Fall - on steroids
At this time of year, we're accustomed to nice fluffy light things falling down around us -- leaves! But this year, we are in constant danger (when outside) of nasty hard things falling down on us -- acorns! I've never seen so many acorns. I've been discussing it this week with Kim. This morning, the Boston Globe ran a story about the acorn glut.
Still, the weather is actually delightful! This morning we went to Great Brook State Park with the three dogs and the map from last week's orienteering event. We did some trails that I hadn't really known about before last week and we never met a soul on those trails. It was wonderful. Cooper (and Puga) had a wonderful time romping about. We discovered that, in addition to new people (women especially), Cooper is apprehensive about horses and bikes. The corn stalks as not quite as high as an elephant's eye, but it's getting up there.
We found that Cooper loves ice cream too (no big surprise there). Cindy ate a huge amount of it too. Kim also found out this morning at the vet/groomers where Cooper was getting his nails clipped that we aren't the only ones that think he's a super handsome nice dog! Apparently, there's a friend of one of the groomers who's looking for a dog. We'll have to see what happens.
Incidentally, I'm sitting here with five dogs (the muppets are here while K & K are at a concert) and all is quiet. It's great that they all get along!
