I woke up at 7:30 and got up to feed the cats and take Abby fora walk. We got over to the pigeon coops and their owner was there. We talked for at least half an hour. While we were talking Abby was running all over chasing birds, crossing and recrossing the trailer field, and running through the tall grass. She never stopped and covered a whole lot of ground. The pigeon guy was very impressed and said she looked like a really good dog.
Eventually we continued to walk. Abby got lucky. The pigeons were flying and she got the chance to chase several when we passed the coops.
When we got back we had breakfast and then left to go north. I took Abby's breakfast and dinner with us. We stopped at the Costco in Wilsonville to buy batteries and water. Then we continued to the Safeway below John and Patty's place. I got french bread and garlic butter (Patty's request). I got a chocolate shake next door for Vicki and a coffee a few doors down for me.
We got to John and Patty's at 11:30, just about when I wanted to.
The weather was nice today, so we spent most of the day on the deck and on the patio. John turned on the fireplace. It was nice. We had drinks and talked as usual.
Patty fixed thin steaks again, they were really good. We wen inside to eat them and then stayed inside because it was getting darker and colder. The days have really shortened up here. We talked until 8 before going home. We said our "see you in 8 months" goodbyes and invited them to Texas over the winter.
There was a whole lot of traffic on I5 on the way home. It really didn't thin out until Aurora. We got home at 9 and watched videos for a little over an hour before going to bed.
