Still inspired by Kevin’s one-sentence slice!
Reasons
Do our dogs get all tail-waggy and lose their minds when we start loading the camper because they enjoy a crackling fire pit, or is their joy – like mine of a picnic basket – not the grapes and cheese but the thrill of spending cherished time together, of turning our eyes toward each other instead of our screens?
Common Threads 
You've reminded me on a dog I once had. I remember sitting in the back of my dad's pickup truck, watching the dog sniff the wind as we traveled down the road. I think I'll write a Slice about that some time. Thanks for jogging my memory!

The last line got me – turning off those screens and being with each other, especially in front of a fire pit is the best! No zooming there!

Such good questions! I believe that is true. It's the spending cherished time together whatever we are doing is so valued, for the pups too. “instead of our screens” is a key, isn't it?
