This is Mary Ann

if anything happens to her human,

Here, she’s got her eyes locked on a treat I’m bribing her with.

She’s got no interest in picture taking.

…or so she’d have you believe.

She might “pretend” not to like having her picture taken.

But there’s plenty of evidence to suggest

that she secretly knows just how cute she really is.

 

Though I suspect…

While visiting The United States National Arboretum, love snapped a pic of me trying to be creative.

These huge columns, originally from the East Portico of the U.S. Capitol, sit atop a hill within the National Arboretum. The reflecting pool was not in service on the day we went, but it was breathtaking nonetheless.
