It was in the low 60's here (Phoenix, AZ) today and we went for a bike ride
to the park - about 3/4 mile away.
I've been taking our dog along too (our Vizsla), him trotting along beside
the bike, so he could get some much needed exercise. (yes I know that's
dangerous but I think we were both doing fine and under control).

When we got to the park, it was blissfully empty <g> but we found that they
had a fence around the playground equipment and this truck/tractor thing
started digging a deep hole. Our guess is that they're working on putting in
new playground equipment. Anyway, it was fun to watch and at least the
swings were available and the boys had fun with that for about a 1/2 hour.
Then we cycled home and were almost there when 2 dogs came out of a fenced
yard where the gate was open and starting barking at us. Oh, I HATE that! We
stopped and stood our ground and when it looked like it was safe and they
weren't going to run after us and attack us, we went on home. Irresponsible
pet owners....(mumbling and grumbling)
