Alo spent some time with us yesterday. We sat in the yard a while playing and watching airplanes fly over, then we ventured over into Hogan’s yard. We first gave him a good aerial view of the 4-legged desert wonder.

Then he got to sit and interact with him at ground level. No fear …

Afterwards, we played in the yoga studio for a while where Bruce and I tricked him into walking 3 steps and a few minutes later he walked 4 steps. Walking toward me both times, he had a look on his face that said “Yo, Dude, check me out. I’m walking.” Then when he finally figured out he was being tricked he played the “cling-on” game and he wouldn’t let go of his death grip. Watch out everybody! Alo’s well on his way to be a 2-footed traveller! Watch for videos here.

Our neighbors’ realtor held an open house yesterday, and sure enough they set up a cozy little wine & view corner, utilizing the plywood piece of junk overlooking our deck and yard. I like the way they used a scarf to conceal the unfinished seam in the two pieces of plywood.

Watch out for those splinters!
