Morning Walk Adventure 12/23/2007
This morning, we got up early to go out walking. It was still dark when we started.
Daddy made me put on my raincoat and blinking lights. I need them both in the rain and wind and dark.
I wanted to see how my squirrel friends were doing in the storm. It was very wet everywhere.
I checked all the trees in the park. Where are Mr. Squirrel and Mrs. Squirrel?
I even looked under the trees, where there was some shelter from the wind and rain. “Anybody home?”
I sniffed and listened.
I even sat down and waited patiently, trying to be very still and quiet.
We kept walking and looking...
I was getting very wet, even with my raincoat on.
Finally, we did meet a squirrel. He was eating seeds.
I was so excited that I barked. I couldn’t help myself. I was so glad to see one of my friends.
He ran up the tree, but stopped to say hello.
I was so glad he was OK. I think he said hello, but I’m not sure. I don’t speak squirrel.
Daddy and I were both cold and getting very wet. So we hopped in the car.
I curled up in the front seat for the ride home. So nice to be in my car, out of the rain.
Daddy held me and smooched me on the way home.
When we got home I was very hungry. Momma had my food ready. BREAKFAST!
Home, dry and warm. It’s time for a nap.
