I went to Earth Day!

So my mom has been away from the computer fora few days and a lot has happened – I’ve got three different posts waiting in the wings for you! But first – I went to Earth Day at Mount Trashmore yesterday. It was nice to get out of the the house on a beautiful day but mom made me walk ALOT and I tired by the time we got to Granmama’s that afternoon. But I had fun – here are some pictures I took (I forgot to take some selfies and ones of Bella; oh well, there’s always our next adventure! Really, I can’t be expected remember everything – mom has to do some of the work!) Enjoy the photos. Barkingly Yours, LadyBird ❤

Mount Trashmore is the perfect place to hold an Earth Day – it’s made of trash!!

In front of the mountain the kids from the Governor’s School of the Arts were painting a dumpster.

A view of the food trucks – which we didn’t visit (bummer!)

A sweet little dachshund training to be a therapy dog we met along the way.

A walking oyster!!!

He was advocating keeping the bay clean for the oysters!

Virginia Aquarium was there with some touchable crustaceans!

I know, it looks like I took a picture of a man’s shirt – but I was trying for the owl behind him. He is from a group that rescues wild animals. The owl in the back can no longer fly so he is an animal ambassador now.

No, not another shirt – but a red tailed hawk who has arthritis and cannot fly. He’s an animal ambassador, too. Did you know that it against the law to bother a raptor (hawk, eagle, etc) – even collect it’s feathers? 

Mom took this one on the way to G’s.

The weather was so nice when we got to G’s we sat outside for a while.

I’m trying to talk G into some fried chicken for supper.

Success! Here’s mom and me waiting in the car (see me in the rear view?) for G to get back with the fried chicken! There she is walking to the car! Yum!!

This is the group with the owl and hawk. They do really good work! Click on the image for a link.
