Local Spot- A Day in the Park

What a wonderful, beautiful day it was in Philadelphia today. We slept in and got around at our usual snail's pace and then the Mistress and Boy-Toy decided to take Buster Bolfig Borghese in to town to see other dogs and we could get some boy watching in. We decided to go to the Washington Square Park in the southeast part of the city. It is quite a beautiful section too see and not far from Independence Hall. Washington Square Park was designated in 1682 and is one of five original parks or "squares" laid out in a city plan by Ben Franklin himself and William Penn, and is located in the Washington Square West and Society Hill neighborhoods. Fellow Philadelphians were out in full force and Buster got to see all kinds of other playmates, big and small. Not to mention the Mistress and Boy-Toy met their muscle boy, I mean, gentlemen owners! Here is a row of carriages awaiting some business across from Independence Hall.



Here is the Independence Hall.

And the park itself.








There was also many street mistrals walking about playing many different forms of music that just made the afternoon all the better.This was a group of young women play their instruments of choice. And Buster Bolfig seemed to enjoy taking a squat and a listen.





After departing the park we headed back up to center city to dine at our favorite South American eatery Mixto. We got the last outdoor table and enjoyed a delish dinner and some lovely summer beverages. And of course some prime real estate to guy watch, I mean, people watch. Why the Mistress keeps going back to men I have no idea. We are all about equal opportunity here people. And the weird thing was the Mistress and Boy-Toy had their picture taken like four times while dinning. And then when we though it safe, after dinner we departed Mixto and around the corner to bump into more paparazzi, I am so not kidding, and they wanted us to pose for pictures for the city paper of residents milling about the neighborhood. THANK-GOD the Mistress wore the swank summer up-do bouffant wig! Tootles!
