“Hey, dad. Check out Lucy on the couch.”
“She looks happy.”
“Did I hear my name?”
“That’s okay, Lucy. Dad and I were commenting on how happy you looked.
“Why do I think there is some kind of catch?”
“How about we play with some toys?”
“Hey, Dad. Can you toss the pink cow?”
“Maybe Lucy wants to play.”
“How about it, Lucy. Want to play?”
“I think that would be nice after our walk.”
“Dad. You aren’t going to make us go out in that cold and rain are you?”
“You know if you don’t go out you are like a whirling dervish for the rest of the day. Besides the sun is coming out later when you get back from the beach.”
“Oh man, Lucy. I’m sorry I gave Mom such a hard time about the sweater. Now I’m freezing.”
“Yeah and because of you, mine’s still back at the house. Let’s get this over.”
“That walk was miserable, Lucy.”
“I know next time just stand still and let mom put on the sweater.”
“Wait! What is that bright orb in the sky?”
“Remember Dad said there would be sun after the walk. This must be it.”
“What do you think Little one? Maybe stay all afternoon?”
“I think I could do that, Lucy. This is the best.”

Twiggy certainly gives new meaning to the phrase “baked potato.” A little baking’s good after the damp cold that’s been hovering around the coast. Both clearly are enjoying their little fenced-in “oven.”

They’re just like children when it comes to dressing for the weather. Mine refuses booties, though he’s acclimating to the raingear. Nothing like “eau de wet dog” scent, huh?! Send us some of that sunshine, won’t you??
