We used to take our dog Buckley to the playground of the elementary
school next door to our house, until it closed all its gates to the
public. Then we took him to the little league field 2 blocks down, along
with a lot of other dog owners and it became the unofficial dog
park of Winters. Then they remodeled the dog park and now it has
a new sign:

I guess I shouldn’t complain because within a 10 minute walk from our
house is this:

But I know that someday this field will be developed into more homes,
and right now all the dog owners like me are just trespassing on who
knows whose land, and it would be great if there was a legitimate
off-leash place for dogs to exercise in Winters. Ahem.
