As the temperatures drop into the 30s here, we’re all finding our cozy spots. For Yuzu, this means the soft blanket on the massage chair. She’ll need to vacate it soon, though, because I need that space! 😄
Not TacoCat. Anko had to check out our enchilada dinner tonight which was okay at first, but then she started rubbing up against my shoulder while I was trying to eat which made it a bit more difficult.
Anyways, this time I made two types of enchiladas: ground beef with red sauce, and Oaxaca Rallado cheese with Hatch green sauce. Both were pretty good!
I hope you had a good day!
Lakewood Park recently opened in the city of Leander and we decided to check it out in the evening. It’s really nice! There’s a lot to do there, including fishing, kayaking, a skate park, a splash pad, walking trails, and a dog park with three enclosed areas.
We took Lani there and she really enjoyed the walk and the dog park. She doesn’t see a lot of other dogs (our fault), but she did great! There was only one close encounter with two other dogs, who were sniffing her, but Lani just had a nervous growl and we led her away (she was still on-leash).
There weren’t a lot of people there, so when one of the dog enclosures was empty, we let Lani roam free off her leash. She was kind of tired at that point so she just explored slowly, and she was so good… every time I told her to come, she came straight to me. 😀
Besides having fun with Lani, Koa and I threw the baseball for 20 minutes or so while Mariko and Lani strolled around the park. We chatted with a fisherman who was packing up, and he said it was rare to see people throwing a baseball at the park, but as a former high school baseball player, he was happy to see us playing.
All-in-all, it was a good, socially-distanced evening!
Here’s another of Anko’s frequent napping locations. It looks a little nicer than her last one.
A cold front arrived in Central Texas, which forced me to put on long pants and some house slippers. I really like this dog design on the slippers, and of course the real dog. 😀🐶
