Richard and I went to lunch at the Williamsburg Winery today with a neighbor and two of her friends. And one of them was the real deal actual “Mr. Monopoly”. He is in charge of “games” in his state. Can you believe it. To be in charge of games and to get paid for it. …
The Wiz is back at this fantasy again. This time I’m supposed to be the lion and this ridiculous outfit is supposed to give me courage. Do I look like I have courage? He is just trying to pay me back for the Indiana Jones crack. But he really brought that on himself. I mean …
Whoever is in charge of advanced interrogation techniques ought to put the subject in a car with Richard for six hours while he is practicing the harmonica. It is not simply the mind numbing repetition, but it is also the reality of knowing that he is only on lesson 20 of 125 lessons. I use …
I spent so much time going on about how great the Biltmore is, I forgot how special things are in the Brandywine Valley. The Whiz has an annual pass to Longwood Gardens just 10 minutes from Wilmington. We go there every week. As wonderful as the Biltmore is in every way, Longwood Gardens out-does …
This Wizard of Oz motif is clearly out of hand. Last night I dreamt I was being walked by the tin man. He set off all of the metal detectors in the courthouse. They were not happy. And the Wiz was no help at all. Who knows what I’ll dream about tonight. I hope …
On our way back to Williamsburg yesterday, Richard stop at one of our friendly WaWa’s. Before he left the car, a street person tapped on the window and asked if he was Sam Elliot. I don’t even know who Sam Elliot is, but it certainly left an impression. Now he can’t stop looking at …
Ever since we returned to Delaware, we have gone back to training. I find it very interesting that the Wiz, as old as he is, feels that he still needs to be trained. Some humans do lifelong training and others have personal trainers. The Wiz does have a personal trainer, but not for what …
Have you checked this out? I have my own university pass. And I am “STAFF”. Getting this card was the proudest day in this canine’s life. For generations, we have been subjected to drinking out of bowls, having to raise our paws for treats, and the most humiliating -having to be followed around with …
Can you imagine anything worse than being trapped in an Airstream, in a thunder and lightning storm with the rain beating like pellets falling from the sky? Can you think of anything that would keep you up at night more than the memory of a rabid fox attack in your own neighborhood? Well, you haven’t …
Well, I am back. I know it has been a while, but a lot has happened. Jethro sold the Airstream. That’s right – gone. I can’t say it is a terrible thing. I have had a love-hate relationship with it for the entire year. And the rain- oh, the rain. All Jethro had to do …
