Sunday April 3

Gorgeous sunshine, winds have died down, a lovely day ... morning run, feed and kennel, go to church ... return, dogs greet me at gate, go to trailer and change, go out to mow ... dogs follow me down the hill and dispose themselves in the shade to watch me mow, put in about an hour, interspersed with mini 'sit-stay' trainings, then return for lunch. Let dogs in, thought the Damcat was in back but ack, he's hiding behind the curtain ... call dogs into kitchen for treats, the Damcat scoots by ... actually scoots under Corey, but thats fine. Out again for a bit more mowing, finish up front section, then take brief nap ... up again, brush Banshee (who is starting to blow her undercoat, oh boy I look forward to THIS each year ...load dogs into van, go into town to PetSmart and park ... meet a bunch of children in PetSmart, little girl overwhelmed by 'all the dogs', DB lets her give a treat, poor Snoopy is overwhelmed by 'all the kids' and backs behind me, Corey dancing and prancing and barking, Banshee smiling ...a nice time was had by all... return, take final evening run, talk briefly to neighbor, return to trailer, get food and feed and kennel.
