Day One - A Walk on the Beach

Arrived late last night (1 am NY time) cranky and exhausted. Woke up this morning to a magnificent day – sun shining, not a cloud in the sky, 65 - 70 degrees. Birds were singing and flowers blooming – just beautiful!! Went for a walk on the beach - low tide – miles of beach – surfers surfing, kayakers kayaking, divers diving. Not much in the way of wildlife today – no pelicans, porpoises or seals – just humans playing in the sun enjoying life………no thoughts of politics, war or the economy……LIFE IS GOOD!

Popular Dog Magazine

Hi everyone...just thought I'd let you know that I did speak to a freelance writer regarding Mini-Schnauzers and dog therapy. I also sent her a bunch of pictures of Kinsey in action. The article will be in a magazine called Popular Dog. They also publish Dog Fancy. I believe the issue is dedicated to schnauzers and the therapy part is just one item. I also know that this won't be about Kinsey only. There were many other mini-schnauzers nationwide who are therapy dogs too..so hopefully Kinsey will be mentioned and there will be a picture. It sounded like we will be included because she's going to have a copy sent to us. The magazine will be out in May. The editors will decided which pictures to use...so we'll see!

Kinsey is shinning her paws in anticipation of having to "sign" copies of the article.

On a different note, you week dayers will see me more often in the next couple of months. I have vacation time from 2007 that I need to use up.
And I can't wait to use them...this week we had a fight outside the clinic, complete with a knife and police! See you on Saturday.......(2/9/08 - which is Eagle watch day)
