Temperature in the mid-70's - brilliant blue cloudless sky - helicopter circling foothills - day workers slumped hopefully on park benches - mothers and grandparents pushing strollers - (lots of infant twins in this town) - and dogs large and small trotting down the boulevard.
Along comes a plump woman, short in stature, zealous in wardrobe - snug cap, winter coat, dress striped and polkadotted, white furry boots, rouged cheeks, penciled eyebrows, with a comment: "I need a dog to walk in this town."
I'm wearing shorts, the doodles are thirsty - no time to stop to see Neil the pig.
