This was a weather-beaten bad week for Pics, but here goes!
Virtually the only good evening to take a Walk was Wednesday...
|
| This family had four big dogs playing off-leash. No problems, other than the speed increase it brought out from Misty... |
|
| Misty kept looking around for something.... |
|
| And here it was! A lady walking her two beautiful dogs sans leashes! This too would have been no problem... |
|
| ...even when they ignored her for a meet-and-greet... |
...but, in their roughhousing, Misty got her leash around the neck of one of them. She was a sweetie )unlike my doggie) and sat there calm while I knelt and unwrapped her. She went back to her owner, Misty tried to follow, and came close to making me face-plant in the snow. Needless to say, Misty's next couple minutes were not near so enjoyable...
|
| ...but we moved on, and boy didn't I wish I was on skis! |
Thursday was yet another lack-of-work nooner, and we went to go find the nearby place where I am going to have to go for PT for my shoulder. Left shoulder is not wanting to raise, and Doc set me up with an outfit near home...
|
| At this point, we are going where Misty's never been (though Scrappy had been many times). She was good about looking back to see which way I wanted to turn... |
|
| ..and took her time on this patch of ice. |
|
| Ice AND a banana peel? Come on... |
|
| Here we are at the office park... |
|
| ...and there's the place! |
|
| So next, I took here through the addition, where she's never been... |
|
| Watching the city collect leaves |
|
| Christmas, perhaps overdone |
|
| And into the park in the center. Haven't been here in about 6 years... |
|
| Misty was impressed when we rounded the corner and things opened up |
|
| I think that bottle was there 6 years ago... |
|
| Misty sees our back yard- suddenly, she knows where she is, and speed goes up accordingly. |
Friday was a wash-out, and so was much of Saturday- but we got a pleasant morning walk in...
|
| ..if you're a Dorian Gray kinda guy... |
|
| Thinking they jumped a mite early on the ice sign... no ice, no deep water... |
|
| Alumni Center Mastodon ready for Christmas, lol |
|
| Little gray squirrels playing on the ravine trail... |
|
| No, wait, this water's better |
|
| Posing for the BA pic last night... |
And finally, no walk Sunday AM because of...
...chunky fog....
