So Very Civilized

Well, well, well… you just NEVER KNOW what you’re going to see when you’re out on a walkie… Still hot. But what is this? OH HELL YEAH, the troughs that hold water for the horses that cart around tourists also have a handy-dandy fountain for dogs.  Absolutely brilliant.  I’m liking this city more and more.…

Art is Subjective

Must investigate.  Magnolia Tribute Garden – lovely. Lovelier.  Just needed a little Airedale-ing up. Apparently George Washington was an aficionado of the magnolia. …

Greeting My Fans

I love to meet my fans – there are so many really lovely people out there who just need to get in a little Bogart worship when they’re in my town – and I UNDERSTAND. This is Susan – we tried to meet up at the Just Dogs Gourmet today but they were closed!  While…

New Times in Old City

Ice, Ice, Baby… (dum dum dum dum da da dum dum) I was first attracted to the leaking bags because, well, anything leaking on the street gets my attention.  But.. just bags of ice.  A bunch of humans seemed to be planning some sort of party to which I apparently wasn’t invited.  Silly fools, don’t…
