Dog Friendly Condos Alexandria VA

 Most of you know that the kids and I moved into an apartment complex a few months ago.  So far, we are loving it.  I no longer have a yard I have to worry about mowing, which is nice, even though mowing the grass used to be one of my favorite things to do.  I hear that condomimium living is just as nice. 

Most of you also know that I now drive a delivery van every day.  I love my job.  I love that I spend most of my day alone, with just my radio.  It's wonderful not having to deal with cranky co-workers.  In fact, one of my customers asked me the other day what I liked best about my job, and I told her that exact thing.  I also love that I do something different every day.  I never know where my boss will send me, and I get to see a lot of different things.

The other day I was driving down the interstate, and I saw a billboard for a hotel, and their biggest selling point was that they were pet friendly.  They offered a dog park right in their hotel, which is awesome if you happen to be traveling with your pet.  I know there are some people who think of their dogs as their children, so having a park for them to play in is probably a great reason to stay at this particular hotel.  I was amused when I read online that there are even Alexandria Virginia condos that offer a dog park to their residents.  They call it the Bark Park, which I think is an awesome name.   One of the things my kids loved best about where we live is the little park they can play in, so I can only imagine how excited dog lovers would be to live somewhere that has a place for their dogs to play, especially since condos don't have yards of their own.

I wonder what other peculiar things I will see while I am driving this week?
