This is an older picture of Koan and Lucy in their old backyard down in Houston. Lucy is getting on the older side for a dane, she is 6 but you would never know it by the way she runs around our new backyard.

Here is a picture of the Cherry Blossoms in Washington D.C. We moved here a few months ago and have finally gotten settled in. Lucy and Kona love it here. We have a dog park within walking distance from us. It is pretty cool because a river runs right by the dog park and you can take your dogs down there. Kona, our lab, loves going so she can go for a swim. Lucy loves to go because she finds all sorts of unsuspecting people to pet her. She literally pinned a dude down last time we went and would not let him stop petting her. She is such a nut.
We went to the Taste of Arlington and thoguht it would be a good idea to walk around with the dogs. It was not because there were so many people. So we sat on the sidelines with the dogs and Lucy and Kona made all sorts of new friends. My wife Michelle would go out and get the food and beer from the big block party that was the Taste of Arlington and the girls and I sat waiting for her to come back. Man I should have charged admission, we had so many people come by and want to pet Lucy and Kona. Mostly Lucy, which I think has given poor little Kona a complex. She is like that little kid, going me too, me too. (Kona gets so much attention at home) Having Lucy there was good for publicity for the breed though. Everyone loved her and she got almost as much attention as she can handle, which is saying a lot.
