we found this summer along the trails.

Thinking of my fellow canines surviving the disasters
Our hearts and minds are with those impacted by the recent, destructive storms in Texas, Florida, and surrounding areas. We wish them a quick recovery and rebuild.
As recovery efforts continue in Texas in the wake of Hurricane Harvey—and as people begin to assess the impact of Hurricane Irma—it has been heartening to hear the outpouring of support and desire to help those in need. Please don't forget to the animals who are impacted by the devastation.
These are just some examples of national and local groups the charity watchdogs have listed. In addition, the charity information website, GuideStar, has provided a list of its own. If you want to know specifically what any of these groups is doing to help, visit their websites directly.

Consumer Reports
recently shared the best ways to help storm victims on www.consumerreports.org. The BBB Wise Giving Alliance and two other
watchdogs, Charity Navigator
and CharityWatch,
have released lists of more than a dozen highly rated groups in a position to
help. Below are six national and local groups that are listed by the charity
watchdogs. Where possible, we tried to include examples of charities that are
listed by at least two of the three watchdogs. Each of the groups say they are
helping victims of Harvey, Irma, or both hurricanes.

Here I go...bragging again....
Here is the reason why Mama made me walk so much.
Last night she and Dad had a delicious dinner at Aunt Joan's house. The menu was loaded with calories--fried chicken, potato skins, cannoli cake, which sounds like a feast to me. Oh yeah, broccoli was included too; can't forget the healthy stuff. Mama usually never eats like this anymore but she enjoyed herself and then complained that she ate it all. Dad has this reminder that he gives Mama once in a while--it is called his 80/20 rule--once in a while it is okay to indulge. I agree with Dad--I would love to indulge 80% of the time! Oh no, I think he means 20% of the time is acceptable to go off track.
Anyway, the important question is: Do you think I was offered any of the yummy fried chicken or potato filling with cheese and bacon--nope, not one morsel went in my mouth! Yet, I had to walk extra this morning to burn off some of Mama's extra 20% of calories. Doesn't sound fair to me.
I don't plan on breaking anymore of my records so Mama better not have any plans on over indulging again.
