Willards Island Nature Trail

    In my never ending  and quite possibly futile quest to get back to my pre middle age weight, I have kicked up the walking distance and speed and frequency now that the weather is cooperating.  Frasier is often my companion on these jaunts. I have found that I’m more likely to stick with it if I have a dog with me,  change up the location and don’t worry so much about  things like… 

 how.many.calories.did.I.burn….how.far.did.I.go…. what.speed.did.I.manage. 

  When I try getting too technical and give myself yet another chore by having to keep track,  I lose interest real fast. That includes using all those fabulous apps that are just one more thing.   So I’m just winging it, and I find I’m having more success at staying the course as long as I don’t plot that course too rigidly.

 

 
 

 
 

 
 
Silt Soaks are all the rage, you know.
 
 
 
 
Apparently.
 

 
According to Frasier.. you get yourself all situated with a good long stretch.
Then you just relax in that position for, like, five minutes or so.
Long enough for plenty of silt to settle in your fur.
Then you get out, shake off and splatter whoever is within a five yard radius
so that they benefit from the silt soak too.. and you allow the remaining
two pounds of silt to dry on your fur as you meander back to the car,
where you proceed to rub the rest of said silt into the upholstery.
Make sure mom is not prepared with, oh, say.. a towel or three.
It’s just more fun this way.
 
 

 
 

 
 

 It’s a new day, all –  we’re headed to a four day horse show in the rain.  But we’re gonna make it a good one.  You know I’ll be back with pictures… have a great weekend!

Another Day for the Dogs!….

    This weekend there will be another shelter dog adoption event in Chester, Ct at the Fairgrounds.  For more information… go here…

Dog Days dogs  are pulled from high kill shelters,
and some are from municipal dog pounds
and Connecticut Rescue groups.
When you adopt a  Dog Days shelter dog,
you are saving a life.
The saving of dogs from cruel euthanasia 
or a life in a kennel
and finding them homes is their mission.
Meet some of the dogs  
who will be available for adoption this weekend….
Molly
Susie

If you see me hovering… just SAY NO!!!
Drew

Maggie
Cindy
Tucker

Regarding T-shirts in this post earlier today…
just got word from the printer…
and they’ve run into snags and want to up the price
so that it will not be affordable to produce.
When we find a better option,
we’ll work on this fundraiser again.
