Under the weather with a bad case of the Colonblowro Virus since Wednesday, so today, feeling much better, I took advantage of the window of sun in the afternoon to take myself and the dog for a walk. Not a long one, a little bit less than an hour, but enough to feel enlivened by the fresh air and bands of blue sky. Down the powerline and as far into the ravine trails as Maggie’s bare paws would allow. Overhead, lots of waxwings flying in lockstep looking for fermented berries. Met up with a couple of border collies, one of whom looked sorely disappointed to discover that Maggie was no sheep. Sorry boy, just a mix breed shepherd in search of rabbit poop.
