Warm spring weather arrived on time, 20 March. My morning walks with Hansel and Gretel before school are getting warmer. Sunrise temperatures are now in the mid 50s. This week we have reached the 80s and 90s are due next week. I'm not sure I'm ready for this heat. Even Sadie and Minnie are back to sleeping in the shower and bathroom tile floor and the puppies are starting to pant.
It's also Easter weekend. I had suggested leading a hike up Huachuca Canyon but then Theresa reminded me that this is Easter. I had nothing planned for today besides working around the house and then Susan reminded me that JEM'S feed had a vaccine clinic slated for today and both Zeke and Sweetie were already past due on their rattlesnake vaccine. Sweettie also needed her 3-year-old rabies vaccine. I got to Jem's at 1:15pm and was out of there 25 minutes later and $60 poorer. (Zeke weighs 58 pounds, Sweetie weighs 52). Susan was right behind me in line with her Allie. Together we drove down to the Hereford bridge to walk the three dogs down to the beaver dam and back.
I hopefully won't need to take any of the dogs to the vet now until June and July, when the pups will need their annual boosters and the puppies their first check-up.
I still want to explore Huachuca Canyon tomorrow. What started as a public hike will now be a private hike with just a few people. I'm a little worried it will get too hot and we may encounter snakes. I haven't hiked up that canyon in three years.
