Yay for holidays! No I didn't get to sleep in much because of our terror of a kitty but I did get to enjoy the time off. Saturday we had plans to take Charlie to a self serve dog wash but instead we went over to Steve and Drea's house with him. Stever and Drea have a 5 month old pug named Ralph who is mega high strung so we thought it would be nice to take them both to the dog park in Wilsonville. Steve told us it was like a 20 min walk to the park so we figurred why not walk.... psssh! it was way longer then 20 min. plus it was through a wooded area, not great for walking in with flip flops. Anyways we finally get there and there is only like 4 other dogs. One whos owners wouldnt let it off the leash and 3 other who belonged to this guy and his daughter. Ok so Im used to the upland dog park, lots of dogs, plenty of watering buckets, running water, etc. This places was rural, no running water, you have to bring your own or fill up 2 large sparkletts bottles that are left at the park but to do that you have to drive fill them up and then drive em back. Luckily the guy with the 3 dogs just filled them both. Poor Charlie didnt seem to enjoy his time too much, the guys 2 german shepards and dane mix just wanted to dominate him the whole time. Eventually they left and Char got to enjoy his time. Just a bit after the guy, his daughter and 3 dogs left 2 girls come walking up with their 2 dogs. 1 of the girls look familiar but I dont think anything of it, I mean Im in Oregon now. Then it hits me, she looks like me ex's ex.... I know she moved to Portland about a year before him and I got together but I didnt ever think i would run into her, plus we were in Wilsonville. She eventually takes off her sunglasses and sure enough it's definately her. I didnt say anything, but I am 100% it was her. After being at the dog park for about an hour we walk to the Wiliamett river and relax on the docks. Later that night after we got back we went out to this mexican place by their house and had dinner... one thing Oregon doesnt have, super good mexican food. This place out of all the places we have tried though was the best, but we sure do miss El Perrico in Upland/Rancho.
Sunday we went to the market again, I found a girl who makes skirts and want to go back next weekend and get one. Super cute! After enjoying the afternoon at the Sat/Sun market we took charlie to a new dog park in Happy Valley, Or., just 15-20 min south of here. It was much more accessible then the Wilsonville park, and more people there as well.
Today vince and I just went and saw Halloween. It was pretty good. Ive still got to iron all my uniforms for the week but I am just avoiding having to do it, ugh. here are some pictures of Charlie and I by a stream running through the Happy VAlley park and some of Minnie pretending she is spider cat!
