I have met so many neighbors through Layla my lab. We all gather in the field across the street. However, we haven't gathered in a about a month because Layla has a partially torn CCl and has been ordered not to play with others. I t is hell. Poor baby doesn't know why she can't play. Poor me because I have to control her on the leash when other dogs are in view. <BR/>Anyways, don't mean to be downer. I just miss the good times...Lynnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08847101514633311422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-1161468520008570672006-10-21T15:08:00.000-07:002006-10-21T15:08:00.000-07:00That is so true about knowing the neighbors through walking the dog. Having an alley is nice too, ours is a congregating place.Zoehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13243666555055966517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-1161463939070168932006-10-21T13:52:00.000-07:002006-10-21T13:52:00.000-07:00Despite the fact that I live in Bumfuck, partly because I don't like neighbors, I do understand the importance of community.<BR/><BR/>This was a beautiful post.Sydhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08467557560114129373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-1161460338232996662006-10-21T12:52:00.000-07:002006-10-21T12:52:00.000-07:00Excellent post! <BR/><BR/>I love to walk around my neighborhood (and other PDX neighborhoods). Not so many people do that anymore. <BR/><BR/>I love to stop and talk to people who are out working in their yards or walking their dogs. And I know all the neighborhood cats, so it's worth it just for that. My favorite is this roly-poly orange tomcat named Amber. He is unbelieveably friendly and sweet.<BR/><BR/>So, yeah, keep making the rounds. Mr. Rogers would approve.Rozannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04536916678337782615noreply@blogger.com
