Walkabout

Feeling a little blue the other day I decided to head out for a walk by myself, sans doggies...
The season is changing in full force and I hoped that my pictures would capture it, but they haven't. There is still so much green in them that you don't notice the browns and oranges yet, but they are still pretty so I figured I'd post them.
It was a lovely walk. Leaves were falling in such numbers that it sounded like it was raining.

I call this next photo "Are you there God? It's me..little tree"






There are a LOT of squirrels and chipmunks about at the moment and so Penny has become quite a handful on walks: she pulls constantly.
I have bought a gentle leash which goes around her nose and so when she pulls she's pulling her own head downwards. It's stopped the pulling, but she's getting used to it. We are just going for short strolls around the neighborhood as she gets used to it and so we often look like this
Hopefully she'll get used to it soon, it's rather embarrassing and I'm sure some people think I'm being cruel to her. She is not in any pain whatsoever, she just wants the band off her nose so she can pull where she wants.

  1. These pictures remind me why Matt didn't want to move to the desert with me because he likes green landscape so much.

  2. We saw lots of colours forming on our drive back from NC to Canada. Once in Canada the trees which turn yellow (aspens?) are in full colour and absolutely gorgeous.
