"It just gets better and better!"
We moved back to New England around the New Year. Not the best time to leave Florida, but what can you do? Winter here being what it is, most of the neighbors in our new "Active Senior" condo complex (that's 50+ for you kids) didn't spend a lot of time out doors. I have a dog to walk so I'm out and around often. I have managed to meet a lot of the people but only briefly. I met Judy one day as she walked her dog at the same time I was out with mine. We chatted several times, and as the weather began to warm we spoke more frequently. I also noted that with out the sweaters and parkas of the winter she was a slim, attractive woman.
My wife returned to our Florida place for a week or so to get it cleaned and ready to sell. I stayed home for work.
It was late afternoon on Saturday and I was getting ready to make my dinner when the door bell rang. I saw it was Judy and opened the door to find her in a panic on the porch. "My dog ran off and I can't find her anywhere" she blurted out as soon as I had opened the door. "Please help me find her" she asked. Of course, I said as I went to get my shoes.
We wandered the grounds ( with only 35 units it isn't too big) and hadn't found her dog but then I heard mine barking up a storm back at my home. When I got back there I found her dog on the porch "talking" through the door to mine. I called Judy and she ran back to where I was, scooped up her dog and proceeded to give me a big hug.
