Day Two Hundred&TwentySeven

I can't stop thinking about this place.
One, because I got an awesome shot of SirTorey.
And B, because while he was sitting there he kept saying that it smelled like there was a dog around...  To our surprise, through the glass door were 4 BEAUTIFUL huskies.  It made me sad to see them all crammed into such a small room and it looked like they all could have used a sangwich or two...  I want to rescue them and put them in my pocket.
