Thusday March 20th

WOW! What a day. We have walked in the last couple of days but Mimi has not been with me and it was all sort of low key. We walked with Abby but cut it a little short because my person's hip was hurting so we went on a short walk. It was worth the wait for today. It was such a great day! There are HUGE puddles everywhere at the park. My person did not seem to mind me running in them today. Plus, there are tons of chipmunks and squirrels everywhere. I was immediately running all over the place, up and down all of the hills and chasing those little critters. Most importantly was that I was not alone. Mimi was back on the walk today. She was barking at me and shoving me out of her way. It was great. We ran and ran and ran. My person's hip is better too so she was feeling like she really wanted to travel. Hooray! we were all back and ready to go. So, we ran into Daisy who was hanging out with Lenny. I have not seen Lenny in a long time. That boy is looking good. He had a bit of a severe haircut but it was good to see him. It is so weird what I saw next. We went by the dog beach and there was no beach. The water from the river is so high that the entire beach area is covered in water. It is hard to believe that just a few months ago the water was so low you could walk across the river to the other shore. Even Mimi with her little legs could get across.
So, we walked alone most of the time but I did not care because me and my sister had so much fun. I almost forgot to say that we have been going up "the hill" the last few days. That is a very good sign. Just as we were getting to the end of the walk things got crazy! First of all I saw Mia and Molly. Well, lets face it. Mia loves me! She is a Standard Poodle and I am very happy that we saw each other. We pranced around together a bit but than there was a lot of shouting and pointing going on near the parking lot. As it turns out this little poodle named Holly had gotten away from her person and was out in the road. Cars were stopping and yelling "Is anyone missing a dog?" All of the people started yelling down the paths looking for Holly's person. My person stopped the shananagans between me and Mia and put me and Mimi on lead. Turns out it was Sonic and Scully's sister Holly! Her person showed up right away and got her out of the road and everyone was safe. Now, I like that crew but I gotta tell you my person mad mee a little upset. She put me and Mimi in the car and went over to check on Holly. Only, that is not really why she went over. Sure she likes Holly but the real reason is because Holly's person has a people puppy. I think they call them "babies" or something. Anyway, she went over there and spent all her time with that baby. He was smiling and happy as he could be. My person did not let me out to sniff him, roll him in the mud, lick his face, NOTHING! So, my person and their person stood there with all of the dogs in the cars and played with the people puppy (aka: baby) for a long time. HELLO! This is the dog park, not the baby park. I am sure there is a park for babies somewhere! Anyway, I am glad Holly is OK!
