The highlight for me was that at the same park he had lacrosse, there was a rally for dog rescues from all over the state of Michigan. This meant dog heaven! The weather was perfect, so it was pretty amazing going stand to stand seeing what types of breeds needed rescue, and just chilling in the amazing weather on a Sunday afternoon. The bulldog's name was Diesel and I fell in love with him but I had to take the obligatory Yorkie picture for Tinny eventhough if it came down to either a Bulldog or a Yorkie as our dog, there's no way the Yorkie wins.
We went to Saugatuck for dinner. Saugatuck is a pretty dope little coastal cape on Lake Michigan where a lot of people with a lot of money spend their summers. It has a Dawson's Creek vibe to it, but on a day like today there aren't many other places you'd want to spend your day. It beats the hell out of where I was last Sunday.
As the end of the day approached, the sun started to set as we left Little Russ in Saugatuck. We had about an hour car ride down the shore to get home but I wanted to check out the sunset where I used to go a ton when I spent summers in Michigan. Another little Cape type town here, for people with a little less cash, is South Haven. South Haven may be poorer, but they have a kick-ass pier with a lighthouse at the end of it which makes it one of the best suset viewing locations I have ever been to in my life. It's the perfect Ralph photo-op location too naturally.
I feel like I am getting back to myself now. There's a little more peace and serenity in my daily behavior. I believe in meditation, and I have been practicing that a ton, "silence on the outside equals stillness on the inside." I am figuring out ways to put the past away, not worry about the future, and find myself again. It's a daily fight, and it's really only a fight with myself versus my subconscious. I won today's round.
