Blitzen paws the ground like a raging bull and this morning he spewed wet dirt all over my beautiful new white shoes -- white.

Baptist Center. Within the first half hour we had eleven families for the food pantry. Wow. This is the last week of the month. Altogether we fed 19 families. Some are families and some are single men.
Sue Cora who runs the pantry on Tuesday brings me goodies every week. Today she brot me oatmeal cookies with rasins and choc chips.

Came home and took a nap. Did some sewing. Temp is only 88 but humidity is high.

Dogs were restless and we went to dog park at six. Fortunately we went early bc there is a juvenile softball tournament going on. And parking grew more and more scarce.

Lots of big dogs were willing to race. Heat not too intense.

Lady Chica's tale
Lots of dogs were willing to race and buddy arrived after a while. Nothing out of the ordinary. Life is so routine these days.

Blitzen's Tale
Those big ol bruisers were willing to run tonight. We had a lot of exercise. Mom got upset when we were leaving bc I kept humping this little black dog. [At least the owners just pulled Blitz off. They did not get out of control.]

BOOK REVIEW
Aaron Elkins, *Old Bones*
Starring Gideon Oliver. I keep thinking there was a tv program years ago. This book was published in 1987. It took too long to find the corpse in the basement but after that the going was great. Set in an estate in France. One victim died when he drowned in the tide in front of Mont St. Michel.
