Our big baby girl Chai turned 15 today !  I’mn very prud to be her doggie dad.. She is the best dog girl and one of the best friends I’ve ever had.. . I’d say she’s  doing great  for a 105 year old (in dog years.). She went for a 7 mile walk with us  today and a 6 mile walk yesterday..   She is such a sweet, sweet presence in out life. We love you chai-baby !

 

we made her a little birthday dinner 

 

 

then took her. satori karen and jeff (who were all off leash) .. on a walk up the little river history trail . 

 

 

satori was wondering why there was ll the fuss being made about her sister.. we made sure she had a good day too , 

 

colors were just past peak.. 

 

 

 

 

fungus !

so great hanging out with Jeff and Karen. 

 

we took them to the old steam saw up in the woods. 

 

 

 

 

I checked and there was still a samston in the geocache 

 

 

 

looking down the old well.. I think you can see a samstone or two down there,. 

 

as we left the park we were invited to go tour the control house for the waterbury dam.. it’s just turning 80 years old. 

 

it’s sucha  cool art deco building.. built to stop the floods that used to threaten to destroy our house. 

 

then out to indian food in burlignton for old tiems sake.. Jeff, karen, diane and I ate a whole lotta indian food when we all lived in england !

 

ok.. time for sleep now.. we’re all pleasantly worn out

more tomorrow

 

happy birtday again chai-baby !

 

nite all, nite sam
