Happy feet

USATODAY.com launched a pet blog today. The dog paws in the photo illustration at the top belong to Zorro. Not sure whose cat that is. Zorro was very patient while Denny took many pictures of his feet.

Quiet night last night after a raucous night before. I usually hang a sheet over the bay window but this week the moon is an angle that causes it to shine through the window above the front door. I became aware of his fact around 1 AM, when I was awakened by an explosion of moon barking. It took several "come aways" and cloud cover to calm him down. Last night, I taped a pillow case over the window.
Storm clouds this morning so Zorro was initially reluctant to go far from the back gate. We loitered there until a woman with a little black curly-haired dog strolled by and followed them into the park. Then, jackpot: a guy sped by on his bike, with his dog running along side him. It just doesn't get any better than that. We ran after them for a while, then took a detour by the tennis courts, where we picked up a woman running with a large terrier. Returned home tired but energized.
