I hope its OK to take my dogs to the outdoor dates. I take them hiking by the lake frequently. It is the one thing that has kept me sane throughout my life. They're sort of like 'seeing eye dogs" for my soul and are so much a part of me.Maybe those walks in the woods with my dogs aren't dates but i know its been a good thing.I've done this since I was a very small child. I love this Twilight Zone episode where the man and his dog are hunting and get drowned together. He gets to the "pearly gates" and the man says, come right on into heaven but the dog can't come in. The guy keeps walking and says 'I don't want to go if old Duke can't come". Soon he comes to a man who says he is the keeper of heavens gate and again invites him in. he says I ain't coming in if Duke can't come. The other man down that way said he couldn't come in". Oh, no said the man, that wasn't heaven, that was a bad place and that wasn't Gods angel who spoke to you. Duke is welcomed here." So in he walks.

Think it would be good idea to share some dates to give others ideas?
