architectHappy birthday Clark!
Our beloved Clark turns ten on 10/27/2025. Clark was a rescue from the Animal Welfare League of Arlington (VA). AWLA is a no-kill shelter for dogs, cats, birds, and other pets, and they do a fine job with a mostly volunteer staff.
He came to us a little over eight years ago, and I cannot believe where and how fast the years have gone.
Once again, Mrs. A. has entered Clark in the annual AWLA calendar contest. All pets entered into the contest will have their picture in the calendar, but we are hoping for a more prominent position for our handsome hound. Those who are so inclined may vote for Clark at
this link. The copetition is stiff, with many beautiful animals entered.
Clark thanks you, as do I.

architectThank you ORC, most generous! Clark sends his thanks!
Clark is not (yet) in first place, where he deserves to be, but I am sure we will see a closing surge from the good folks at SF. Voting ends 10/31.
