Fair-weather walkers emerge

You know Joan and I walk the neighborhood everyday twice a day (unless something unusual comes up like Joan being sick in the bathroom) - but even then, Joan usually finds someone to take me out because I don't know how to be "patient" and "quiet" when I don't get my walk. In any case, that is not the topic for today. This weekend it has been warm - like around 40-50 degrees - and on Saturday afternoon when Joan walked me along the river, the path was really busy. I call them fair-weather walkers because they were not out when I walked during the -20 degree weather! It was usually just Joan and me out there on the deserted pathways and a few lone, crazy bike commuters (good for them).

My favorite ground covering (besides a deep pool of water) - the snow - is melting away. I'm getting to sit outside more on squirrel patrol - though there are not many squirrels around. I did not get to see my neighbor, Tim, this weekend which means I did not get any extra treats. Bummer.

Joan is working and she is so boring when she sits in that chair at the desk. I prefer her to be on the couch so I can snuggle next to her.

The weather is improving, day by day overhere too.
