Etsy was too rambunctious for my taste today, so in the afternoon, I did a training session with her going through all she should already know with the exception of fetch. It worked quite well in that she was quite tired and behaved much better the rest of the day. I learned that I may have to work on training daily with her just to keep her from getting too crazy as well as keep her well trained...and yes, one can have a well trained crazy dog.
J and I spent a good dinner socializing with A, her counterpart in Belgium. Great conversation, and she has been helping doing physical fitness training with J the past several days. This means a lot because she has found few co-workers with which she feels comfortable enough doing this. We also think we may spend Thanksgiving with them, but we'll figure out those details more in the future. Considering they are more isolated than we are, it's a bird's-of-a-feather kind of a thing.
Speaking of parties, J and I have been invited to a costume party by a friend of I and S. We're still trying to decide what costume we will wear, but it should be fun nonetheless.
Today was more quality time spent with others than sightseeing, and I'm okay with that. I took a video of falling leaves today, but I only had my phone on me at the time, so the video did not turn out at all as I had intended. With this same phone, I was able to take a nice picture of Etsy during our training today. I like the contrast of her fur against the leaves.
Oh, by the way, C and R! With the goats today, I saw several chickens with feathers on their legs down to their ankles. What kind of chickens are those?
Tomorrow, we check out of the hotel. I get to pack everything and load the car while J finishes up with her classes. After that, we head out to Rothenburg Ob der Tauber to take a look at the impressive city in the daylight before we head home. Then its, "Hello weekend!" I'm totally going to experience a 9 day weekend! Score!
