Just as it should be, upon arrival Wednesday eve, the Sees Milk Bordeaux are served. Robin, Jenn, and Sue gabbed until the wee hours. I went to bed in prep for the Turkey Trot in the AM.
Thanksgiving started with the annual Richmond Road Runners 10K Turkey Trot, and I was happy with my times, a 10:10 per mile pace... Not bad for an old codger.
Once I got back home the girls had most everything ready for the impending feast, and all I had to do was fire up the grill and chuck the turkey in.
Then it was off to the rivah with the Robin, Jenn, Nuala, and JJ. Those pups made the Tasmanian Devil look slow.
Back at the house after the puppies swim we tied up a few loose ends... unfinished brewskis, carving the bird, baking Jenn's Pumpkin Cake, checking Blackberries, and posing for the obligatory pre-feast photo.
The Guests of Honor Robin and Jenn, along with a picture of the puppies having worn themselves out on the deck.
Friday started off rainy and slow which was just fine with everyone. By midday the rain had moved east and we took a 2 mile walk to the Forest Hill Park lake, the river, and back to the house, The puppies of course made good use of the water and assorted sticks they found.
OBSERVATION: Puppies never ever get tired.
