sunshine sunday




today was a good day. it failed to rain, there was some blue sky
and at times the sun actually shone. this is ayrshire in november,
what more could one ask for!

today me, myself and the animal doctor took her wonderful hounds
for a walk. have you ever met an otter hound? they are big,
really big and hairy and exuberant. they have longish, shaggy
coats which seem to attract every drop of available wetness.so, on
a sunny day one might start off with a dry, fluffy hound and half an
hour later be walking with a rather wet and bedraggled hound.
let them off the leash and they are off following their
noses! their stride simply eats up the ground, before you know
it they are away in the far distance, mostly they find their
way back to you...
sometimes, the younger one does not return of his own accord
and one might spend some considerable amount of time relocating
the not so wee bastard!

life is good.
