Once I'd had my morning coffee (and it got light out) I went out back to deal with Creepy (and top off the pool before this morning's irrigation.) That's when I rescued this little guy from the pool.  Since he wasn't swimming I'd assumed he was dead - but happily not!

After catching his breath he did run around for a bit, tickling my hand and arm, 

until eventually deciding to jump ship here under a bush.

Today marks four whole weeks <g> since I started walking, and I celebrated the milestone by not taking my cane into the gym.  Also have noticed I can walk a little faster.  It's wonderful to see continuing progress!

Irrigation went well (always a relief) and the front yard got a thorough watering.
