There's Somethen' About A Dog. 9/4/13

It was a gorgeous day. You made it safely to school and stayed after to finish your make up test. When you got home it was just too beautiful outside to start your homework right away.  So Nurse Gayle and I gathered you, your gear, and Sundance up in the van and headed down Logan's Mill Rd to the creek crossing.  A handsome herd of Angus grazed nearby in the tall grass and the sunlight filtered through the trees onto the gravel road and the banks of Barton's Creek. 

Sundance is a wonderful therapist, attentive, encouraging and enthusiastic.  He had you throwing the ball across the creek in no time, stretching your shoulders and strengthening your balance.   With his eager Labrador smile and wagging tail, he got you to walk half way up the hill on the gravel by his side.  We drank in the crisp clean air and gave thanks for magical healing moments in the Virginia countryside, good dogs, and your daily progress. 

With love, joy, and gratitude,

Mum
