Out and About

Out and about on a sunny weekend.

~Crossing the Potomac River into Maryland~

In the town where I live, even on a Saturday, construction workers are hard at work on the new "Town Square."  It was envisioned more than decade ago, but it ran into trouble during the recession. The Town Square will feature a distinctive Glockenspiel, or clock tower, that town leaders hope will serve as a branding feature, in tribute to the town's German heritage.  Just what businesses are being given leases have not yet been announced.  Town officials and the developer are holding those cards close to their vests.

Even with construction work picking up, there's no question, Spring is near -- It's chick-season at the local "Tractor Supply."

While there, a friend of mine asked me to look for "cow-magnets."  Silly me, I thought she was asking me to look for refrigerator magnets. Who knew that there was such a thing that would hold a heat cover on a car during field training.... and other (udder?) things?  Have you ever heard of them?  (**They feed them to cows and it picks up the metal that the cow may have swallowed while grazing.)**

Back at home, the dogs enjoyed being outside.  We took several walks....

Having gone from only walking a few steps and needing so much help, I am so happy with how well Jake is walking these days! (video below)

There's was time for frisbee...

And of course there's always time for ball..

Time for rolling... 

Sitting...

and just watching...

Not a bad weekend.  I hope yours was good too!
