Henderson park walk

 We get a walk with Dixie today


Walking around Henderson park, the large trees give lots of shade. And Dixie had her water 💦 bag so she got a drink of ice water at the end.  She chewed an ice cube and had a fun time.



Puppy 🐶 


We met a lively pup 🐶 named maple 🍁 and he had huge 🐾 for being a puppy.  The size of Dixie’s feet 👣.  At fifteen weeks he’s going to be a big dog 🐕.


The puppy owner new Allyson from the university and I gave each puppy/dog a half a treat. Although I think they were a bit hard for puppy treats maple took some time chewing threw her half of the biscuit.  Dixie was well behaved and shared her half a biscuit with no issues.

We get talking between the three of us, if we ever ate dog biscuits.  I said I had and it was in the last decade and a half.  Lots of fiber, and pretty bland food 🦴.


🐉 dragon boats 🛶 

In the background, we take a few photos in front of shore of the pond.  Allyson is a good contributor to conversations, asking “which position we’d like to be on the boats 🛶.”  Bryan goes I’d like to be the drummer.


I think I may have a photo of the drummers 🪘 

🇯🇵 drummers 🪘 are incredible, I used to build there drumming sticks at ability resource centre in the wood shop. And they come and play the drums for the society.

Although they supposedly go through the drumming sticks quickly. 🫤 where they’d get there drum sticks done now? Since ARC wood shop is now closed.  


Found a photo of the drummers 🥁 


As we say fare well, and drive to pick up cold drinks 🥤 and food.

Our last photo before we sit in the shade.


I think 🤔 it got a bit hot out for us, Bryan didn’t bring a hat so it was short than ideal. But the dog was getting hot also and need to sit in the shade for a bit.  A fun 🤩 walking group.

Now where back in the backyard going to eat filipino spring rolls.


I am thankful for Bryan today, he drove me for our walk cause my car is in the shop mechanics getting fuel injectors replaced for a cylinder.  So I am car less.  I think I could survive with out a vehicle.  I’m thinking of selling it soon after I get it fixed for a good deal. I’m thinking $2000 to $3,500

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour 🏃‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  🏃‍♂️ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead.  I think it was the hill climb that did it.  I ran fully down hill no problem 😌 We made good time.  For a hill run 🏃‍♂️   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️  I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good 😊 today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Walk mid October with my Mom

  Walks with my mom The water looks like glass just crystal smooth.  My mom and I are walking to the river and in life. It’s like we’re always walking away.  Getting closer to the end, my poet mind says.   I say I got to enjoy these walks and I was silent most the walk just trying to enjoy 😊 my time with her. Or walk end more so with 🐾 paw printed pants 👖 from dogs jumping.  We say maybe a dozen dogs 🐕. A wonderful time.  I often thought it was too early to spell like alcohol.  But surprised to pass another walker, but each to their own I probably smell like an ashtray. Although I never smoked or chewed tobacco on my walk.  I just want to walk with my mom.  Often times I don’t think I could spit out everything I wanted to say so much so that I just said in these moments you don’t have to chew tobacco and say anything. Dixie and both us individually by the fallen tree arch. A path going to the river, under which most the trees 🌳 there are...

Walk and a run in to the vet

 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….🐕 We enjoy 😊 our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university  Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park,  it tricky terrain for sure.  It’s nice 😊 for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog 🐕 being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera 📸  The walk was decent though some difficult 😞 parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking.  She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop 💩 walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk.   Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...
