Our hike today turned into dog playtime for Sherlock.

There is a small, very small, waterfall along the trail & we paused there to let a large black Lab catch up to us. The Lab SPLASHED around in the small pool beneath the waterfall while Sherlock hesitantly played with him. I say hesitantly as Sherlock would chase and play when the dog ran out of the pool and into the creek. Sherlock was afraid the water in the pool might be too deep.

Then a merle & white Aussie, named Blue, with blue eyes arrived & joined in the fun. When Blue calmly went all the way into the pool Sherlock finally followed. Shortly after a Shiba Inu & his mixed yellow lab sibling arrived & added to the growing chaos. We had the large Lab bouncing all around in the water, Sherlock & the Aussie playing tug of war with sticks & the two other dogs barking & play growling-time to continue on the trail.

While the Lab bounced all around, Sherlock & the Aussie decided to continue playing with sticks. Playing tug of war while moving forward isn’t easy, instead they ran side by side each with one end of the stick in their mouth. Two dogs, 3 blue eyes between them, happily running in unison straight at us as if the stick was a bar running through their mouths connecting them. It was so darn cute and I didn’t have a camera!

And on that note (G#), I'm off. My Two Aunts (that's got to be the title of something) are coming over to my sister's tonight and she (my sister) wants me to come over and help her with stuff before they (the aunts) arrive. Hopefully, it won't be more furniture moving.

Pray for Rosemary's baby.

Hmm... Dinner: pieces of halibut sauteed in olive oil with garlic, shallots and grape tomatoes, splashed with red wine vinegar at the end - served over some mesclun. A glass of vinho verde.

Now I just need dessert.
