77 To 57 & Vlad Going Crazy


     Today's high temp is supposed to be 77 F and tomorrow's is forecast to be a mere 55 F, a 20 degree drop in 24 hours., more or less as a high. After almost 3 months of near high record temperatures, we're expecting our frsrt frost of the year this coming Sunday morning.

     Yesterday late morning I was parked on the sofa, watching the idiot box when my boy , Vlad the Jack Russell terrier came running in yapping and doing his "crazy dance". I asked him what he wanted, he answered but as usual I didn't understand what he was saying. First guess, I fed him and Bella, my Dachshund and they were happy for  moment. Then Vlad came back dancing and telling me something which I again didn't understand. I filled their water bowl and again they were content... for a moment.
     Later when I went to take some clothes off the "redneck dryer" aka clothes line, Vlad waited until I got to the line then jetted past me as if he'd been shot from a cannon!
     That's when I knew he was feeling the season, that the heat wave was past and he was ready to run crazy! He would run crazy past me and I would call to him

, "Run crazy, boy!" and to Bella, "Run crazy, Get Vlad!"
     After about 10 minutes or so, I'd had enough of running crazy so I called them in.
It was no more than 2 minutes after we came in I looked around for Vlad and Bella and found them sacked out in bed, awaiting Papa to come lay down with them.

     It's getting a bit nippy here come evening time to sunrise so I've turned my heater/Ac unit to "heat". In the daytime, it's still comfy with doors n windows open but we need a bit of heat to sleep.

     Who knows? Maybe I'll actually begin cooking indoors soon instead of on the grill or smoker.
