Peace&Love and Jack (super Border Collie) rush into Lola's study, where she's busy writing, and give her big hugs and slurpy doggie kisses.
"Lola! I just had to stop in to say Hello! I'm going to get together this evening with little k, who is visiting in the Seattle area, and it reminds me so much of the time you and I got together in Seattle. So, I've been thinking about you, and the fun we had at Pike Place Market. I met little k, when I was in Boston/Cambridge two years ago, and I'm really looking forward to seeing her again."
Peace&Love skips happily down the stairs, trying not to trip over Jack, and gives hugs to everyone.
"Hey! I've missed you-all. little k has inspired me to come back to A2K, and connect with all my friends here. Of course, Lola's Salon was the first place that came to my mind!"
PaL is thinking to herself, "Ah, it's good to be here, in New York City, at Lola's."
Jack is wagging his tail, "Woof." (translation: "I hope the Scooby Snacks are stilll in the kitchen cupboard.")
