Lots of wieners!

Per Janis' request, here are live-action shots of my doggy door that I had installed for Maggie. She has mastered it and enjoys the freedom. The window is shut down on top of the doggy door and then the remainder of the width (to the left of the doggy door) is a piece of plexiglass cut to the perfect size.



Iris - here is a SECOND location of the Wienerschnitzel franchise that I found in Arlington! I had to take pictures this time. Can't wait to eat spaetzel with you and laugh uncontrollably about the Marienplatz!! (However, notice in the 3rd picture that they are promoting an "italian" sausage in a restaurant that screams German!)

Random Texas Observation - When several freeways all come together at a big complicated mess of overpasses and cloverleaves, that is called a "Mix-Master". I love it!

Today I watched an old Oprah episode that was on my DVR - about puppy mills. Have any of you seen this show?? I was bawling my eyes out when they showed the Fort Worth Animal Shelter and they filmed them picking out which dogs would get euthanized in the morning (about 20-40 per day get euthanized). They put a big red "E" on their cage card and then they filmed the process of killing the animal and showed them stop breathing peacefully. Oh my gosh - I was crying so hard. It was so sad.

the Doggie Door is so cool!! I like that when you go away for a long time you can take it out and lock the house down. It is not like anyone will fit through the Maggie size door except a gnome perhaps!
