East Side Adventures

East Side Esplanade here we come! I like to avoid all of the bike riders by walking off of the main walkway when I can – plus it smells far more interesting down here. Hard to see in this photo, but you will notice that it is not completely grey today – we are experiencing…

Raining on the Roses

When ya gotta go, you gotta go… Ah, the many days of rain have put a damper on everything around here – even I am starting to grow weary of getting soaked every time I have to pee – and the Rose Festival is no exception. The Fun Zone is not only not fun… It’s…

Feeling Clean + Green

The nice folks at Clean + Green sent us a can of their carpet and upholstery cleaner, made especially for pet stains.  As you can imagine, we have our share of those.  Oddly, we received the can a few weeks back and there has been no VOMIT, POOP, or PEE in the meantime (well, not…

Pigeons Part Deux

Something odd happened this afternoon.  Even the randomly-placed sticks and tree detrius arranged with no particular care around generally-boring pipes leading to holes in the ground noticed it. I was on my midday walkie in the North Park Blocks, like always. Things are green and lovely today – it’s our first real day of spring……

Tabby vs Terrier

I am not at all ashamed to say that I am not brave enough to take on this tabby.  You should have seen the ferocity in his eyes, he only caught my attention because he started spitting at me as I walked past.  I stopped to see what was spitting at me, and it was…
