I made friends with a bunch of people this morning. They were from some kind of group home for people with special needs... I think. I was walking the dogs and we were making a short cut through the park and they were there enjoying the outdoors or something. One of them, a guy with Down's (I think)... he started petting Deimos, and the chaperon/nurse just smiled at me, so I let him. This was quickly followed by the rest of the group petting the other three, so of course I got stuck there for a while. But I didn't mind because they looked so happy, and the dogs of course were happy too. It made me smile.
