Flowers and Fast Furries

Cue the spring music...

We woke up early on a Saturday morning to catch the first Egg Hunt of the day at Descanso Gardens. Okay, I'm a bit too old for egg hunting, but little SAM isn't!


Descanso is so pretty this time of the year. Plus they have a restaurant, gift shops and events throughout the year. If I had a garden, these would be the top contenders to join my foliage collection:



Another memorable moment today was taking Barklee to his very first Dog Park adventure. Well, it's possible his last owners took him to one, but considering they left him to fend for himself at a dirty animal shelter, I think not. Boy, did Barklee stretch his legs there. As all the other dogs casually pranced around, Barklee was doing laps around them and shocking other pet owners by pretending they were his owners too. That was one sad part... it was as if Barklee didn't even know me there! I'd call for him and whistle and pat my knees... and he'd run right past me as if i were invisible. (sigh) I guess I should be glad we could get him back on a leash to go home!
