thursdays with jackie

The Deschutes was green and the ducks were playing in this swirl of foam near Farewell Bend Park. Nina stayed awake for most of our walk...it was 37 degrees and we could smell the snow coming yesterday, 10/9.
Jack tearing it up next to a birch that was starting to turn. The fall colors in Bend are fantastic, but alas my camera won't capture what my eyes see...

It has been officially one year since our dear Jackson got cancer and had to have his leg amputated. We are ecstatic to celebrate this milestone with him, considering the forecast was very grim. Jack is spry as ever and loving his daily jaunts around the neighborhood, to First Street Rapids and the River Trail. The past two Thursdays, Jack, Neens and I have headed out on "longer" treks...our "nature walks" where we've strolled for hours just taking in Autumn in Bend. It is a beautiful sight!
