Every Wednesday evening at the time of year when the sun
stays awake for a long time, we go to a human gathering in a field in the
middle of town to listen to howling humans.
Quite a few attending this gathering understand that being safe is
important so they bring their security detail with them.
My girlfriend, Sierra just got a new little sister, Ruby
Sky. One of her parents is a Labrador, a
fish retriever like us and the other is a Husky so is related to a long line of
dogs, dedicated to pulling non-motorized human carriers in places covered with
lots of cold, white, fluffy stuff. Now,
Sierra may be a Californian free spirit, but she understands the importance of
finding the correct place to introduce a new pup to society, and Wednesday
night howling humans is definitely one of the best venues.
Tobermory is really quite taken with Ruby Sky. I guess it must be those blue eyes. I told him he’s being a cradle robber, but I
guess if I can have a girlfriend four years my junior, so can he. I think that there may be some double dating
in our future.
