photo taken April 2009 • title thanks to Nancy
You saw one picture of Charlie with the hammer last week ~ there are more…
Mike and I were working on something when Charlie spotted the hammer laying on the ground, dashed over, and grabbed it, very proud of his score. I, of course, had to get the camera.
This week’s contest has a twist. I not only need a title for this picture, but also for Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s pictures as well. Which you won’t see until they are posted. I will choose a winner for today’s picture AND two other winners for the following two pictures based on the entries I get today.
The three winners will each get a Charlie-tested, Chloe-approved elk antler chew toy for the canine in your life: sawed lengths of a naturally shed elk antler, very alluring to dog-types and virtually indestructible.
So, put your creative powers to work (and any psychic powers you may have) and leave your title or caption in the comment section of this post!

IF I HAD A HAMMER (The Hammer Song)
words and music by Lee Hays and Pete Seeger
If I had a hammer
I’d hammer in the morning
I’d hammer in the evening
All over this land
I’d hammer out danger
I’d hammer out a warning
I’d hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters
All over this land
If I had a bell
I’d ring it in the morning
I’d ring it in the evening
All over this land
I’d ring out danger
I’d ring out a warning
I’d ring out love between my brothers and my sisters
All over this land
If I had a song
I’d sing it in the morning
I’d sing it in the evening
All over this land
I’d sing out danger
I’d sing out a warning
I’d sing out love between my brothers and my sisters
All over this land
Well I’ve got a hammer
And I’ve got a bell
And I’ve got a song to sing
All over this land
It’s the hammer of justice
It’s the bell of freedom
It’s the song about love between my brothers and my sisters
All over this land

Charlie Gets Hammered

Monday: “I’d Hammer out Danger!”
Tuesday: “I’d Hammer out a Warning!”
Wednesday: “I’d hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters
All over this land.”
Wednesday’s would work best if Eli and Chloe were included in the picture. :o)

This Week on “EXTREME Home Make-over” Charlie builds Eli that eco-friendly mansion he has been whispering about.
For every woodworking project, there is always an eager face with a hammer.
Trying to rebuild the beaver population. (there seems to be a piece of wood at his feet, thought it would be funny for a coyote to rebuild a beaver dam)
