Birthday in Baltimore

Today is my birthday and we are spending it in Baltimore (don’t worry we have people watching house and dog etc.). Our son, his wife and their son Jack (our first grandchild) lives in Baltimore. Jack just turned six months. That is why I have not been very active in the blogosphere lately. Below are a couple of Leonberger Happy birthday photos.

The pictures show a Leonberger puppy wearing a party hat and it says Happy Birthday.
Debbie Ireland, a Leonberger community friend send me this picture today and gave me permission to use it.
The photo shows six Leonbergers wearing party hats. They are sitting next to each other and looking into the camera.
Leonbergers are celebrating. Caspian (Obi’s nephew), Austin (Obi’s son), Delfi, Obi (now 7 and a veteran), Digory, and Rilian (Obi’s son). Photo by Jen O’Keefe and Ira Van Order, prominent members of the Leonberger Club of America who allowed me to use this photo.

Today we visited the Cherry Blossom at Fort McHenry National Monument. Fun fact: “The Star-Spangled Banner” was born as a poem written by Francis Scott Key on September 14, 1814, after witnessing the British bombardment of Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. Below are some Baltimore photos.
