A Dog and His Boy . . .
Jan and I are really enjoying our days here in the woods. After being on the go almost constantly for the last two weeks since we left Cottonwood and the Verde Valley Thousand Trails, it’s nice to just do nothing for a while. Of course that will only work for so long with me, so I’m already putting together a list of projects I want to try to get to, and also some of the parts I’ll need.
About 2:30. the Ranger came by to tell us that they’re shutting down one of the bathhouses until the weekend so they can repaint. I would have asked him about these ‘phony’ 50 amp hookups here, and if we could possibly move to a real 50 amp site, but earlier Jan had told me that she’d rather stay here and tough it out than to pack up and move.
So here we stay.
Today was a good bit cooler with the high only getting up to about 93. and tomorrow’s only supposed to get to 89 degrees. Later in the afternoon we did get some rain, and it’s the same forecast for tomorrow.
But then it’s supposed to be back in the high 90’s the rest of the week.
Our daughter Brandi sent over this photo of Landon and Kitty, entitled A Boy and His Dog.
But I think it should really be called A Dog and His Boy, since I think Kitty thinks that Landon belongs to her rather than the other way around. I know when we first visited Landon at home after he’d been born, Kitty would not let us, or anyone for that matter, near Landon until Brandi or Lowell told Kitty we were OK. Otherwise she would use her 130 pound body to block us, pushing us away.
Now they’re more like brother and sister, fighting over toys, pushing each other off the sofa, and chasing around the house.
Of course they’ve been together for a long time.
