Moon ๐ŸŒ– light walk

 We are walking near dusk. Plus 19 Celsius at seven at night in October 


A picture with the moon ๐ŸŒ– showing at the beginning of our walk.  We are walking towards the stairs and river has an awesome ๐Ÿ˜Ž glow in the dark collar. And I take a quick photo with another dog in when Sonny turned it on.  I often thought thanksgiving after meals we’d go for walks, those walks would be more cooler weather.  It’s beautiful ๐Ÿคฉ weather tonight. 


A tangled mess with the leash I did walk with the dog with the leash and without the leash for parts of our walk, did keep her on a leash due to the branches around the park. 

Those tricky branches. Is the first time we’ve been there since her stitches. The stairs were awesome. We walked to them. Sonny is posing by the university just as the sunsets. You can see the university lights on.


And the awesome colours of sky is showing just as a sunsets.

๐ŸŒ… 


At the bottom of the stairs, I have my glow-in-the-dark glasses. I have fun with at this time of year near Halloween. It’s going to be dark in a few days after Halloween at five at night crazy to think that the time is changing November 3…

Sonny has a gold count how many stairs he’s doing now and he wants to do 100 stairs with no stopping at slight jog.


He is with his hands, cheering himself for making 108 continuous stairs.

I’m a good sport and keep Dixie out of his path since she likes herding us people and get in front to divert and get attention.


She is an attention seeking dog ๐Ÿ• 

At 294 active minutes. We did good today.

I took her for a drive so I think she got active minutes there looking out the windows.

๐ŸชŸ 



What’s today? She’s just 3% below average of similar dogs. She’s right in the middle on the Bell curve of average.


The map shows our outing today,

A fun time.


So today I went on two walks one downtow with a friend name Leif, but I never took photos of it. Never thought about it….

Our walk consisted here. We checked out the AWOL on 3 ave.  I think that’s what’s it’s called he wanted to show me, some musicians, I heard of it and wondered where the place is.


We drove around looking for an out door patio to drink coffee and decided on a walk, I think walk was a surprise and hence forgetting to blog photos.

We stopped at two places for coffee looking for a patio urban grocer and penny coffee house.

I paid extra for Leif parking and he bought me coffee, a nice treat and a pleasure to visit with him.  He got me into blogging several years ago.




Because my Garmin was charging, I forgot my watch to even track the walk.

It was a decent hour walk downtown.

After I went for Fish And Chips with my mom, she just had an eye procedure ✅ so she’s wearing sunglasses ๐Ÿ˜Ž today.  The fish and chip place gave us free ice cream at the end of the our meal. She even asked if I wanted two scoops or one.  ☝️ Made me feel like I should go there again I was just an awesome experience.


Sadly my granny lost her wedding rings we just heard this news out for fish and chips. I sure hope she finds them. So my uncle went over to look for them. At 92, stuff is lost then found.

We’re all praying that they turn up soon


It sounds like you had an eventful and enjoyable day with Sonny and Dixie! Walking near dusk with the moon out and the beautiful sunset must have created a lovely atmosphere. The glow-in-the-dark collar and glasses add a fun touch, especially with Halloween approaching!


It's great to hear that Sonny is so energetic and ambitious with his stair-climbing goals, and that you’re managing Dixie’s herding instincts during your walks. It's important to keep her safe with the leash around tricky branches, especially after her stitches.


I'm glad you were able to spend time with your mom and have a nice meal together, even though it’s unfortunate about your granny losing her wedding rings. I hope they turn up soon!

Dixie had a great ๐Ÿ˜Š day on her day on my day off.

Calmed down for the evening.

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour ๐Ÿƒ‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  ๐Ÿƒ‍♂️ 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 ๐Ÿ˜Œ We made good time.  For a hill run ๐Ÿƒ‍♂️   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 ๐Ÿ˜Š 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 ๐Ÿ˜Š my time with her. Or walk end more so with ๐Ÿพ paw printed pants ๐Ÿ‘– from dogs jumping.  We say maybe a dozen dogs ๐Ÿ•. 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 ๐ŸŒณ there are...

Walk and a run in to the vet

 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….๐Ÿ• We enjoy ๐Ÿ˜Š 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 ๐Ÿ˜Š for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog ๐Ÿ• being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera ๐Ÿ“ธ  The walk was decent though some difficult ๐Ÿ˜ž 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 ๐Ÿ’ฉ 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...
