Today is Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr’s birthday.
I’m sure you’re familiar with his famous, “I HAVE A DREAM” speech…(as I type the words I can hear his impassioned voice saying,

I read this months ago and kept a copy. I wish I could give credit to whoever wrote it. It is short, but certainly could give us all something to think about.

Max– a golden retriever
and Chumley– a black Chow Chow.
I loved them both very much. And I’d say they both pretty much lived up to what most people expect from their breed.
