so cool! And even better that they are where you are.
Oh yes. Today is MUCH better than yesterday!
And pssst… I didn’t tell you this, but it’s Marc’s birthday today 😉
So glad today is better than yesterday. A nice clean fresh start makes for a much better day.
P.S. Yes, I know all about the birthday boy and sent him an email greeting first thing this morning. 😉 Hope his day is as special as he is. Enjoy the celebration!
Yes, indeed. Plus today, I went for my lunchtime walk so I am less grumpy.
I somehow knew you knew 🙂
that sure can be… there is nothing impawsible… a happy last september monday to the ranch
🤣 Right back atcha. Happy Monday.
Monika, this one “speaks” to me. Thanks for the giggle, and have a great week on the Ranch!
Hee, hee…glad you enjoyed the smile. Happy Monday, Bruce.
This one really made us giggle!! 😂
Hurray! We love it when we can provide a Monday smile. Hope it’s a great week for you.
Ha, good one. Made me LOL, especially since I don’t speak Spanish but do understand a few phrases. I’m not a fan of Soy anything but do like October (with the exception of it comes right before November and wet and cold…). October is a beautiful time at The Golden K. Have a great week the Ranch!
Thanks, Mike. Glad you enjoyed the sign. It cracked me up. I’m not a soy fan either but did have to chuckle. You know me-love a good silly pun. We excited for glorious October where the Rocks fell to your Giants. Yet again. What a horrible season best not remembered. Worse season in Rockies history with 119 losses. Yikes…can you say horrible?! Have a great Monday and please pass along some nice ear rubs from us to the Golden girls.
Yeah it must have been really hard to be a Rockies fan this year! SF had a great start and then ended up breaking my heart again. That’s how it goes some (or most) years….
Hard? Try impossible. They’ve managed to alienate any fan status through their dreadful and ongoing mismanagement. I haven’t gone to a Rockies game in years-it’s not worth the effort or aggravation. 😬
Similar to the A’s in years past. Hang in there.
No worries. It’s just baseball, not the end of the world. 😉
Good one! I did laugh. We need more humor, smiles, and laughs. Thanks!
Yay…glad we could provide a chuckle, Paulette. Have a Happy Monday!
Good one, and indeed I did laugh. We need more humor, more smiles, and much more laughter. Hugs to you. Paulette
You’re so right about the need for more smiles and more laughter needed these days. We’ll try to keep it going.
Bwahahahahahaha. I laughed out loud.
I linked this post to Awww Mondays.
Have a fabulous day and week. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to handsome Wilson. ♥
Hee, hee…so glad you enjoyed today’s smile. It sure cracked me up. Hoping your Monday is fab and the week a notch above that, dear Sandee. Thanks for adding us to your blog hop-you’re the best.
Our weather has been so fantastic the last week or two. Maybe a slight big warmer than usual but not stinking hot. I hope October continues the streak with an opportunity to wear a new sweater or two. I think I enjoy the change of wardrobe as much as the change of seasons.
I hear ya, I washed all the summer trousers and put them away for the season. Nothing better than pulling out sweaters to wear when walking in fallen leaves. Happy Monday, Kate!
“Summer trousers” sounds so formal but I like the phrase. So elegant!
Ha! If only the clothes were as elegant as the phrase. 😁
That really made me laugh! Thanks for picking up a lousy day!
Glad to provide a snicker on a Monday. Hope the day gets better for you, Helen. Happy Monday.
