We’re a strange species aren’t we? We take so much for granted that, not only is it questionable whether we truly appreciate what we have, but also whether we take maximum advantage of our circumstances.
Yesterday (November 11), we decided to take full advantage of (what may be) our last warm day before Winter arrives. We decided to have a picnic down by the lake!
We have had many lovely days since May/June, but it took possibly our last warm day of the year to actually think about enjoying lunch down by the lake!

We think Ray is looking forward to the cooler temperatures, but would tolerate a picnic in these conditions as long as we share our food with him (which of course we did!).
Lovely picnic.

Picnic spots do tend to be less used in our Winter, and lakefront trails (on a cold day) are barely used so we have a great time. Don’t have to think about people and other dogs! 🙂

A picnic with his favorite peeps must be one of Ray’s greatest pleasures. Enjoy good weather while it’s available.

Ray is just so photogenic! Another great picture of you and him. Yay on the picnic. Who would think that it would be picnic weather in November! Fluffer nutters make good picnic food. 😉
