Today Griff and I, after not much thinking and debating, have adopted this rescued Shiba Inu mix. He's pretty adorable and sweet... and although he has some resemblances to our dear Simon, he so far has none of his skittish tendencies. He was a stray and is incredibly, saddly skinny. Lucy has shown him the same kidness she has showed other dogs (i.e. she mostly ignores him and occassionly gets in his business). We can't wait till y'all can meet him. It's pretty FREAKY! There are a couple other pictures of him Flickr.

Sweet Cherry Pie
We, unfortunately, missed this little diddy but I had to post the advertisement and a pic. I'm looking forward to next year though. I wonder, will I eat or be eaten? Both sound titillating.

A Fun Thing To Do In Gray Weather
Whenver it's a gray day in Columbus, Julie and I like to take a ride in the Beaver balloon. Here's a picture from one of our trips.

Coldlumbus (or the Chad and Griff anti Hotlanta Day)
We had a cold and rainy Sunday in Columbus and in typical Liv and Julie fashion we took the opportunity not to enjoy the Sabbath, but rather to attack another room in our house with fiendish fervor.
You'll have to wait for the Tour of Homes to get the full effect, but for now, check out this beautiful corner of the room!

They Don't Call it Hotlanta for Nothing!
That's right! It was 75 and beautiful in Atlanta today. Actually it was nice all weekend. Chad, Lucy, and I made the best of it.
Today we went to Piedmont Park's doggie area, which is huge. Lucy, the old girl, liked sniffing butts and pee spots, but generally preferred to hang with her daddies rather than play with the 50-60 dogs frolicking about park. Overly dependent? Maybe a little. Cute? Definitely!
Actually, I shouldn't be talking smack about Doodie. Chad and I weren't much better. We had one brief interaction the entire time, even though there were dozens of dog people surrounding us. A gay boy couple with their own anti-social dog sat about 10 feet from us and we had a brief conversation about our dogs' ages. To be honest, the first thing that went through my head when they sat down, in a bitchy tone nonetheless, was "Do you really need to sit that close when there is all that open space to park your asses?" It was my territorial growl, if you will.
Despite our family's lack of social skills, we had a great time at the park.
After the doggie park, we went to an outdoor farmer's market close to our house. It's a sprawling industrial parking lot-like area with 60-80 covered loading docks where local farmers/growers sell there produce and other goods. We bought two big bags of fruits and veggies at the different vendors, which in total was only $14. Nice.
