Would you like to walk a dog?

This afternoon, I was out. for my pokemon walk/dedicated 10, which to be told I should stretch out to dedicated longer because it is literally exactly 10 minutes down and back. 

I was crossing the street and there was a man ahead of me with a little black poodley looking pupper. He said hello, I said hello back. He stopped walking, and turned towards me.

"Would you like to walk a dog?" 

"Well, I have a dog, and I could be walking him," I replied. He laughed.

"I was going to say if you give me ten dollars, you could take him for a walk. But it sounds like you are all set." I patted his dog, and we laughed.

"That sounds like a pretty darn good deal, I gotta say. Hard to resist that offer," I said as we walked along toward my house. "Maybe next time I see you I'll take you up on that."

We got to my gate and I said, "You've probably been barked at by my dog. He's kind of a jerk," he laughed. 

"Oh we get barked at by all the dogs. It's quite alright. I'll be sure to say hi to him if he comes out to bark at us next time." 

He said his name was Brian, and his dog is Charlie. Nice to meet some new folks I've not met before. Charlie seemed to like me a lot. 

Spring is pretty much on fire here right now. The temperature is perfect. I have spent a lot of time outside over the past couple days. I drank a bunch of beer outside last night before it got too dark, Doug was watching a TV show I had lost interest in, so I sat out playing with my phone until it died in the cool of the evening, pre-humidity time, no bugs, just, perfect. 

Here's a picture of the bushes on the side of our house. We let the ivy grow, we did this at the last house too. It's just such a nice look. I should take a picture of the inside of our shower, with the ivy against the glass looking so pretty.
