Close to Home

Yesterday was a busy day for Mom. She had a lot of errands to run, but she promised me that as soon as she got back from the grocery store we would go for a little walk. The weather had been kind of lousy the day before so we didn't go anywhere. Since it was the weekend, and therefore a lot less busy on our busy street, Mom decided that we would stay close to home. It was great! We just went up, around the strip mall, through the high school and back. I didn't meet any new friends, but I haven't been around there in quite some time so there were plenty of new smells to be smelled. Plus, we got to see a swan building his nest. Mom stood there for a few minutes, and then we came home. Then I got to see my Uncle Troy!
