I Love Puppies and Chicken

Had a busy day yesterday. Got up, made a list and then just started going through them and checking them off. One of them was my friend Fahey was bringing over her new puppy to show me. Her name is Natalia. She is a 16 week old Great Dane. She already weighs 36 pounds and is almost as tall as Riley, who is a 6 year old lab who weighs 86 pounds. She's so cute!

Riley and Natalia playing together.

Later in the afternoon met up with Amy for a ride. It was blazing hot and humid. After 2 hard days of riding, I wasn't sure how this was going to go. We tried to take as many shaded trails as possible stay out of the fields of fire. Unfortunately, though we had shade, we also had thick humid heavy air that just hung with no breeze. And yes I complained a lot. But it was fun.

Even better was after the ride when Amy pulled out some left over Walt's chicken she had brought. It was so good.

See I'm smiling. mmm...Amy had a little frothy beverage to wash hers down too.

All gone.
