Bring on spring. While there are years in Atlantic Canada where spring is conspicuously absent, in 2012 we are having a real and wonderful spring. On this day, it was accompanied by winds that roughed up the lakes and even Halifax Harbour - an impressive sight that reminds us of the power of our ubiquitous water area. It was a day to sort through appointments and necessities so the Regalridgemobile zipped off to the village and on to the city. Costco is now empty so save your pennies and let them restock. Lunch with Reg at Jim's gave the opportunity to admire the whitecaps on Bedford Basin - something not seen all that frequently and always impressive. Chantelle stopped by to assist Lee with computer processes, resulting in the addition of information to the e-reader - let's hear it for the next generation! Amazing what they can accomplish.
The kennel is busy and ably managed by little Bella. Scarlett continues to be amazed by her firm control and gazes at the little fluffy dog in wonder. Sarah shakes her head. Wee Margaret and Shillelagh encourage Bella's attitude - like she needs encouragement. Zeus and Crockett would like to be shed of all females and are plotting revenge, hopefully saved for their owner's return. Sadie is packing but will miss her spins with Trebia. Liard is enjoying his walks to and from the big yards - a first for Liard.
The house dogs are well and happy. Piper is so relieved to have Lee home that she can barely keep her eyes open. Abigail is playing happily and jumping around corners to get a game going. Patti is doing well, pleased with the warm temperatures and her opportunity to spend more time outside. Charlotte echoes Patti's pleasure in warmer weather, preferring to be outside every possible moment. Gabe is simply Gabe, not noticing that there is anything different since every day is a good day.
Dinners have returned to normal to Our Ken's delight. On this day it was ham with new potatoes in herb butter, asparagus with asiago, fresh tomato casserole with rosemary and balsamic glaze and grilled pineapple. Cream puffs for dessert. And on we go . . .
