My little red tether is my anchor in running with my friends. A beautiful guide dog has been my tether/anchor in mobility and independence for 17 years: 1. Pantera 2. Cricket, and now my beautiful 3. Georgina (Georgie). A life of family and friends is my joy and anchor in life.

In our free time ...

In our free time in Atlanta, we enjoyed walking to Olympic Park many times. It was a nice stroll from our hotel.  We also enjoyed a tour of CNN.
We enjoyed a basketball game - Atlanta vs. New York.  Great seats for Cricket.
A favorite was a day spent in Helen.  Such a fun little town.  Plus on the way back ... outlets - yes, visited my friend Ann Taylor and our other favorite Under Armour!  Special treat to be able to visit with a puppy raiser in Ann Taylor.  So cool and thank you so very much!
Can you believe this dog relieving area at the Atlanta airport.  We were so glad Cricket had a good run as we had quite the adventures getting home - an unexpected plane change and delay. 
We love to travel and love to return to Home Sweet Home.

Don't you love the airports that actually have relieving areas for the service dogs? I think all major airports should have them by law.
Glad you are home safe and sound and that you enjoyed your trip. :)

I totally agree with your last sentence--it's fun to travel, then it's so great to get back home. Beautiful flowers in the first photo!

Cricket, look at you in Phillips Arena and strutting your awesomeness in Helen! I'm so glad you all enjoyed the day. How wonderful to stop by the outlets and spend time with good ole' Ann Taylor! Success in Atlanta!
