Skipping the morning walk on a scorching summer Saturday

This morning I skipped my daily walk. I didn’t skip instead of walk, I didn’t walk at all as I have been walking every morning all week. It could be that today is hotter than it’s been, but in the morning, it’s not so hot, so, that’s a lame excuse. And I didn’t skip the morning walk because I’m lame.


Zamboni, our chocolate Labrador Retriever, and I took his short morning walk. It’s short in distance but not in time. He turns ten in a few days and for him, a short distance is a now a long walk. It’s after I return him to the house and settle him in that I then embark on my own long walk over a long distance.
