I was really disappointed about missing a nice sunshine walk this week. I knew this warmer weather wasn’t going to last. The cold was coming back, and it was coming quickly. It was bright and sunny this morning, but I heard the temperature was falling and the wind was going to pick up. Figuring this was my only chance for a walk until who knows when, I decided to go for it. Maybe we’d get stuck in the cold wind, but maybe we’d make it back in time. It was a risk worth taking.
And it was! The warm air, the sunshine on my face, the cool breeze. It was great. Ellie was all smiles and played peek-a-boo with me, too.  Once we got down by the river, there they were, the car river sitters. A whole line of them. It was good to be back. I found it funny how many of them still had their seatbelts on. If I was going to sit in a parked car by the river, I’d take my seatbelt off. Just sayin’.
The walk home was a bit windy, but we made it back before it got too bad. Ellie fell asleep, and stayed asleep when we got home. I don’t have any donuts, but in honor of the sun, I think I’ll have an orange instead.
