An Autumn Day



above - Jean; below - me


A beautiful, warm autumn day!
A blazing orange tree on the corner of our street,
and a view of the lake in the center of town;
My friend Jean and I walked Meadow in the park beside the lake.
Meadow loves to catch a tennis ball and chase leaves,
as she cavorts and rolls in the grass.
Such simple pleasures.
I used to be afraid of dogs,
but now that Meadow is my friend,
the fear is gone.
She's a lovely pooch -
a real princess!
What a great day!!

  2. What beautiful pictures!

    Isn't it wonderful what a sweet doggie can do to help you get over being afraid of dogs? I had the same experience with my girfriend's dog many years ago. He was such a great guy:)
