Dang it's cold...

Whee doggies Jethro it's cold and with a nice wind and freezing drizzle also just kinda' miserable. So what better thing to do than take D. Daphne Dog for a photo ride and then over to my Mom's to fetch her up for a ride for her too. Her ride was out to Manor Park Retirement Center to visit with our retired church leader Dr. Ray Riddle and his wife. Sounds rather ho-hum and so it is, but after my Dad's death I have much gratitude that I'm here and able to do some small things like this for my Mom. Besides, Dr. Riddle is an inspiring guy.
Though in his 80's Ray is always full of life, homespun wisdom and never a touch of pessimism in his voice. In short, the kind of person I enjoy being around. On a cold and dreary winters day, a nice afternoon out for Dog, Granny and Me.
