With winter comes shorter days as the night arrives around 5:00-5:30 o’clock, often leaving us to take our walks in the dark. Walking at night can be relaxing and fun, but also dangerous and scary if the proper precautions aren’t … Continue reading
We went for a walk in town last week, just to mix things up a bit.
We walked around the neighborhoods I sometimes day dream about living in. We walked down Main Street and looked through the shop windows. We enjoyed the change of scenery and the nice weather.

Petal was much calmer this walk and only barked at other barking dogs and even then, she calmed down much faster than she usually does.

Isn’t that usually the case?

Petal wore a backpack. She’s a working dog, you see. 😉
It was filled with goodies and useful things.
And a few useless things, to try and make the weight even on both sides of the pack.
And after lots of walking, I got to see and enjoy a lot of this,
I hope everyone had a good day and wore those doggies out! 😉
