A Lazy Sunday
Sundays were made for loading the dogs in the car and heading to the park. Aurora is trying to teach Darling the finer points of wind-riding, but Darling is still a little short to get her head into the stream.
We stepped out at Willamette Mission and I heard a lawnmower sound coming towards us - could have knocked my socks off when we saw this guy flying over the trees. Pretty colors - I sure like my new camera.
The dogs hit the ground running - this was Darling's first long walk. We were out over an hour, about 4 miles or so.
It was a little chilly, so Keely was sporting her Boston Marathon gloves and rocking her lululemon jacket.
These fuzzy plants are locked in a death battle with the blackberry brambles. I'm kinda scared to find out which one wins.
Darling did very well on her walk - no problems at all. But it did tucker her out.
After we dropped the dogs off at the house, we headed off to Mount Angle for Oktoberfest, where I got to expand my knowledge of food on a stick. How have I gotten to be nearly 50 years old without having eaten corn-on-the-cob on a stick?
Keely is a big fan of Z MusikMakers, a family that has been playing together for decades. The Zollers are an institution. That was a damn fine day. I can't wait to see what's coming next. |
