With friends like these who needs friends?

Someone was supposed to meet me in the park for a 1 on 1 Frisbee tossing session. This particular acquaintance never showed up, leaving me alone with my dog for an hour and a half. Getting stood up has never been so nice.

This is what was observed upwards of our location:
This was observed downwards of us:
It is said among locals that the squirrels around this part of the park grow fangs, which allow them to feast on chipmunks, which is why chipmunks are never seen in these parts of the park. Good thing I brought Abbey along to keep watch for pesky vampire squirrels... She kept a pair of eyes and a strong nose out in all directions, allowing me to relax.

After a few minutes on watch she started to get comfortable too. It's become obvious to me that all animals, along with humans, enjoy sunny days a lot more than shitty rainy days.
My special lady friend showed up and became concerned when she saw Abbey shivering in anticipation of killing a vampire squirrel.
