 Wow 🤩 green August, I’ve never seen such a green mid August 


The coulee look very green this year, more rain than anticipated yet I’m loving 🥰 the weather.


The dog 🐕 and I sit in the river tossing a ball 🏀 to the shoreline.  We had lots of fun three other dogs join us I never asked there names.


They stated they interrupt my silence 🤫 I was enjoying the moment also with or without more dogs 🐕 we had a great time.

One of there dogs played with Dixie ball and I had to go rescue the ball.⚽️ 


The dog and I went alone the morning got hot 🥵 early.  Plus 27 Celsius by the time we got home 🏡 




I decide to take Dixie out of the house a bit. Before work. She is enjoying herself in the water now we’re out front drying off.






I take a photo by our regular spot to see the river, where it is, it looks fuller than usual.  Just a metre off shore.

Usually it’s 2-3 metre by this time of year.



My folks come back from Canmore they say it’s way busier than they remember and they went on the weekend. I wish Kim and I would do hikes like this to falls or mountain tops.

I would really enjoy it.




Dixie is doing good even with my down time with how hot it has been this end of summer.

9% below average to similar breeds but I’ve sort of figured it be low on how much these last three weeks have been stationary.

67 active minutes so far by 11 am.

The dog s sitting in the ☀️ after the river while I blog the first time for a month. Just haven’t been able to.






It sounds like you're having a wonderful summer filled with nature, relaxing moments, and quality time with Dixie. The unusually lush greenery and the fuller river are beautiful signs of the season's vibrant weather. It's great to hear Dixie is enjoying the water, especially with the hot temperatures, and that you've been able to take some time to relax and reconnect with your environment. 


Your reflections about hikes and mountain trips sound lovely—those adventures are always memorable. It's also nice that your parents are enjoying their return from Canmore and experiencing the busy, scenic area.

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 and a run in to the vet

By
 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...

A fawn born on our yard

By
A baby fawn was born on our lawn and it’s trying to warm up in the asphalt I’m guessing it’s still warm. We’re trying to give it space hopefully it mother comes by so we’re staying inside. I just went outside for a smoke and it crawled under the vehicle 🚗 lots of people are walking by it not noticing it then others are stopping.  Quite the thing to see. A few hours old… it’s still wet with mucus on it. With Kim’s super camera zoom is we could see Fish and wild life say to call in 24 hours if animals are left by moms  So we’re hoping people leave the fawn alone.  Although it’s a super cool 😎 thing to see. I think it hoofs are still soft from being born that’s why it’s staying put since it went on that hard surface till it’s hoofs Harden. It crawled on its knees after the side walk and just hunkered down for a bit. Two hours from first spotting.  Still there hiding under the vehicle 🚗 it kind of a good spot of course there’s better picked spots but it’s half and hal...
