Yesterday i started to take Abbey out for her walk and when i got out of the house I realized it was raining. Instead of playinf chicken I donned my rainwear and took her out anyway. the dog didn't mind getting we at all. She did her usual gopher patrol and was really wet when i brought her home. A quick drying with her old towel solved that and she was allowed into the house.
Last night just before the Queen came home I was awakened by the sound of hail. When the Queen got home she said it wasn't fun driving home in the hailstorm. I'll have to check my bedding plants I planted yesterday to see if they were damaged.
Well time to go have a coffee with the Queen she's just been called into work early.
