Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.
Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they don't drift apart.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

Morning walk detour through the tall grass.


     Charleigh's prey-drive list includes one more thing.....I will really have to work on the "DANGER" command.  The rattling sound absolutely fascinated her.  She wanted that snake sooooo badly.
     We also saw a big garter snake, but it zipped off before Charleigh could get too excited, unlike this snake which had claimed his territory and was going no where for anyone.
     There is a good reason for leash laws around here.
     It seems to be the time of year when it would be prudent to move all of our walks to city sidewalks.
   




     Last night was Diva Night at the Boulder Running Company Littleton store.  It was a huge party with music, food, drink, fun, and lots of giveaways.  I won a free P.T. injury evaluation at a local P.T. clinic!  Family members have recommended I do this for a long time.
      I'm the short mustached person waving from the back. Note to guys....it is impossible to drink beer when wearing a mustache.



Here is a link to a great article on how to buy running shoes.  The American College of Sports Medicine, no less, recommends neutral lightweight shoes with minimal heel to toe drop and to avoid shoes with high, thick cushioning (the current fad).
