Sunday Run Day

It is very difficult to convince Athena to sleep in on the weekends. I try to tell her all the good dogs are still asleep, but usually I give in and we head for Fort Williams fairly early, even on a Sunday morning. This morning, Athena was delighted to find her friend Gibson (the yellow lab, above, with Athena as "It" in a rousing game of tag). Today it all ended well. Athena has been known to get Gibson into trouble, one time leading him off into the woods, which caused

Gibson's owner to hunt for him for a good half hour.

As you can see here on the right, Gibson is the picture of a good dog. Athena is like a kid at school you wish your kid would not hang out with.

Thanks to Gibson today for giving Athena a good work out. It will help her to be patient on a long boring day traveling to take her human sister back to school. Good dog, Gibson!
