It’s that time of year again, the birds are chirping……..the ground is thawing ………the river is sparkling, and Bart and I are in our glory.
As our world warms up we are all starting to get out, to exercise and enjoy the fresh air. Bart and I are getting ready for the for the summer. The long days…..the lake……..the barbecues………..and the hot steamy weather. Those days that we have been dreaming about while the snow was piling up all winter.
This year the signs of spring seem sweeter than ever, and jogging the streets of our beautiful city they are everywhere. It seems that before the snow and cold weather has lestened it’s grip on us, the fragile sprouts of the crocus, tulips and daffodils are popping up everywhere.
Now a golden Retriever is always aware of his surroundings but it is almost impossible to take him for a walk this time of year. The treasures that have been distributed by all of his counterparts this long winter are finally thawing and the odors are endless. Now Bart is pretty territorial, so he has a big job ahead of him. After having sniffed out the shrubs the other day he finally made it to our little patch of crocus. He probably would not have found them so interesting if there hadn’t been a Bacon treat (from his friend Rabyn) lying next to them. But I thought that the photo opportunity would be great.
So Bart and I recommend that you get out, take a walk and enjoy the best time of year!
