Last day of September

  I get walking in rain The leafs look πŸ‘€ awesome.  So like they are away to be blown in a month off the tree 🌳. Dixie and I have a blast taking photos.  We meet a fellow dog walker saying we have special dogs that don’t let us have time to our self’s.  He was correct ✅ the lucky ones to get to walk in this weather. Walking in the rain can be a unique and refreshing experience, bringing a sense of tranquility and connection with nature. It's great Dixie enjoyed the changing autumn scenery, with the leaves looking beautiful and preparing to fall from the trees in the coming month. The encounter with a fellow dog walker who understood the joy of walking in such weather, and the feeling of having special dogs who keep everyone busy, must have added an extra level of camaraderie to a walk. While it would have been nice if others could have joined me on our walk, sometimes circumstances and commitments prevent people from participating. The important thing is that Dixie ...

BBQ Sunday evening

  Pleasant company and a great 😊 dinner 🍽️  Kim and I share a moment over dinner. Kim cut the potatoes πŸ₯” and I bbq the pork chops also bbq the potatoes πŸ₯”  Bryan brought the coleslaw. Was a delicious 🀀 nice, we open a bottle of sparkling apple juice. Clink glasses and enjoyed a meal together  After Bryan and I sit in the office in the recliner. The dog settled down after her meal. She loved it that Bryan came over. He is pleasant company. Kim makes lemon πŸ‹ poppyseed muffins  I am excited to try her treats. She got gluten free flour from the gluten free exhibition in Calgary. I saw some one but similar bags of flour at work today. I made a delivery with 6 bags of gluten free flour. So people do buy it.

September stairs

  September stairs going to the south side dog park.  We didn’t do a full lap.  Got nice out today. Says 32, was only to get to 25 Celsius. Before we pick up Frosty’s from Wendy’s. Dixie got fry’s we had with the dog πŸ•. Bryan spilt mayonnaise on my seat belt share the fry’s with the dog πŸ• He also wiped it up😬 We went down the stairs then back up. Bryan was a bit hesitant about going here.  But we took breaks going up and down. I πŸ˜‰ enjoy his company. All blue sky, It’s going to get cold πŸ₯Ά tomorrow morning. We look πŸ‘€ up our stairs will have to climb πŸ§—‍♀️ to get back up πŸ†™  Going down was east no breaks need going down. Stairs are awesome cardio, I was impressed we did it. The dog πŸ• had lots of energy but we sort of took our time going down we took photos going up we took breaks to get air. Our walk to the wooden part of stairs there a bit of a incline with out wooden stairs just a slope.   Dixie is one happy πŸ˜ƒ dog πŸ• 

Motorcycle ride to the community garden

  I rode the motorcycle to the north end of lethbridge.  Made a fun ride. We get working in the garden πŸͺ΄,  a shovel breaks while I am digging. But we got another shovel and started shoveling done more Pulling up dill for well I guess no one was using it. Meg offer me to take it to pickle but declined.  I might of known some one to take the fill but on the spot I think the job was to dig it up. I said it would go good in pickles but I guess that was not happing today.  It was going to the land fill I figured. But I thought of my dad or my in-laws if they were getting into pickles this year.   I had fun any how.   But that dang shovel broke. Sadly. Meg was great she kept saying how strong πŸ’ͺ I am or my hands πŸ™Œ could break the dirt so easily.  Made a guy feel great 😊  A fun time, I got dizzy 😡 shoveling in the sun ☀️ and had to sit down. It’s Meg community garden, and we got to dig it for her.  She got the other guys dinner 🍲 I came ho...

A walk around

  Henderson Park lake I meet up with the SSA to go for a walk with Allyson.  We were the only ones who showed up today.  Dixie loved it and it was the first time we walked all around the entire lakeside with group for me. There were hay bails at the park, Allyson said they might be for horses 🐎 cause they do horse rides around the park in winter and they might of started for it. We took a picture by it since it’s different. Later in our walk we talked about art and chiaroscuro and in horror movies πŸŽ₯  I mention the doctors office making art around the office deep in thinking πŸ€” rather than the postmodern new centre of thought experience. We said hello πŸ‘‹ to many people walking around the lake.  One comment was how a dog feels being naked in a room unable to speak πŸ—£️ and being touched by everyone.  Dixie is,.. well done πŸ‘ she gets handled lots on our walk. People with disabilities stop to pet her and she enjoyed her self care on the walk.  A good day...

Walk with dog by self

  Dixie and I get going for a walk by our self.  It got hotter out than expected.  I had to change into a T rather than a long sleeve. I’m like sweating bad in this humid morning. There were two baby deers🦌 and a mom on the side of our walk.  I did about a half an hour walk maybe πŸ€” 45 minutes with taking photos. Some geese moving from up north staying here, I wonder πŸ’­ if they are moving south already.  Or getting tired of getting shot at.  And the park is a safe place. A few of them were skittish and were only 3-4 not the usually 7-9  So I wondered where the full tribe of them went. Dixie is a good dog, calm and friendly.  I πŸ˜‰ had fun with Dixie, a well collected πŸ• of behaviours.   Beginning of our walk we stopped to take a photo. Before that we see a duck πŸ¦† walking the path.  It was alone also.  Finding that meaning in relationships is hard for animals.  But alone I bet they are happy, but happiness is fleeting alone and...
