Saturday's Bark for Life at Sunnybrook was delightful. Absolutely delighful.
I saw friends, former co-workers, and the women I have come to know as the force behind Pottstown's million-dollar miracle. Ruell Johnson, executive vice president of the American Cancer Society, visited from Atlanta, and I boasted about Sunnybrook's dance floor, springtime in Pennsylvania, and the friendly, positive atmosphere surrounding the Bark for Life.
Our town, with 500 dogs leading the way, was on its best behavior Saturday.
