I'm afraid that if I mess with the picture entry, the picture will vanish. I'm still not sure how I managed to get it from Mary's Facebook page to here. Surely my accomplishment is a technological wonder.
In any case Mary and I went to Michael and Katie's for brunch around 12:30 p.m. Their two dogs were wonderfully friendly. Kipper the lapdog managed to bounce into my lap at one point and even let me love on him a bit; Rascal the very large overly friendly and extremely loveable doggie dog sat next to me so I could scratch his ears and pat his head frequently. Full of strange dog odors then, I came home and was set upon by my good buddy Simon who is usually too comfortable to bestir himself: "Oh, it's you." Not today. I plopped down on the love seat after releasing Schuster, and Simon was there, on my lap, sniffing me from head to toe. He even got his head stuck between my leg and the seat trying to get at the new smells. Nice to be an object of interest to him for a change.
