Boston Common

It was 70 degrees and sunny yesterday so we took our Boston Terrier, Elli, to the dog park. As we parked and began walking towards the park we started to see several other Boston’s. Typically we see a couple every time we go to the park, but this time there were lots of them. We entered the gates to find 30-40 Boston Terriers running amuck. Apparently all of the Boston owners meet up on the first Sunday of the month at 2:00 pm, I just happened to have my camera with me.

This little girl got hit by a car a couple of months ago, so she wasn’t feeling well yet.

I would have loved to get a photo of all of them together, but that would have been nearly impossible considering the chaos that was taking place. So, I just tried to focus on some of the ones with the most personality.   

I have never seen so many variations in one breed. Some are 25 + lbs and some are like mine. (I don’t think she weighs 12 lbs with a mouth full of food)  Some are cross-eyed, some are wall-eyed and others….  Well, as my friend would say, “one eye watching the poll and the other is dig’n for bait.  Some are black some are brindle and I even saw one that was tan. In all, they are a great breed and just aim to please their owners.

Malibu Grand Prix

These were taken two weeks ago at the Go-Kart track. We went for my brother-in-law’s birthday. It was extremely fun. Kian got to play some games, although I think he really wanted to go on the track.

This was taken just before Ashley’s first lap around the track. These cars go fairly fast, so you don’t race other cars like most go-kart tracks. Instead, you race by time. In other words, after you have completed your lap you can check the official clock to see what your time was. She looks like she was ready to lay down some rubber, but in actuality she drove miss daisy around the track on the first attempt. She blamed it on driving with heels on, but I see her speed on the highway everyday in heels.
