Three times lucky

What a very long day this has been! Instead of our usual two routes, we did three, the third one being at night. The first one involved another mall and the ever-popular escalators! Oh yes, and the truly annoying back boots which we had to wear! We managed to lose one again, but it got found, of course! I'm thinking that I need to work on putting them on tightly, if I'm going to have her wear them at all. With all the nsnow and ice, and the salt used to control it, I think we'll need to! I have pretty much given up on having her find the boot when she loses it! First, she doesn't tell me, and it's not obvious. And second, even if I caught it immediately, I'm pretty sure she'd put on her most vapid expression, and assure me that she hadn't a clue where it might be, or even what it might look like! Boots? Never heard of 'em!
 
This afternoon, Kaye and I went to the ATM, Which talked and worked perfectly, which is still a great novelty for me! Then to a little cafe where we got cold drinks. The dogs were perfect! We only saw an instructor long enought to oint out the ATM, which we hadn't been to before. It was great to just kick back in a public place and enjoy, knowing that we had totally well-behaved puppies beside us!
 
The night walk was fun, and very uneventful. Basically we just went where we go in the daytime, but in the dark. It doesn't seem to bother the dogs much. I also played a few songs for Kaye that I have recorded, which was fun.
 
Tomorrow we go to Portland! Love it! To train in a place that I totally know, where I worked for many years, will be a treat! I've never done that before. Greatly looking forward to it. But for now, I must go to sleep! Can't think straight! Being tired is a good thing! Night all!
