I used to think we should have 4 week months, with the left-over days bunched together at the end . The trouble with that would be we would have 13 months, and, if the months started on Sundays, every month would have a Friday the 13th. I'm no... Read more
Watching You

After yesterday's just over 30000 steps (and my FitBit said "congratulations! can you go 5000 more?" Sheesh!!), I stayed up past midnight, getting the kinks out. Pups and kits tried to wake me up around 0600, my usual stirring time. Cracked an ... Read more

We took a shorter walk today - thought the pups and I needed a semi-rest - 4.2 miles in 97 minutes. Heard some Roberta Flack on the radio when I was out and about today. This is one of my favorites. Roberta Flack, 1973 Jesse, come ... Read more
Walking on Sunshine
Sunday, September 08, 2013      8 comments

Took the pups for 5.3 miles today. Spartacus, the little weasel, dragged butt a few times (I'm tired, I'm old, I can't walk any further) so he ended up getting carried about 15 minutes out of the 2 hours. Except for trying to turn off the trail ... Read more

This was supposed to be Roger Miller's favorite song that he wrote & recorded. Another lovely bit of nonsense and humor in a country twang! You can't rollerskate in a buffalo herd You can't rollerskate in a buffalo herd You can't rol... Read more

Another hit by Roger Miller from 1966 - a novelty song he later claimed he wrote in 4 minutes in his hotel room. The best parts for me was him going "beep beep beep bedopa beep beep beep" Well here I sit high gettin' ideas Ain't nothin'... Read more
