Black Dog Sunday

It is the summer of endless wildflowers. It's been so special to be able to go rejoice in the summer beauty with our Black Dog.

R loves going to the meadow so much that he sings (or hums) as he runs along side my bike. I've even wondered if the sound helps him navigate around obstacles. Perhaps he hears it echoing off of trees and boulders that are alongside the trails, and thus is a little like a bat using sonar to weave his way through the forest. In any case, I love R's joyful soundtrack to life.
Happy Black Dog Sunday!

    The thought the same as Cecilia that he was carrying a pink flower. He may well have found a way to use sound to navigate. I've had blind students who've done the same.
