Great Places To Visit.

Couldn't resist posting this in even though the photographer should be shot for such bad work. Never mind. You try keeping up with 2 little dogs playing "tag" with each other.  The Westie is my friends dog and she is 10 years old (although she forgets to act her age, just knocks up quicker), and the black poodle is my Miss Lily who is approaching 2 years old.
