Chihuahua joy

    This is yesterday's entry. Time got away from me and I never got a chance to make one. Tamara and I had another of those days that sound like little on paper but was pure joy in execution. We took her chihuahuas to the far end of (unpaved) Old State Road again, this time bringing both instead of just one. Man did they have fun! You would not believe how fast old, arthritic little dogs can run. We had pretty big fun, too. Also we saw good butterflies, like a very large yellow-form tiger swallowtail. So I was much relieved on that score.
    We brought along her stroller (bought on Craig's List for pet use), which didn't get a lot of use with the athletes we were with. However, we then took them to Grill Marks. It's a restaurant that welcomes dogs on the patio, but the chihuahuas had to be zipped away in the stroller or they would have run out into Gervais Street. But we gave them a selection of what we were eating. We think it made them pretty happy. It was a banner day for chihuahuas.
    We also went to Lowe's. She had already bought a push blade mower; this proved inadequate for the weeds in her yard when we put it together. So we got a cordless weed whacker, and this did the job nicely. So on the whole, a lively, fun, productive day. Aren't we good?
