Morning Walks

 

I'm enjoying our morning walks much more now that the weather has turned cool and crisp. There are no spectacular fall colors where I live, the leaves on my only deciduous tree, a cottonwood, turn yellow, and that's all.

 

Some days we walk along the fence line at the bottom of my property and uphill a bit, but not as far as before. I often stay on my road, which goes around the house and circles back to my gate. There are no flat roads on my property, so I do get a small workout. 

Faith doesn't care, she has no idea what it means to go for a walk, she always runs. 

I love our morning walks/runs.  

Faith: I do too, but it bugs me when you forget we need to go and just stay in bed with your computer or need to go to town and see someone called a doctor or a grocery store. 

Me: Well, sometimes people have other things to do. And I buy bananas and dog food and treats in the grocery store. 

Faith: Seems to me like there should be time for both.

Me: You are not wrong about that.

Faith: I'm never wrong.
