Our walks

My dog and I have been walking every day along the creek. It is so nice. It takes about 40 minutes. Everytime she has to stop and swim in the water and stop to smell all sorts of smells. Lately there have been hundreds of grasshoppers. The all jump away with each step you take. Sometimes they land on you and then you can feel their scratchy legs pinching as they jump off of you. It is nice there have not been any mosquitoes. I just cannot bring myself to go out when there are swarms of mosquitoes. We are very lucky to live in a neighborhood surrounded on three sides by a creek.
