The Weekend

Well, I did not post on Saturday. It was of course, through no fault of my own. It would really help if we had thumbs. So, Saturday was absolutely dog gone fabulous. We heard the beautiful birds escorting us into the park. I am not sure where the squirrels and chipmunks were but it was great to hear the birds. We did not see any other dogs for a really long time but finally, the fabulous Pearl.
My person turned around and we went back the way we came with Pearl. I love to chase her and play fast and hard. So we ended up back at the beach.
Soon it was a pack party when Winnie and Scooter showed up. Hooray, I'm an honorary Lab again!!!!
Some dogs I had never met before showed up.
A Corgi named Haily and a Great Pyranees named Lola. We were all immediate buddies and we all ran and played and splashed, even though the water was chilly.
Winnie was having a great time and I was happy to see it. She is going to have her surgery next week so remember the good energy to Winne.
Sunday was a more peaceful day. We saw Pierre, Benji and Trixie at the beginning of the walk. Later in the big field we saw Watson who has the most energy of anyone I have ever met. He was with his bro willie of course.
We walked down the big hill and the mystery that is people hit me again. I was running chasing squirrels in the woods and I saw my person slip on some stones and nearly tumble down the hill. She caught herself but it did make me wonder again about why thy walk on 2 legs. Had she had all 4's on the ground than one paw slipping would be no big deal. When you only have 2 down and one slips it could be trouble. I don't get it. It seems so clear to me. It's sort of like... If a dog barks in the woods and there is no person around to hear it does he/she still make a sound?
Hey, check out this spider web. I stood still watching this spider for a long time. You know, like 5 seconds. Anyway, I do not think I have ever seen anyone work so hard. I hope spiders get time to play too.
We finished the walk with Bandit who is a dog's dog like me. He is also a beautiful burnt orange color that I just love.
