Carrie, thanks for your well-wishes.  If their past success is an indication, this event should rock!

What a great cause!  And, it is a terrific family outing.  Unless, the kids want to adopt some dog or cat....well, kids, let's think about it.  But, all in all, it is defintely something I would attend. 

Great localism post.  Thanks.

"Enjoy a family oriented Saturday" is what caught my eye and of course the great garage sale for such a good cause. Definitely a good community localism blog by our friend Mary Kay Hopkins.

Thanks so much Carl and Ceil.  I was quite impressed with last year's effort and suspect this year will be even better.  As always, thanks for your support.

I love to hear about what realtors are doing to take care of our furry friends.  There are many great local groups here in Lancaster PA doing the same thing.  I also love the names of some of the organizations.  Good luck with your big day this year!
