Sunday

 A little angel on a fluffy cloud.

Late afternoon geese gathering on the pond. 

This time we took Toby with us so he wouldn’t have to figure out how to open the door and start the car. 

We sat out in the driveway to enjoy the warmth. It was 76 degrees and mostly sunny. Within minutes we got so sleepy that we came inside to nap. It never happened but it was a good thought.

 

While John continues to recuperate from his toe injury, I took a walk mid-morning. I took the Curlew bridge from our neighborhood, walked down Curlew, took the Pinellas Trail south, and then came back home via Palm Boulevard.

 

 

Then the three of us rode our bikes to Weaver Park.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We hooked Toby’s trailer up to John’s electric bike hoping Toby would tolerate it better than the last time we tried it. I think he was a little better. Not sure why he prefers to be behind my manual bike. Maybe the noise scares him.

Early this morning we drove to Wall Springs Park for a walk with Toby.

Best park path in the county.

Tonight is our neighborhood’s night for Santa to come by on the fire truck, sirens blaring. Last night he was nearby, and it drove Toby bonkers. He whined and whined and roamed the house driving us both nearly insane. He was terrified. 

So we turned up the music and built a fort (dog den) that we hope will comfort him tonight. 

And there goes the fire truck with lighted golf carts following behind. This was in lieu of the annual Christmas parade. 

We made another tossed salad to go with our beans and rice.
