’n the fact that the sun is shining (mostly) doesn’t mean that the mud is gone so…Muddy Paws…dunno what it is with dogs sumtimes…you’re walking along, having a good time ’n a sudden jerk on the leash, a turn to the right ’n he’s standing in a pool of water…’n has to wade thru mud to not only get there but to get out as well…’n that’s at the entrance to the park…
lots of people out walking…lots of dogs leading their owners (?)…
After being nipped on the nose by a small dog that lives up the street, Willy has become a little standoffish with small dogs…not so with the larger beasts that could crush him with one bite…not saying, of course, that they would, just that they have the capability…
Stopped at Jon’s Salon for treats…Jon ’n Diana have some sort of competition over whose treats get eaten first…’n not just for Willy, I hear this from others who also stop for treats…(they have a dish of hard candy for the humans)…
Down around the back part of the park, grass is spongy ’n still wet ’n some of the kids that ignore the remonstrations of their mothers (for the most part) have muddy knees ’n bottoms…”Es no mes problema”…one of the phrases that I picked up long ago down valley when I tho’t it was a good idea to be able to communicate with my customers…then I found out they wanted to learn to speak American more’n I wanted to learn to speak Mexican…(and yeah, I know we’re talking about English ’n Spanish, thank you very much)…
I didn’t learn a lot of Spanish during those years but I managed to get by, made a lot of friends, had a good time ’n developed a taste for Mexican beer (current favorite is Pacifico Clara)…
Not at all sure what all this has to do with Willy ’n me walking around the park on a Sat’iday afternoon but there you are…Have a good weekend, Justin Other Smith
