[nagdu] Krokus's adventure

Sometimes, when people's bushes are taking over, I go out with my pruners
and whack 'em back.  Or one could complain to the town.
There's a house nearby that lets all kinds of vines and brambles hang over
the sidewalk, some of them thorny.  I end up whacking them every summer.

Hey Tracy! Glad you had a good time.  It's great sometimes to just let our
guides just be dogs for a little while.  Interesting what a change in scene
will do for our dogs.  We have pretty narrow sidewalks in my neighborhood,
and people just let their bloody bushes grow out over them.  So Nova tends
to walk very slowly and cautiously.  Of course, some of that is being new.  
But she's a very confident, lovely dog.  When we went to Seattle to watch my
granddaughter in Special Olympics, I really saw what a gem she really is.
And when we're downtown she does well, too.  
I'm not saying that she doesn't do well in my neighborhood, I'm just saying
it's a little more difficult, and I don't think she likes it as well.  Well,
can't blame her for that.  We're having some trouble with street crossings
in this one area.  And it's a quiet area with not much traffic to help me
with getting lined up.  But I like to walk there sometimes, because it is
quiet with not much traffic.  Sigh.  People have recommended I carry a 
machete.  Lol.    Debby and Nova
