Sahraa in her earthwork masterpiece

Sahraa has been working on the hole she’s in for all the years we’ve been back in Washington, but I haven’t ever seen her lie in it, it’s just that deep. Tim usually fills it in, and then she digs it out again. I managed to catch this before she realized I had my cell phone in hand, after I had turned the sound off on it. Then she promptly turned her head to look at the fence.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

There's a book for children with the passage "a hole is a hole to dig". I think Sahraa has read it!

Sahraa looks so content and happy in her hole, Helen lol..V

Sahraa definitely has a lot of personality!!! Maybe she thinks she's a bear They dig holes to nap in.

That is too funny that she actually digs a hole for herself and then digs again when you fill it in!

Wow. I didn't know dogs did that. Her very own paw-built dog bed!
