Sidewalk, chalk, and a dog

Not the actual artist
London, ON
September 2018

The world was particularly nasty this week - and promises to continue to be nasty well into the weekend, and likely beyond. So I'm offering up a random moment in our dog's life as an antidote.

Calli came across some sidewalk chalk art on a walk earlier this week, and I thought it was worth remembering. Because sidewalk chalk is awesome, and the kids who put their smartphones down and head outside to share their temporary art with the 'hood should be knighted. Or at least thanked for the smiles.

I'm not so naive as to believe that one photo - this one or any other - will fix what ails the world. But if this spontaneous moment in the life of a dog brings one smile to one person, then perhaps the ball will begin to roll in the right direction. Can't hurt, right?
