Ms. Willow and Me

22 White-winged Doves

Dr. K had a meeting this morning so it was Ms. Willow and me on the daily trek.  We saw, and later heard, the Basset woman and her hounds barking (the hounds barking, that is) as they descended the long dirt road.  We spotted no one else during the outing.  The weather was damp and slightly cold after last night's rain.  The wind, though inconsistent, had a bite to it, and the pup and I were glad to get the hike over and done with today.
