We thought we knew how to get to the dog park, but we were wrong. We left around 1:00 PM and arrived (finally) at the dog park after 3:00 PM. It was an adventure for sure, a typical Simpson misadventure I should say! Ginger and Mya got to run around, play in a puddle, and roll in crushed up earth worms, so they were happy and sleepy. It stormed most of the night last night, which was great. We needed rain, and I love thunder storms so I was happy. Mya hasn't experienced many thunderstorms in her short life, so she had to sleep in her own little pink bed because of all the growling. Brooke came down on Saturday and we went downtown with her for shopping and dinner. It was nice to have her at our house. We had sweet corn for the first time last night. We went to a Farmer's Market on Saturday morning, and were very happy with the sweet corn we picked out. John and a group of volunteers went to a park in Denver to clean up on Saturday. The volunteers are all part of several programs for ex-offenders. John works with other organizations to organize days like this. 33 ex-offenders came to volunteer on Saturday, and John even made it on the 9 o'clock news on Saturday night! They didn't show his face, but it was obvious he was working hard carrying a trash bag! I was so happy that the event was such a success and so many people came. John loves his job, and I'm so happy for him.
