This afternoon was too gorgeous to stay inside, so I collected a sweet little lonely puppy from my sister's house and we followed a windy road to a state park. We found a little section for ourselves, a decent distance away from the four other people in the area and put down a blanket.
It was beautiful. I meant to read, but between Patches and the sunshine, I found it a good time to think instead. Sometimes, I just need to think. And today was one of those days.
I hooked about five leashes together to give Patches several yards of freedom. She enjoyed it but I could tell she didn't like the limits! For a while, I felt like I was lunging a very tiny little pony as she ran laps around me, as far as the leads would let her go. She settled next to me on the blanket a few times, but she roamed most of the time.
She would come trotting back if she needed a drink or if she heard the rustle of anything that might be a treat for her being opened. Patches was a very good companion for today's afternoon in the sun.
