Kevin's musings

While I was out walking the dogs this evening I saw something that really looks annoying to me: There was a couple riding around on a fast looking motorcycle. The guy who was driving was wearing a full set of riding leathers (jacket, pants, gloves, boots) and a helmet. The girl riding behind him was wearing a tank top, shorts, and flip flops. I realize you may want to show off your nice new motorcycle to your girlfriend, but doesn’t that show that you could care less about her if you were to get in an accident? Doesn’t this occur to her when invited to go for a ride with no protection (which could have more than one meaning depending on context I suppose).

Got up nice and early (but not too early) today and went up to Edora park in Fort Collins for the CGC 2005 picnic. They usually have a bunch of vendors and vets and all kinds of stuff, but this year was different. They had the regular celebration planned, but then the massive kennel cough outbreak hit Colorado and they decided that it would be a bad idea to have all those greyhounds hanging out near each other. Especially when a recent racer might have been spreading the cough to the pet pups. So, they canceled that and just went with this informal one later in the summer. It was very nice. Lots of good folks and hounds to visit with. We did manage to reserve the baseball field and get to have a place for the dogs to run around really fast in.

Everyone had a very nice time. I got to see several of my old foster pups in their happy homes, in particular Freska (was Jessica), Coby and Petey were nice to see. Freska was very excited to see me, it was very cute.
