I absolutely love that picture!

Sorry I had to cut & run last night (sheesh, sounding like a liberal). A friend of mine needed some help in another lab.

I used it for a tribute for Mozart Lover's son who is deployed. I like it also! VERY HOT here again today. Canceled PM movie/dinner date. Dogs are very stressed out with heat just in yard in shade so we all came it. I want to punch out some more yard work but they go crazy if I leave them in alone.. so next best option.. take a nap!

broke my toe (stress fracture) Kayaking on Sunday. Had one before so know the symptoms etc. Life will carry on.. just know what to do to avoid further stressing it. My water shoes were just too tight & I think with reduced bone mass (old lady osteoporosis?) I just broke.

dogs did okay kayaking. As oliver didn't teach them, they did not know they could/would be in kayak, when they got tired.... so they ran the shore most of time. Then halfway into upstream paddle Josy decided to swim behind kayaks.. VERY HEAVY CURRENT that she swam into. .. cut the trip a bit shorter due to that. going back with strong current behind pushing was easy & fast for all of us.

About a 3 hour outing for all of us. As my kayaking friend is not a super in shape person , that was just about right for him. I could have done at least double the trip.
