An evening walk...

We walked downtown (about 3 blocks) tonight at 8pm to get our mail. It is dark out by 8  so we hung a little light on Chica so we could see her! Chica is not very good on a leash and we are terrible dog trainers so we let her off the leash tonight. She mostly stays near and we were the only souls out on the sidewalk. You cannot see a black dog at night... it was like walking a little firefly. 

I had a terrible headache today and didn't get much done. After dinner friends stopped by and brought me some cookies which did cure me. 

I say it a lot... it's magic here. 

but friends, please move here I miss you. 

How are we doing?

Pretty well... Ms. Chica is sleek and healthy and weighs a whopping 8.2 pounds. She is learning how to handle noises without being so frightened. 

 

This is our friend Sandra who has a huge and amazing garden. Tonight she brought us this "slice" of a 22 pound cantalope!!! (and it was yummy) 

Ginger and I are tired, but we are getting to the end of our house renew/remodel. I'd say we are about 85% done. It's clean and cozy here. We need a heating system soon. In the last two days the cooler fall mornings and eves have arrived. 

I hope you are all well and happy. Sending much love, Janice
