These Boots are Made for Walking - NOT

A great big truck with a big rolling thing on the back stopped at our house yesterday.  Dada had dug up a long strip of grass from the front yard to the back lanai and also a big spot out front.  He put boards around these dug out spots and we thought he was making a little swimming pool and river for us to play in.  I was so excited until this truck shows up and a couple of workers with wheelbarrows.



We watched from the front window and saw this gray stuff coming out of a shoot from the big truck into the wheelbarrows and these 2 guys were just running with the filled wheelbarrows.  It looked like a race so we wanted to see who would win.  Dada stood in the gray stuff  making it nice and smooth while the two guys ran around with the wheelbarrows full of the gray stuff.  The guy in the truck just sat there and pushed a button.  Mama was supervising the whole thing.  Why she let dada wear brand new WHITE boots in the gray stuff I'll never know. They were pretty much done with everything in about an hour.  We never did figure out who won and what the prize was.

So we woke up this morning and all the gray stuff was really hard and we could even walk on it.  Dada keeps talking about the sidewalk and patio, both places I was hoping to dive into.  But that dream is dead.  Maybe I'll go roll in some dirt, at least I can get a bath in the laundry tub.  Happy tails, DeDe
