Dear CARTA

I would be more than happy to take the bus to and from work, but your Route 31 – Folly Road bus only goes past my house once. You can take me home from work, but you can’t get me to work unless I want to walk a couple of miles to the nearest bus stop.

Please fix.

All right, I’ll make it easier for you. Go ahead and shoot. You’ll be doing me a favour. – Rick

If that plane leaves the ground and you’re not with him, you’ll regret it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life. – Rick

I’ve got a job to do too. And where I’m going, you can’t follow. What I’ve got to do you can’t be any part of. Ilsa, I’m no good at being noble, but it doesn’t take much to see that the problems of three people don’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. – Rick

Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship – Rick

Number 5 = Edouard

TS Edouard was announced last night and is spinning out in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Looks like more rain for Texas when it reaches the coast sometime tomorrow.

Another one adopted

Mel got adopted out today and left with her new people for a nice new home in Virginia. They seemed like nice folks and I think Mel’s going to get all the love and attention she needs.

Now the dogs and I will take a bit of a break before tackling another foster.

Lowcountry dog park tour: Ackerman dog run

Located in West Ashley on Sycamore Ave just off St. Andrews Blvd (Highway 61), Ackerman dog run is a smallish dog park, but with lots of trees that provide ample amounts of shade for those hot sunny days.

There are three dog-lock entrances to the park located at the corners, with a poop bag station at each entrance. A water fountain is located in the middle of the park.

The dog park isn’t very large, perhaps 250 m2 or so. There’s plenty of room for dogs to run around, but if you have the kind of dog that likes to tear around wide open spaces or go after those long throws, Ackerman may not be the dog park for you.

With an abundance of benches and shade, Ackerman dog run certainly makes for a nice spot to go hang out while the dogs run around and play.

Here is a Google map to the dog park
