What a lovely weekend! Warm enough to air out the house and go hiking -- plenty of deer to be seen, and a muskrat far off yesterday and much closer today. We went to an astronomy talk Friday night on the large moons in the solar system, then got to see the Orion Nebula and Saturn and Titan through telescopes. Saturday, we went hiking on both easy and moderate paths (strenuous will have to wait for a weekend when my ankle isn't throbbing); today we went on the easy paths. Cute dogs everywhere, and birds, and more turtles sunning in the surprising warmth than I'd have expected. It was really nice.
Then Alysswolf IM'd me to tell me that Animal Planet was running the 'Puppy Bowl,' which has been hilarious. Puppies in a mock-stadium, playing with toys (lots of small footballs), and pawing at the glass waterbowl (with the camera under it!) and barking, and being rotated in and out as they get tired. Great fun if you get a chance to watch!
Now I'm off to write in between waiting for commercial on the Super Bowl. (Watch the game? Nah.)
