The heat is bringing me down.\u00a0 Misery has officially set in.\u00a0 It was nearly tolerable over the weekend though, at least until yesterday.\u00a0 Friday Johan joined me down at the Brooksider to kick off the weekend in traditional fashion.\u00a0 It’s tradition at our house anyway.\u00a0 We hung out there for a short while, and then Donette’s family joined us down at Jalapenos for a tasty dinner.<\/p>\n
Saturday I started the morning with my weekly dog-training class.\u00a0 Young Teagan started off strong, she did a fine job of showing off her skills we practiced all last week.\u00a0 After that we moved onto the new curriculum for the week, which included “loose leash walking.”\u00a0 (Or “heel” or whatever you want to call it.)\u00a0 This exercise she does not necessarily excel in.\u00a0 Oh well, that’s the reason for the class I guess.\u00a0 She does barely OK, unless there is any type of motion within a 100 yard radius, and then forget about it.\u00a0 Definitely a work in progress.\u00a0 After class, Johan joined me for an educational trip down to the cigar shop in Westport, and then we all headed down to the Rock The Crossroads<\/a> event for some evening entertainment.\u00a0 That was a good time.\u00a0 Johan even participated in the run with Donette and her friends;\u00a0 I elected to stay behind and watch all their stuff.\u00a0 Since they didn’t actually have any stuff, it made my job even easier.\u00a0 After the race we stuck around for the concert.\u00a0 The music was rather abysmal, or at least the sound system was, but it was a nice night out so I enjoyed it all the same.<\/p>\n Sunday morning, Donette and her Mom took Johan to Branson for a few days.\u00a0 Shopping, shows, fun stuff like that.\u00a0 Me, I stayed behind to mow the lawn and assorted other miserable tasks.\u00a0 I did actually get the lawn mowed too, which was a good week overdue.\u00a0 I spent the rest of the day working on my weed-eater, which hasn’t run for several weeks now.\u00a0 When all is said and done I imagine I will just throw the thing in the trash in a frustration-fueled rage, the same fate my last few have met, but at least I can say I tried fixing the dumb thing.\u00a0 Any small engine mechanics out there???<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The heat is bringing me down.\u00a0 Misery has officially set in.\u00a0 It was nearly tolerable over the weekend though, at least until yesterday.\u00a0 Friday Johan joined me down at the Brooksider to kick off the weekend in traditional fashion.\u00a0 It’s tradition at our house anyway.\u00a0 We hung out there for a short while, and then […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1112","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-current-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1112","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1112"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1112\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1112"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1112"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1112"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
