Too Much

RAW, or Ride Across Wisconsin is coming up, and if you want the discounted registration you best sign up by June 30th; today! This is one budding event I can inform you about but there are so many events it s almost too much to comprehend. Makes going to the fireworks for our blessed fourth a no brainer, …but which fireworks? There are so many local. I don’t go for all that celebrating not on the day but the day before crap.

Minooka Park in Waukesha is a good focal point if you have a growing interest in mountain biking for you or yours. As of now Metro Mountain Biker’s Wednesday Night Races are at Minooka; check the site to confirm. Then, July 10, is the Collectivo Coffee Bean Classic, a WORS premier event.

Summerfest is here of course. I am not the biggest fan of Summerfest. Too many drunks and not enough quiet places that are not under a blazing sun. The old main stage is always nice, you can sit at some picnic benches away from the speakers and take it easy and listen for a while. Now, if I had free tickets…

But it is most productive to write about what I am actually doing rather than what I have planned. What I am actually doing also comes with pictures, if I can remember to bring my camera along. The garden is one of my major endeavors at this time in my life. Hopefully I will have some ride pictures soon, …if I can remember to bring my camera along..

Don’t keep feeding your dog the same food. That is a myth; it is not healthy. Also dogs need moisture in their food; dry food will upset their stomachs so add water.

Ike our dog is consuming our resources and my time like never before. He has been struck with seizures and food appears to be a part of the problem, as changing his diet has helped. He gets away with a lot more now that he is ill. When he jumps into the raised garden beds, destroying the vegetables, I just say, “Yes Ike, I built that for you.” Which is what he wants to hear.

If you do not visit a holistic vet when you pet is suffering from some ailment, you are only getting at best half the options available to heal your dog. Our regular vet, Advance Animal Hospital, will recommend vets with a holistic approach, though I am not completely happy with Advanced Animal Hospital. Vets push a lot of vaccines that may not be necessary.

As of today, three days after I started writing this post Ike is having only a few mild seizures a day. If he keeps improving we will not need to put him on medication.

Happy Fourth of July to all.

The $137 question: What were my three most favorite WORS races? Keeping the same question. Check out the Charity Jackpot Page link in the sidebar to possibly triple the amount.
