Albert is 3 years old and is a son from my niece Sybil, my sister Valeria\u2019s daughter. The other one, Leon (on my right \u2013 your left) in the photo is only 7 months old and absolutely full of life. He is a son from my nephew Eiger. Oh we did have a lovely time at the Lickey Hills. We walked just over 3.2 miles and I haven\u2019t barked so much in ages. Of course I also had to get Mum to take the obligatory stumpie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2256-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"26959\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2256-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26959\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2262-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"26964\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2262-edited-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26964\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The most exciting thing is that Mum has promised to sort out some more group walks for us. She says we can go to some different places to make it easier for other dogs to join us. I can\u2019t wait to find out who I can meet up with next time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Walks with Dad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is so lovely having walks with Dad. Obviously there was the Lickey Hills yesterday. The day before that I took him to Oakley Woods. It was really interesting noticing the different trees that were growing. Oakley has a good mix of pine and deciduous but the Lickey hills has far fewer pines. They are both rather wonderful in their own ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2249-scaled-e1667065788409.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"26963\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2249-scaled-e1667065788409.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26963\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2251-scaled-e1667065685854.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"26961\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2251-scaled-e1667065685854.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26961\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It means our total walking for the month is now up to just over 56 miles and we\u2019ve still got two days to go. Although I think today is a rest day after all the fun of yesterday. When I say \u2018rest\u2019 that\u2019s more in the gardening sense of the word. Mum and Dad gardened when we came back yesterday until they ran out of light. Ari is hoping they will help him again today too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Apple harvest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dad is working on harvesting the apples, but I don\u2019t think we need to worry too much. There are far more to harvest than he will have time to sort out on the whole of this holiday. I think there will still be plenty left for me and Ari for a while yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2247-scaled-e1667065734672.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2247-scaled-e1667065734672-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26962\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Shadow enjoying time with Dad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Wilma has been for a walk with two of her great-nephews.
