so I ask you again, please stop it.

I'm sure you're blessed to be born here, after all this country is the greatest country that civilized man has ever created. You alluded to the fact that people in Europe are not overweight but Americans are. I don't disagree with you. What I don't like is the tone so generally used by many Americans in that we are somehow inferior or ignorant or stupid in many ways to the lifestyles lead by Europeans perceived by many Americans as superior to ours. I say we have nothing we can learn from the Europeans. If we have a lesson to learn we'll learn it on our own when we want and at the pace we want. I am not disparaging you specifically. Simply disenchanted with the general feeling of many that we are not different from the rest of the world, just an extension of the global oneness that many want to head into. I say, we among all others on this planet are exceptional and as such have saved others from global dominated tyranny and remain free from such tyranny because we are different and we think for ourselves.

During my run today, I took a picture of the new dog park, small dog section. There were quite a few benches already installed. They were not there earlier this week.

Anyway four of them, closest to the entrance had the “name” plates installed. The gate was locked so I didn’t try to get closeup photos. This photo, looking from the gate end shows those four benches and how they are located in the small dog section. The benches on the far end did not have name plates on them.

Hope this helps you.

Since I am the secretary for the RDOG3 group, I will speak for all of the board members and the RDOG3 members with a huge Thank You. We all put our time and effort into this dog park. The main person to thank is Diane Ferguson. Without her dream, determination and devotion we would not have Atlas Dog Park. John Rohan needs to be thanked also. John took his time to meet with us on many occasions to get the dog park established. We are very happy and proud of Atlas Dog Park. Read the Rules and obtain them. Our dogs will be happy and our dog park will remain beautiful. Look for the Grand Opening of Atlas Dog Park soon.

Nous ne pouvons pas oublier combien nous sommes redevables à ce patrimoine. Je ne comprends pas ce négativisme du tout.
