Sunday

This afternoon, John rode his bike to Weaver Park at the end of my workout. Together we rode to Dollar General to get Fourth of July decorations for the go cart. John did the decorating.

We took the decorated cart for a spin to see if everything stayed on the cart.

We ended up at Highlander Park, so Toby got a walk.

We left the house on bike to go get our Chinese takeout at the Causeway Plaza. The skies were threatening, but the future radar led us to believe that things were moving south, away from us. 

It looked iffy all the way, and the moment we got in the restaurant, the bottom fell out. We lingered for a while hoping it would blow over quickly and we could ride home and eat, but after a period of time, it became apparent that we were stuck. So we got plastic forks and napkins and dined inside the restaurant. Then we waited some more. Finally, we headed back home in a light sprinkle. By the time we got back on the Pinellas Trail, it was mostly over, and we had a drama-free ride home. It wasn't the plan for dinner, but we improvised.

We were able to walk Toby one last time without getting rained on. The next nine days, except for Tuesday, look pretty much the same: late afternoon thunderstorms.

Toby practiced his downs and getting in his crate. I brought out the sardines again. He had a good day. He roamed free in the house while we were cornered at the Causeway Plaza. He found John's new tube of toothpaste and punctured it. I don't think he got much in his mouth. It probably didn't taste very good.
