On Friday
and Saturday, I took the chi trio to the dog park. Tiny Dog insisted I carry her for the second
half of the park loop, princess that she is. But their joy at being at the park
was infectious: bursts of running and circling back, panting and smiling, eyes
bright. I wanted to stay all day.
Today, the
six of us went to a city park. Three happy Chis and Atticus with his tongue
hanging out. Sue had a crazy idea. She
wanted Atticus to pull her while she sat on my new longboard. This fun only
lasted a few minutes. He looked perplexed: Do what? Go where? With you?
Thankfully she had on gloves and a helmet because she tipped right over. Kablam.
So I skated instead, and those
that know me, will be concerned. I have terrible balance. But I am getting
better! And this is part of the longboarding plan as well.

And despite
being 43, I am not buying a sports car. A board and a new cool helmet will do. Tiny Dog raced behind me as I slowly toodled down the bike path on a secluded
section. One could walk faster on foot.
But she smiled up at me, like she had at the dog park, and who could ask for
more?
