We decided to do some serious porch sitting. Margaritas in hand, reading material ready, we secured the porch pooches and prepared to relax.
Lola and Franklin didn't quite get the "relax" memo, and stood guard. Protecting their turf and trying to lure all passing dogs up the stairs to play. Including my current neighborhood obsession, Bento, the 3-month old French Bulldog who might be the cutest thing I've ever seen.

Eventually the gentle breezes soothed them into relaxation, at least until the next dog walked by.
How did you enjoy the weather?

We're not in Chicago, but the weather here's been nice as well. During the winter, we were taking the dogs for walks inside the garage of our apartment building, but with the warmer weather, we have started walking outside again.
ReplyDeleteYou must live someplace really cold to get that creative! I lived in MPLS for a year in a big apartment building and could imagine walking my dog in it to stay out of the cold.
DeleteOhhh man, I've always wanted a porch like yours! One day...:)
