“It doesn’t matter if the water is cold or warm if you’re going to have to wade through it anyway.” – Teilhard de Chardin

Travels With Maggie
It’s cold and windy today here in Harker Heights, Texas, where Maggie and I are parked in my oldest son’s driveway.
And it’s snowing in Chicago, my youngest son said in an e-mail he sent me today.
Wouldn’t it be nice, I thought, to be bird watching on Merritt Island in Florida. When I checked out the weather there, I discovered it was a balmy 78 degrees.

My thoughts went back a couple of years to the winter day I actually did spend watching birds on the island, which is located near Cape Canaveral.
I can dream can’t I?
But there’s no getting around bundling up and taking my daily walks with Maggie. Even if she doesn’t care for the idea any more than I do.
