Great Outreach and Good Movie!

We spent most of Friday on Outreach visiting 7 dogs, so we shall see what comes of it.  It gets depressing but we know there is a light at the end of the tunnel for these fellows!

We went to see Beginners today and liked it.  I like Ewan MacGregor!!  Christopher Plummer did well, but his role was quite understated.  It is a complex story, not often told so that is why I liked it.  I did not like the pauses between comments. . . that drives me crazy. . ."Isn't a nice day, Edith" pause second one, two, three. " Well, Jerome,"staring into his eyes with a bashful smile.  "It could. . pause pause, pause, be a . . pause, pause, "good one if only". . pause, pause. . we were together."  Drives me nuts!  Just say it, Edith!Anyway, it was good and I would recommend it.  We also had lunch at Laurey's which did not disappoint either.  Never been there on a weekend.  Same fresh food as weekdays and half the crowd. 

The Big Veg Fest is tomorrow and we are ready with our carrots and beets!  HA!  We are sharing a booth with Animal Compassion Network and they have about 50 vendors. . good deal for the first annual. 

We'll wait two weeks for our next event with is the PAWpalooza with adoptions and all kinds of goodies from noon to 3 on August 20th.  WE are co-sponsoring that event.  Can't wait for that!

And of course, we go to New York on Monday morning.

Love,
