DOGGY FIX DAY FOR WEDNESDAY, 5-19-26

It really is not like I go out searching for doggy fixes but if one presents itself, my cell phone comes out lickety-split and I'm snapping away. My thanks to the gentleman and his intrepid little traveler who made my day.


When I mentioned to Gregg that sweetie
here didn't look like he had a safety harness, he guessed that it really wouldn't be that safe if the bike toppled and the dog couldn't jump out. So, I wished them both happy and safe travels on their journey around the neighborhood. Thankfully the speed limit is only 25 mph and even lower when approaching the speed bumps. 


We also were not that close but because there were at times cars parked on each side of the road, it was difficult to pass where the road narrowed, and especially when there were other cars coming in the opposite direction.




Shortly after that, they turn right as we drove straight on. We both agreed that our sweet pooch certainly looked in his element, and was enjoying his ride.


Thanks for visiting and 
I hope your day is a great one!

OUT AND ABOUT

 I thought I would do a shorter version of our around and abouts from last week. I have numbered each photo in the corners.

No. 1 & 2: Gregg fancied an ice cream. He recently found a place in Vienna, which is about a half-hour ride from home. They make theirs on the premises. This is our second time and we again ordered a couple of scoops of their coffee, one of the best coffee ice creams we have ever had. It is a fun place. In another section of the shop, they have shelves of items that you can paint, and there are get-togethers to do just that, as you can see from all the people sitting at the table. 

No. 3: As for me, I fancied a coffee on the way home, so we went through their drive-thru. I take photos of everything as you probably know by now.

No. 4: We noticed this couple riding along at a steady speed on electric bicycles. Gregg is very interested in them and said to take a photo so that we could see the make. I took several because the grass was high, but I finally got one with the make branded on the side. He is very interested in the ones that fold, so that you can put them in the trunk. Can I see myself on an electric bicycle knowing that I can easily fall out of my shoes, mentioned several times before? Not really but he has not given up yet. When I said as much, he is now looking for electric tricycles for me. Okay my Sweet, don't hold your breath. Am I being a tad naughty, yes but I honestly don't see it happening. I should add, stay tuned.

No. 5: I noticed the shadows on my dog figurines, thought they looked really interesting. See the last sentence in No 3.

No. 6: About 30 years ago I bought this little fox trinket box. He looks a bit cross, but I still enjoy him. 

No. 7 & 8: over the last few months we have been watching this large structure being built. Every time we passed by, we had a guessing game as to what it was going to be. Finally, a sign appeared. Neither of us thought of dogs. Those pups are going to have plenty of room to move around but he who is wide eyed with shock, wants to know where do the cats go?

You can enlarge my collage for more details.

Nothing too exciting but a good week. I hope you had and are having a wonderful one.
