Evening
It was a cold, blustry day today and riding in that isn’t the best. We bundled up, plugged in the heated riding gear and we were on our way. It was nice to get out even in the cold and just ride. Bob and I both turned in our mileage for the Road Warrior program and also signed in for the first Polar Bear run of the season. After we signed in we road for coffee and came home. We weren’t gone very long but that wind takes a lot out of you. We pretty much crashed the rest of the afternoon.
The dogs all appreciated and hot dinner tonight and when I go out to the kennel later I will make sure all the dogs are nice and toasty and get extra biscuits and hugs.
I am off for the night, have a great evening.

Good morning everyone. It is a cold one outside, the wind is blowing and there have been scattered flurries occasionally.One of my clients told me them temps are going down into the 20’s the next few days, brrrrrr now it beginning to feel like winter.
On mornings like this I think the dogs really appreciate that warm breakfast. None of the dogs were out except to potty this morning. I don’t think they care for the wind.
I told you yesterday this week I would tell you about our birds. Meet Precious

Precious and her partner Spike(Cockateils) who I will share with you tomorrow live in the same cage together. Way back, we wanted a smaller bird and when we went to the breeder she was moving and gave us a deal on three Cockateils. We took all three but sadly after 3 years little Cinnominnie passed away. Precious can be very sweet but she tends to be cage bound and never wants to leave her cage, besides Spike calls for her and she goes back to him. She is a plain grey, orange cheeks and greyish crest. She has laid several clutches of eggs but none have ever hatched. She sits on the nest, turns the eggs but nothing. She loves being sprayed with the water bottle, she hangs upside down, spreading her wings so you can spray her more. She is one of those birds you never hear making noise, she is just “Precious”
We are off for a bit, we need to turn in our mileage for the Road Warrior program and also this kicks off the Polar Bear motorcycle riding season.
Have a great day everyone.
