Had to wonder today… do you keep your child as safe as my dog? No real excitement. Not much else to occupy my mind. The calm before the storm tomorrow. Minimal beach ice, some remnants on the fog house and catwalk.
But enough ice still around to climb on. A mother and child, wandering near the edge. At some points the kid was 100 feet ahead, wandering near the edge. Unstable ice, that would be giving way soon. Here I was in my car, watching. Our dog Shilo, harnessed and buckled into the car, allowed to stick her head out the window for awhile. While the kid wanders on the ice. I wouldn’t be out there with my dog. But there she is with her child. Maybe I am too old, too cautious.
But Shilo isn’t going to fall in.
