It was interesting trying to find a mutt puppy in Seattle.  Where I grew up, in the country, there were mutt puppies all over the place.  Mostly this was because many of the dogs were not neutered or spayed in the country.  Now in the city, however, it seems that things are much different and nearly everyone spays or neuters their dogs.  So there are a lot fewer unplanned puppies in the city.  Hence, in order to get a mutt puppy, we had to travel all the way to Yakima!  But Tess was certainly worth it.  She is definitely a mutt, probably lab mixed with rottweiler mixed with who knows what.   Here she enjoys the good life at Villa Sophia:<br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" width=\"525\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"image1327\" height=\"320\" alt=\"Tess Sleeps\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dabacon.org\/pontiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/P1010016.JPG?fit=525%2C320&#038;ssl=1\" \/><br \/>\nAnd of course, I haven&#8217;t told you about last Friday.  Last Friday, I was taken out to dinner and proposed to!  And, because she had all eady said yes to my proposal, you can guess that my answer was also yes.  At the dinner I received an incredibly cool engagement watch.  One cool feature of the watch is that it has no batteries and never has to be wound.  It has been about five years since I wore a watch.  That&#8217;s a long time to go without time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Four Fidays ago, I got engaged.
