This weekend was gorgeous with temperatures getting into the high 70s so we put the dogs in the car and headed to the National Arboretum. We have the perfect dogs for taking to social events where we can walk around with them as everyone loves seeing a bulldog walking along. The only problem is that they are exhausted after walking three blocks. That and Oscar lunges at other dogs. Anyway, we can never figure out how people are walking their bulldogs on the mall as there really are not that many residential areas close enough to the mall for a bulldog to walk to without being exhausted. So are these people driving there and being dropped off, or are they paying for parking? I mean I want to know these things.
That is all neither here nor there. So we went to the National Arboretum (The Mall was parking lot because of this whole Cherry Blossom madness). It was really beautiful out there. Much better place to see the cherry blossoms plus a whole assortment of other flowering trees. We packed a picnic with some new salads whose recipes I will have to post. Dogs loved being out and about, but they were exhausted by the time we got back to the car and made sure everyone within hearing distance knew it from their wheezing. Good Times.
