Back from New York, Now Off to DC

We had a wonderful time in New York . . perhaps our best ever!  I will write more later about that but have no time now.  My cousin's aunt Mary died Thursday so we are going to her funeral Monday, leaving tomorrow morning at 10 a.m.  We'll be back Tuesday afternoon -- driving half way back after the funeral.  Mary was 101 years old and lived every second of her life in a happy state of mind.  Ever Irish, she loved to dance the Irish jig and although never touching alcohol she was generally the life of the party, even a small one!  I am sure we will all miss her.


I took lots of pictures of New York which I will mount soon.  It was a whirlwind with the wonderfully amicable Palmers who walked everywhere with us.   We have little stubs for feet now! 

Hope everyone can come out for our Pawpalooza on Saturday at Pet Harmony at noon to 4p.m. to meet Susie, the dog responsible for Susie's law, the law which makes animal cruelty a federal (class H) offense in NC.   I cannot wait to meet her (burned off ears and everything).  Another law is being proposed which needs your support ( if you live in NC ) called Chamberlain's (he is another dog) law which tightens the cruelty laws even further.  Please come out and see these dogs and have some ice cream ( proceeds to benefit CFA), and also meet authors of many dog books as well.  Have a great time!  Come see us.

Thanks and more blogging later!
