A Memorable Meeting-Camera Critters


On a previous post I included a photo and explanation of a Monday morning activity when a friend and I pick up bread and pastries from Turtle Bakery in Minneapolis that are then delivered to St. Mark's Episcopal Cathedral by my friend  to add to the church's free Monday Night Supper for the homeless, heavily attended by young adults. On a recent morning we noticed a beautiful dog outside, patiently waiting for Glenn, who as a friendly dog-lover often takes Dear Abby, his neighbor's dog, with him when he goes to the restaurant where the dog is spoiled with treats by the staff.

Of course we went outside to visit with both of them so I could take some photos.  Shortly after this snap was taken my friend tripped on the pavement and fell flat on her face.  Glenn and I took her to a near-by clinic where she was treated and other than a few embarrassing and painful moments, she is well on her way to recovery.  I told her to remember that "no good deed goes unpunished!"

    Your friend is a good sport for letting you post her picture with the wounds that look so very painful. My husband fell and broke a rib a few days ago. Must be the season. .

  15. That dog is absolutely beautiful. It is lucky to have a neighbor willing to spoil her.

    And, ouch! Your friend looks like she encountered a meat grinder. How brave of her to let you take her photo and show it to the world.
