Yesterday was a long day — I worked 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., with a two-hour break in the late afternoon. But the day began with horses and ended with puppies, so it’s all good.

Nelly Segal, of Maine, walks her daughter's Bernese mountain dogs Molson and Jasper up and out of the Piedmont Dog Park on Thursday, Aug. 12, 2010. Hundreds of dogs and their owners came to the park on its official reopening day.
Special thanks to Stephen, who helped me out last night after I circled around Piedmont Park and all nearby side streets, with no luck for parking, for 40 minutes.
I love this angle (nice DOF, too!)! Yay puppies!
