The Charlottesville, VA downtown mall was invaded by Leos and the folks they own on May 2! Braving the imminent downpours, we walked the downtown mall and had a wonderful dinner right before the heavens opened up. Besieged by curious folks, our Leos and their owners tag-teamed on answering the regular questions--"what kind of dogs are these?" --"how much do they eat"--"can we pet them?" Thanks to our Social Director, Laura Morgan for planning this fun event. We all had a great time!

There was lots of fun on November 1, 2008 when the Austins hosted their 3rd Annual Leo Get-Together at their home in Dyke, Virginia. The weather was perfect and the Blue Ridge Mountains fall foliage was at its peak! After a short MALC meeting, we enjoyed lots of food and drink, and even managed a Leo walk around the mountain. Below are some pictures of the day:
