The DivaMobile, Fluffy Book & Appeal to Vote

Don's brother, Paul, gifted us at Christmas with eBay certificates and as we shopped, we came across the dog bike trailer in the pic. We bought it & hitched it up to Be's bike and once Diva gets used to it, she will enjoy the ride much more.

Last Saturday was the day of the trial run and Be found that hauling around an 85 pound pooch (plus the 15 pound trailer) can give one quite a workout. Another beautiful day on the Winter Garden Bike Trail - Don's foot was still healing, so he took off for Downtown Brown's (alas, our favorite soda shop is closing tomorrow) for a rootbeer float and a few more chapters of "Marley & Me". The book was loaned to us by a neighbor who said it was required reading for dog lovers ("You love dogs .... you gotta read this!") It's a real fluffy piece, but should be finished soon in case a book report is also required. I am told get out the hanky for the end.......can't wait.......

..........and now for something completely different

If you are a regular on Pregnancy by Adoption, you'll notice that we stay away from political and religious items for the most part. Both topics can push bottons in people and there's no need to make references to them - OK - let me clarify - I have no problem talking about my faith - it's the religious stuff I avoid.

All that to say ......... the Election Primaries are upon us. Regardless of your political affiliation, get out and vote. In our county, we have the luxury of early voting daily for almost 3 weeks prior to our primary (this Tuesday). Other states have their primaries in February, so if early voting is offered to you, take it. Both of us have already voted - and it took about 5 minutes of our time. So do it folks ....... vote.
