It was a wonderful weekend, starting with the Guide Dog Foundation volunteer party. It was really fun and I enjoyed getting an opportunity to visit with all the employees, puppy walkers, friends, and pups. I was sad and moved saying goodbye to everybody since I won't be allowed to volunteer with the Guide Dog Foundation any longer. My new job is with a "competing" organization, so my parents will continue raising for GDF but I have backed off from my responsibilities with them. It was lovely hearing how appreciative everybody was of my time and efforts and getting to say goodbye to the wonderful people I have worked with.
At volunteer day, I met Olivia P who is an area coordinator in Georgia for the GDF. She was visiting to receive an award and didn't know anybody in NY, so I brought her home to hang out with me and my friends coming out from NYC for a beach weekend. Olivia P was awesome and it was a pleasure having her and talking puppies with her (and I think she had fun, too). Nupur and Olivia, friends from Columbia, came out and we had a delicious BBQ, margaritas, daiquiris, ice cream, and girl talk. It was an awesome evening.

This morning, Nups and Oli and I spent the morning at the beach. We got a tasty lunch, shopped, and got more ice cream. It was such a fun weekend!
