Took Trey and Sooki for several of circuits of McCormack's Boardwalk late this afternoon.
It was chilly but sunny. A stiff breeze made it feel even colder. I wore a sweat top and a jacket with the neck tightly zipped and the hood up.

The long grass was shiny and golden as it bent in the setting sun.

On the last circuit, I noticed the scent of the air. I wondered why I hadn't noticed it before. I breathed deep, held it, breathed out. The aroma was one of salt and fish. I love that scent.
I drilled Sooki and Trey on their heeling, treats kept handy to distract them as they sit nicely, when other dogs or people walk by. I walked briskly, in order to get some decent exercise myself.
I always come home feeling invigorated and glad I made myself go out.
Hey troops. I'm hearing that some folk are having trouble posting comments on my stupendous blog. This saddens me deeply. I am testing the comment feature by leaving this comment. What an amazingly, wonderful, fabulous blog ! ;-)
ReplyDeleteLovely shots Sybil. I would have liked that chilly walk. Next time I'll come. Today however I am walking in Paris!
ReplyDeleteExcuses, excuses Lynne. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOK, Sybil, I am on another computer and attempting to post a comment. (Can't remember what I was gonna say yesterday) except, jeez, it would be nice to walk along that boardwalk!
ReplyDeleteHurray! I am being allowed to comment here again. :)
ReplyDeleteKathy, thanks for persevering. I changed it so that comments are on a pop-up window and that seems to have helped. That's good -- as that's the full extent of my knowledge. -)
