On Saturday, Tracey and I dropped Toby off at the national mall to spend the afternoon wandering around museums and monuments, and then we headed to North Beach on Chesapeake Bay, where we spent an afternoon on teh beach and wandering through a festival. All three of us had a great day, topped of by an evening at a fabulous sushi restaurant.
The highlight of the weekend, though, must have been finally meeting Tracey's super cool dog, Dulce. Dulce is all puppy, and an absolute riot. We actually managed to get her standing still long to get a few cute photos, which is very rare!
Tobias Photography was on holiday, but we did take a few snapshots. Here are my favorites from the weekend:
Here we are a the White House. Unfortunately, the Obamas were on vacation, so we didn't have any sightings. However, Toby enjoyed trying to find all the secret service agents in the trees.
Toby took many great self-portraits at the monuments.
Here's Dante, the cat that Tracey and I rescued from the streets our senior year at Vandy. We weren't supposed to have pets in the dorms, but Dante did a fair job of keeping quiet. He was only discovered twice, once by a maintenance man and once by a woman from housekeeping - but fortunately they both pretended not to notice. :)
Kirby generally hides on the stairs on the far side of a baby gate so that Dulce can't chase him. Having said that, we did find the two of them comfortably sharing the kitchen on our last day in DC, so I think Kirby is just trying to get sympathy.
Dulce is 100% puppy, and 100% lap dog. She is such a hoot - just look at that face!
Like all pets and children, she really loved Toby.
