April weather
We've been experiencing astonishingly gorgeous weather here for the past three or four days. Yesterday was sunny, 75, and not humid at all. Flash and I went for a nice long walk, stopping at the halfway point to rest on a park bench along the river to enjoy the cool breezes. Flash has been showing all the tell-tale signs that signal the return of warm weather:
1. Trotting along happily until the half-way point on our walk when she suddenly down-shifts into ultra low gear and hangs her head like I'm slowly killing her.
2. Lots of panting. She was panting at the end of our walk yesterday as we went by Megan's house. She called us inside and Flash headed straight for the tile floor in their kitchen and collapsed onto her side.
3. After our walk this morning, she retired to the back room downstairs (which gets no sunlight because we always have the curtains closed) instead of hitting the couch per usual.
Today is gray, toasty, humid, and buggy, no doubt a harbinger of what's to come this summer. Argh.
