Aug. 14-15th: Cortes

14th: Woke up this morning & got the kayaks down so Rod could wash them. Just as he finished, it started to pour & rained most of the day so no kayaking. I did go for a walk with Nancy (our Shelter Bay neighbor) & her 2 dogs late in the day - a standard poodle & a doberman. We saw a mother & baby deer along the way! By the time the dogs picked up the scent, they were long gone.

15th: It poured most of last night. Woke up to mixed clouds & blue sky, 70' at 9:00am, so still warm. Went for a kayak ride with Nancy - I think I have a Hobie convert! In the afternoon we went for a walk up to the top of the outstation's property - a gorgeous view from the top, but very steep going up. The dogs & a friend of Nancy's went too. The doberman, Freida, literally pulled me up the climb. She goes fast & it did make it easier but...out of breath! I took Cricket, the poodle, down & she was more gentle. Constantly stopping to make sure I was there & I think ok. Got up to 76' today so hoping for the best for the next few days as our friends fly in tomorrow aftenoon.
