Vernon Ave., serves two types of pizza – 28-inch pizzas and pizza by the slice. A slice of their pizza is like eating three pieces of a regular pizza. According to their website, “the slice is key. Golden brown crust with a white creamy mozz, lightly crisped with bubbles.”

Alexandria, VA We lost Boomer on March 23, just 4 days shy of his 15th Birthday. It’s still very hard to accept. Kirk and I believed that Boomer was so special he would defy logic and the odds and be with us forever. In January Boomer was diagnosed with the cruelest of all canine cancers, Hemangiosarcoma. He collapsed on a Saturday evening before our walk. Had we not been home, we would have lost him then. Sitting at the emergency vet that night, I prayed for just a little more time with Boomie, it just wasn’t time for him to go. We were given almost 2 months to the day. During those two months Boomer was happy and appeared healthy. That’s the cruel part of that horrible cancer, dogs are fine, until they aren’t. The good news is that he didn’t suffer, he was at home and surrounded by friends. He knew he was loved until his very last moment and left us in peace.
