Strong Opinions

Tom can be a very opinionated fellow. Makes what he wants very well known. Amazing how one so silent, can be so clear. Take for example today’s walk. There is a small couple block neighborhood about a mile up the…

Summer vacation

Posted on: August 12, 2018 Last updated on: January 30, 2019 Written by: Katrin Comments: 0
Sometimes I forget how nice (and needed) it is to get away from the house until we go. One of my best friends was graduating from Canine Companions for Independence with her very first service dog and invited us to…

Not a Traffic Barrel

Posted on: June 13, 2018 Last updated on: June 13, 2018 Written by: Katrin Comments: 0
A lovely morning for a walk.  Tom guiding on my left, Dulce spaniel and Zora walking nicely on my right. Nearing the end of the walk, final stretch of sidewalk towards home.  I live on the main road through town,…

Posted on: April 23, 2018 Last updated on: January 30, 2019 Written by: Katrin Comments: 0
