And all is right with the world ... Sort of

morning on the beach

This morning I took the dog for a walk on the beach. Technically, dogs aren't allowed back on the beach until October, but if you get there early enough there's nobody to complain. The beach was deserted when we arrived, the outgoing tide had washed the sand smooth behind it, the air was crisp and clear and the sun was shining as it rose against a beautiful blue backdrop dotted with fluffy white clouds. It was just one of those gorgeous late-summer-in-New-England kind of mornings, the kind that make you want to breathe life deeply, that make you happy to be alive. By the time we left, there were quite a few other dogs and their owners heading down to or away from the beach. Everyone I met seemed to catch my eye and smile at me, as if good mornings were contagious.

When I got home I realized my fly was down.

Seriously, is it me or do they not make zippers the way they used to?

I find it rude that not one person told you kindly and stopped you from making others smile at you and make you feel even more embarassed.

Your dog looks very much like mine - we call her a Jorgi - half-corgi, half Jack Russell. ALL energy and full-hearted appetite for living. Every 6am she still wants to lick me with joy when she sees me: me face not-yet-unfolded, cornflakey eyes and dragon breath. I couldn't ask for a better mate! (Kath from Oz)
