The weather has turned here on my Island and with the smell of Fall in the air and leaves starting to twirl down onto the trails I think it is time to think of leaving.
We went for a walk in the meadows today and the earth smelled of damp and mushrooms. An army of snails greeted us on the road...black and beige and camouflage colours. They never have much to say even though I sniff at them ...still they are not aggressive and allow us to pass without a problem. Spider webs cross the paths and stick to my fur...diamond rain droplets shine on leaves and trees....the grass is green again and flattened. Our flowers are hanging and sort of finished looking...our tomatoes have split from too much moisture. It thundered and lightened last night and today ....All these are signs for a mature dog to think of leaving.
Mom says the damp moisture is good for her skin but I feel the damp in my mature bones and I think of the warmth of the Tubac sun. DOD says his bones don't like the change in weather either (he also has mature bones).
I want to take Margaret and Tansy with me because I think they would like the sun and warmth as much as I do. ....We will have adventures together......I must devise a plan.
