While the weather holds, Sparky thought we should go for a car ride to the Towpath.

My apple trees really came through this year. As I was picking them, Sparky decided to get in on the action. He likes the idea of apples, but doesn’t actually eat them.
Most of the apples will go to feeding the deer, but some looked so good, I’m making apple butter.
I have a blog because I got a dog. Sparky is a great dog and I can go on about him. I have a blog so I can write about having a dog without boring everyone to death. I can’t imagine how a mundane article like this gets column space in the Wall Street Journal, but of course I read it.
I am not now, nor have I ever been, a dog person. One of my earliest memories of a dog is from when I was around 5 years old and a neighbor’s golden retriever knocked me face-first into the concrete.
I underestimated my sneaky puppy. This morning, I posted about Sparky being a picky eater, but he’s way beyond that. Before taking Sparky out for his evening walk, I saw this.
That’s something that was supposed to be theoretically impossible. A beagle looking wistfully out the window while a bowl of food is right there.
After the refrigerator delivery, I thought Sparky might be racist, and this didn’t help
While I was log splitting, I was listening to Ice Cube on Joe Rogan’s podcast. They were talking about the movie, Friday. that Cube wrote and starred in. I hadn’t seen it for a long time, so I’m watching it now. I forgot how funny it is. Every character seems like a real person who probably lived on his street when he was growing up. They are exaggerated versions, and all those events wouldn’t have happened in a single day, but it’s all plausible, funny shit.
Sparky can’t resist Mr. Moose, so I exploit his love to challenge his intellect.
It’s a full moon, so dogs gotta howl. Next time, we’ll wait until it gets dark.
