Minnesota Prairie Roots

I’M ALWAYS INTRIGUED by dogs hanging their heads out vehicle windows.

Are they smelling something?

Do they delight in the wind blowing through their fur?

Or are they simply enjoying the warmth of the day, the carefree joy akin to riding with the convertible top down?

Whatever the reason, I smile whenever I spot a dog with its head hanging out the window, nose pointed, eyeing me, me him/her…
