the park!

so i've certainly mentioned the park near our apartment. it's about an 11 minute walk (i timed it the other day...) and it's amazing. the dog park part of it is pretty big and, like most of the dog parks i've seen here, it's not fenced — which is totally weird to me. it's basically just a dog "space" that the dogs run around in and best as i can tell, if the dogs go outside of it, no one goes psycho. 

can you tell how green everything is? i know i'm probably biased, but it's so, so, so, so green. i try to take nickel on this walk everyday, but it doesn't always work out. i'm trying to catch up on work and still getting the house in order right now, and sometimes i just don't have time, but i really like going and the weather is perfect right now.

these are much more blurry because nickel was being extra-hyper, but the ones at the top were taken about a week and a half ago, and these were taken yesterday. can you tell the difference? do you see fall? now there's leaves on the ground!!!

the weather is gorgeous right now — like in the 60s in the morning and then warms up to the 80s or so with a breeze by the afternoon. except for yesterday. yesterday was almost 90 degrees. hot, hot. 

i promise pictures of the apartment are coming soon, for those of you who grab your monitor daily and shake it in frustration that you haven't seen how we've decorated. i'm just a snob and want everything to be "done" before we put it on the internet. ...and we're almost there. we have to be. 

have a great weekend!!
