On my way to Edinburg the other day, I stopped to take a picture of some lambs.
My cell phone has a feature where you can tap the Info button for a picture and it will show you where you took the picture and it will even make a guess at what kind of animal or plant you’re seeing. It identified the sheep as a mammal, so I clicked through to see what kind. Wow, that’s wrong!
Meanwhile, Charlie continues to master the skills I expected him to learn a year ago. He’s riding in the car bravely, and sometimes sleeping past daybreak. We’re still working on separation anxiety, though.
He has a few words to say but first, here are some pictures from one of our trips to Seven Bends State Park.
And Now, A Beagle Report!
“Hi! Do you like going to the dog park? I love to go, but sometimes no other dogs are there. I inspect the whole place, but if no dogs show up, I feel kind of sad.
“The best way to go to the dog park is to take some friends with you. Today we took Sadie. Her mom threw the ball for us and gave us water.”
“Be sure to have fun when the weather is nice. Maybe we’ll see you at the park!”
Haha. That AI definitely misidentified those lambs!
ReplyDeleteIn that first photo from seven Bends State Park, what are we looking at? Is that a walkway that goes out onto the water? If so, that's really cool.
Charlie, you are looking great, and we loved your report.
No, that’s a one lane bridge for vehicles that crosses the river to get to the park.
DeletePity that there were no dogs in dog park
ReplyDeleteThere is a whole proliferation of those phone apps these days and the algorithms are often far from perfect.
ReplyDeleteIl tuo smartphone ha una applicazione fantastica.Buone gite con il tuo Charlie!
ReplyDeleteCute photos of Charlie Sadie and Midnight. The doggie park sounds fun! Pretty views of the park.

ReplyDeleteHello Linda and Charlie :)
ReplyDeleteLinda your reflection photos are lovely, and you Charlie are as handsome as ever.
I like that black rhino that you saw...heehee! And Charlie is such a fun dog when he has friends to play with! Love the park photos, another state park I would like to visit!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics!
ReplyDeleteWise words from Charlie who is slowly but steadily learning. I can relate to that! and too funny on the phone information; hope today's kids are learning that AI is not always "I"
ReplyDeleteThat is pretty funny how bad the AI can be. Nice to see the photos of life in your world though.
