We went to the last class of puppy school today that we joined mid-way through the class. We will be starting our regular puppy class on December 5th but got a head start by attending the last 3 classes of the previous session. Today was a fun day of obstacles the puppies had to go through. Here they are trying to get Lilly to walk up on the board following a small trail of treats. She actually did really great with all the obstacles. I guess she's too young to be afraid of these things!
DAY 324 - November 20, 2009
Since we've moved in there has been an empty lot between us and the neighbors. Quite frankly, I've liked having a lot next to us with the exception of how ugly it can look. It was a breeze putting in the pool and fence, the boys can run and play there, we used that area to put excess dirt, etc we accumulated when finishing the landscaping of the back yard, when we backwash the pool it's an easy place to let the water drain to, and I've enjoyed not having construction going on right next to us. The builder that all the homes in our neighborhood built has long since left and the remaining 5 or so lots have been sold to a realtor. With the economy the way it is right now they have remained empty. It will be interesting to have new neighbors and see the kind of house they build. There are restrictions to anyone that builds though and they must include the requirements that we have in the covenant. Things like a brick wrap on this lot because it faces a major road and no vinyl siding. At the same time, I'm going to enjoy not having the hassle of construction going on right next to us and having the lot available for things we currently use it for.
