*Memorial Day Weekend *BASH* @ Findlay, OHIO Bark Park ~ *SUNDAY* MAY 27, 2007 ~

One day there will be technology available so that pictures and posts can be transmitted in actual time from the event. Until that day, we wait patiently until some caring soul arrives home with tales to relate.

I know you are all having a great time. Play hard, puppers. Eat some goodies for me, peoples.

already available. if you looked at my posts in last year's findlay, you'll see some "live" posts from my sidekick. I also could have had some pictures posted straight from it too but didn't had time - was having too much fun.

guys, I thought of you all today when it became 27th! hope it's not pooouring .. at least the doggies would be muchmuch cooler than last year! anyone brought the yellow pool?

I just realized it's Miss Carrie (Gabbie's mom's) birthday today! Is she partying with you all today?

[Ginger's Mom]

We went to a wonderful dog park meeting this morning with some good friends, and all I did was think about you guys in Findlay. Hope the weather held up for you and you all had a good time, and remembered to take lots of pictures. Careful driving home everyone.

Too much humpin' will make you sleepy huh Jack??

Well let me start off with a HUGE thank you to those of you that were still at the park when I left (the first time ) and you all realized that someone left their camera behind. Thank goD I'd only gotten 10 minuets from the park when I got the call to turn da bus around. (as Phred would say )

We were blessed with Wonderful weather at the park! Except for the few sprinkles that chased us back to the pavilion around 6:00 or so.

I had a blast and I wish it hadn't been so long since my last visit!

*Raises right hand*
On my honor I promise not to try a different route to get to the dog park

Although... my detour through and around, back through and around once or twice more Norwalk did let me save a pair of swans that were strolling across the road!

I didn't take all that many pictures.. but I'll post a few of my favs and the link to my album.

Pat and a stampede that heard she had treats!!


Cinder and Smoke tryin' everything to get to Phred who was cooking up at the pavilion.


Mr. Chipper the wrinkled forehead, watermelon rine eatin' cutie pie!


Chipper and Kia wonderin' when mom is coming back!

Sadie and Jack.. humpin' in the park, H-U-M-P-I-N-G... wait.. . Sadie wasn't really a willing participant was she??


Sierra and Shadow waiting patiently in the back of the pack for the Beef Jerky Mayor Karen was passing out.


The mayor trying to wash the smell of the Jerky off her hands so the dogs would leave her alone!


Kimmy... feeding Kia and Chipper butts and legs.


I had to leave Buddy at home because he doesn't know how to behave himself in a dog park. But Pat made sure I brought one of her homemade cookies home to him and this one is for you Pat. Buddy Loved them! (unlike his snobby sister )


Here's the link to the rest of the pictures:

We were not the first to leave but I guess I am the first ready to post. The sun didn't really shine but it didn't rain either. So a good day for all weatherwise. We did get a few sprinkles but not much else. As we were getting ready to leave it came down a bit harder but not much. We haven't been home even an hour.

First I will answer Kay's question. Gabby and Carrie were there for a short time but got called home to a family gathering where her brother had just showed up. She has a new boyfriend and family members wanted to meet him. He is from Florida but I guess will be moving up here soon. I didn't get any pictures of them because I was in the shelter when they came and they took off before I got my camera ready.

When we arrived Phred and his two pups were there with a picture that Tonya had drawn of Bowser on one of the picnic tables. She had sent it to him for hsi birthday but now it has even more meaning to him if that is possible. Karen and Paul were already there. Later arrivals were Staci and Keegan, Pat, JoJoe, Sherman & Star, Andy, Kimmy, a friend of Andy's, Kia and Chipper, Ashley with Shadow and Jack rode with them, Amy, Ralph, with Cincy, Sadie, and Spot.Angie and Sierra got lost but made it before the hamburgers and hotdogs were ready.

There were some new people for the area that joined us but as usual I don't remember people's names but the dogs were Lucy (pug/chihahua mix), Brutus (a rat terrier), Rosie & ? (shnauzers), Demitri (rat terrier) and Zoe, a I am not sure of mix.

On with some pictures;
