These were taken April 8th. Murph received lots of time outdoors with his Mommy.



We’ll go outside again!“
We walked the length of the back yard. With his harness in my hand, we walk down the steps of the deck (Murph slides). Then, I follow him.
When he pauses a few minutes, I sit with him. As soon as I do, he’s on the move. So I get up to be led by him. Repeat about 10 times and my neighbors from a distance must surely think I’m nuts because they can’t see Lil’ Murph on the ground – just a confused woman holding a string and speaking to the Earth.
Murph seems to know where our yard ends. He stops and finally stays put at the end. He loves to stare across the field there.
Apparently, a couple of hours outside did not satisfy. As you can see, I tried to make him happy by placing him in the sunlight shining into the house, but adventure was calling his name. The wind cries “Murphy”.
Here is how the yard trip happens.:







(The photo doesn’t capture the vastness of the field. We left when the predatory birds came to play on the wind’s currents.)
