dog walking in every kind of weather

Living with a dog is a great way to get in touch with nature. We've found that we have a greater interest in the weather forecasts since Penny came to live with us.

In winter, we need to know whether there's going to be a break in the rain so we can head out and not come home soaked.

But it's in summer that we really keep and eye on the forecasts. If it's going to be a stinker of a hot day, which has been the case lately, we need to walk and be home before about 8a m. It was about 30º C this morning by that time. That's about 80º Fahrenheit.

Lately we've been getting less exercise ourselves, because if we leave it a bit late to walk, we simply take Penny to the river. She swims while we sit around.

Here in nj it is freezing outside. We always seem to forget its summer for some blog friends when it's winter here. We hope u get to enjoy those swims in the lake in the nice weather.

Lassie and Benjie, one of the things I like about blogging is that I get to see how it is to live in different parts of this lovely world of ours.
