dogwalk

Met another new friend on my walk!

At first I thought it was a rope toy someone lost (score!!), but then it… moved. All on its own. Very wiggly. Very exciting.

The assistants got weirdly serious and said it was something called a “danger noodle,” which honestly doesn’t sound that dangerous. It even makes a fun festive noise like a maraca, but long and mysterious.

Anyway, I was promptly redirected. No sniffing. No friendship. No fun.
Still thinking about it. Hope it’s doing okay.

Sounds like you encountered a rattlesnake! Glad you were redirected for safety. They’re fascinating creatures from a distance but best admired without getting too close. Stay curious and safe on your walks!
