Morning walk

Hi all.  It was a beautiful sunny morning today, and Brooke, Gabe, Luke and I went for a walk.  Gabe really enjoys being outside.  He practically was running to keep up with the rest of us.  We had to stop to look back every once in a while.  I don't know why.  Maybe to remember where we had been.  There are many points along the way to perform the rituals of past walks.  Sit on a rock.  Get tickled by a bush.  Splash in a puddle.  We met another dog along the way and a young mother with a three week old and an older boy approximately 3 years.  The sky was so blue the trees and grass so green.  My advice?, "take a kid for a walk."  It also slows the walk down so it's easier for the old folks.  Brooke had to carry Gabe for a while though, at the end.  Just a little while and then he finished strong.


If you have ever watched My Favorite Martian, it's really fun(to me) to watch these old TV shows again.  They are so fresh and innocent, G-rated in retrospect.  I like to notice the styles of the time and the technology of the time.  The TV sits on one of those old metal stands that can be wheeled into viewing position.  The phone is a land line.  The rug is an American Indian style.  Fun to watch and nostalgic for us older Americans.  Who knew we had it so right back then.  I'm also watching an English series called Wire in the Blood.  That's not bad and I just think it's great to be able to get these from the library.  


Sorry I haven't been writing much lately.  See you soon.

  2. I wondered who was checking those out. I'm jumping around season 1-3. Keeping track so I don't check out one I've seen.

  3. I just started Season Three. I'm watching it on Netflix though, so I am not the culprit.
