I recently spent most of the afternoon at our lovely Prince William Forest Park. I saw quite a few other people enjoying it in their own way as well.

There were runners, bikers and trail hikers. I chose to take my cameras, tripod and rubber boots with me. I wanted to take in all the sights of the park before the flora and fauna fall into winters slumber.

Dogs Rule Manassas Park Pool

[imagebrowser id=144 template=”custom”]

MANASSAS PARK , Va. — With summer vacation now a memory, the dogs had their day at a swimming pool in Manassas Park.

The 4th Annual Doggie Paddle was held at Signal Bay Waterpark over the weekend. Pooches, and their owners, lined up for a day of fun at the pool — which is normally filled with people during summer months.

But, since the summer swimming season ended on Labor Day weekend, and before the water is drained and the pool cleaned and winterized, dogs from all over the area were invited to dive in and cool off.

Pueraria Montana, also known as Kudzu, is an extremely fast growing vine that can grow as much as 60 feet in one season.

I stopped to take a picture of a huge growth of these vines along Austin Run Boulevard in Stafford and a man stopped and asked me, "Why take pictures of that stuff, it grows all over here?"

True, it's quite common, but what might not be so commonly known is, according to Web Md, it has many uses.

My beloved dog Sophi couldn’t be a better pet, except when I open the kitchen windows.

Then and only then does she start barking uncontrollably. I have not figured out why she does this, but I have found a cure. If I am cooking something that usually causes my stove to smoke and I need to air out the kitchen, (it happens more often than I care to say) Sophi alerts the whole neighborhood.

The other morning, the weather was so nice I thought I’d try to let some fresh cool air in, so I opened the kitchen windows. Sure enough, she started howling and barking loud enough to wake the neighbors.
