strangers with weebay

triple play of strangers today. these are all from trucko de mayo and let me tell you, strangers were all up in weebay's business at this event. probably about 15 people stopped to pet/play with/pick up my sweet little peanut for the hour and half we were there. it was like heaven for weebay. i only got 3 of the strangers that were loving on weebay but they all happened within 10 minutes. while we were waiting for our food. 

first up, this guy told his lady friend, "honey, LOOK at this dog. we need him." i totally agree, sir, totally agree. 


next up, the guy taking orders for the food truck actually came out to play with weebay. weebay loved his apron and the guy loved weebay. he called his wife over from the beer stand to check out this precious dog. 

lastly, a lovely lady and her boyfriend freaked out about weebay. the guy was awesome- big old body builder type guy with muscles, shaved head and sunglasses. tough guy. he actually told his girlfriend that they were getting a dog just like weebay. look at weebay's face in this- it shows exactly how he feels about attention. 

trucko de mayo

saturday we went to trucko de mayo. lots of food trucks, beer and music. about the music, the "school of rock" kids were there and lp and i have randomly seen them a few times out and about. those kids have some guts!!! they're like a bunch of 12 year olds who get up and bust out some led zeppellin and rolling stones. i mean, i would never have done that when i was their age!!! so that was kind of cool. 

anyway, lots of food trucks. now, i have a mad obsession with the food trucks in dc. first, there are TONS of them! like, so many that lp will often come home and tell me about how he ate at a food truck he'd never heard of before. korean tacos, grilled cheese, lasagna, lobster rolls, burgers, salads, falafels- there are tons to choose from. second, i never get to eat them. downside of my job- no breaks to go grab lunch. so i never get a food truck. this only fuels my obsession!!! last, i really like the idea of food trucks. i think they're great for a place like dc, where there are a lot of people wandering around, many of them tourists wanting a quick bite to eat. 

so we went out to rfk stadium (which i had never really been to) for this food truck bonanza. it was cool. the weather was kind of nasty though, and lp and i were both feeling a little "bleh" so we didn't stay too long. but we took the dog and had a good time!!!





so many to choose from!!!


surprisingly, the beer lines were short!!

weebay had the best time watching people and getting petted

we ate grilled cheese. because i'm a five-year-old.
