Saturday, Pizza and out with Jana....

Last Thursday night I exchanged puppys with another raiser family, they took Dublin and I took Jana. Jana is a black Lab female, she is a couple months older than Dunblin, who will be 9 mos. on the 11th! Can you believe it. We started out at Starbucks, Hubbys favorite place, LOL. Here is Jana at Starbucks. Its a little blurry, but she gave me such a cute look when I called her name, I have to share. Hubby usually get a Grande peppermint mocha, and I get a Tall soy chai tea, I have found the say agrees with my stomach better. Yumm Yum!!


Then we went to a neighboring town named Battle Ground, and went to the farm store Wilco where I used to work before my surgery. Shopped there, got a few things, including a new gargage can, and light bulbs, Wilco also is a True Value hardware. After we left there we went to a place called Rockys Pizza, for lunch. Rockys cooks thier pizzas with the cornmeal brick oven crust, very yummy!!!! Here is Jana waiting patiently under the table.

Rockys also has a really eclectic decore, here are some shots of this cool log building and decorations.


Some toy horses on the wall.

This photo is from the 40's, of Battle Ground Lake, a very popular fishing spot and it has hiking and horse riding trails around it. No longer can you drive right up to the shore, but a short walk from the parking lot and you come to this gorgeous dark green lake that is a couple of acres in size, the state stocks it with trout.

This building is a huge wooden log structure, the staircase leads up to more seating, on the other side behind me taking this picture is another staircase and meeting rooms, they also have a wonderful salad and pizza bar, a lot of video games and great atmosphere! You can see the huge roof beams in this photo. Battle Ground is about 19 miles from where we live, I worked up there for a year before I got sick. It is one of the fastest growing areas in the county we live in, lots of small and larger farms, which unfortunatly are getting gobbled up by housing developements.

This is the front order desk, they actually have pagers they give you that go off with a recording when your pizza is done.
We had a good day and Jana was a good pup while we were out! We stopped at Safeway for a few groceries too, on the way home, she was just a perfect girl all day! We have Dublin back now, traded back on Saturday afternoon.
