Stormy Morning

We are supposed to be on the road right now, but it's very stormy here. If we left now, we would be driving right into the storms. Daddy decided we should let them pass even if we loose time on our camping trip. There is a tornado warning right now in the area that we are camping out, so we don't want to mess with this storm. The weather guy said that the wind gusts are 70 mph. Yep, we will let this pass. After the storms pass, we should have great weather the rest of the weekend.

We had storms last night and Scout and I were so scared. We hate storms!

Mama just realized that we do not have two weekends before our next camping trip. We only have one week off. That's what she calls it... off time from camping. LOL

Talk to you from the campground!

Another Camping Trip


We are busy getting ready for our next trip. We head out tomorrow for Springfield, MO. We are staying in a private campground. We normally stay in state parks, but KOA is having a stay a night get one free this weekend. The campground has an off leash play area for dogs. Mama said we will have to see if it is okay for us. We don't want to be in there with ankle bitters. The campground is close to Bass Pro Shop, so after Scout and I get tired from visiting a civil war battlefield, Mama and Daddy will go shopping. It should be a fun weekend, but a short one. We normally go for four days, but this weekend is only three days. After this trip, we will be home for two weekends and then we go away for Memorial weekend and then the next week we head to Kansas to meet my "real" Daddy and other greyhounds. This camping stuff is tiring!

Coupon for FREE KFC Grilled Chicken

If you have been wanting to try the new KFC grilled chicken, you can try it for free with this coupon. You must print it out today, May 6th. This was on the Oprah Winfrey Show yesterday.

Mama had a friend send it to her and then Grandma also sent it to her. She decided to pass it on to all of you. I love chicken, so I hope Mama saves me some.

New Stuffing For Beds

Yesterday, Mama put new stuffing in our beds. She would like to buy us new beds, but said in these tough economic times we need to make do with what we have. Mama is normally pretty frugal, but when it comes to us, she likes to spoil us.

Scout cried when Mama took her bed and started putting stuffing it in. I didn't see the big deal until Mama took my bed. It's like an invasion of our privacy or something.

Scout didn't like her bed at first because it was so fluffed up. I thought it was great and jumped right on it. Last night, Scout seemed very happy with her fluffy bed. What do you think?



Mama said she needs to wash our beds, but she didn't want to freak us out too much in one day.

Oh, the vet said that Mama can give us both another dose of our heart worm preventive. She said there is no danger in overdosing.

The happy to not be overdosing greyhound

Daddy's Home!

Daddy came home earlier than we expected last night. Scoutie walked into the bedroom and there he was. She came in the living room with him smiling as big as she could. I guess she thought she found him or something. Today, she wanted Daddy to walk her instead of Mama.

Daddy fixed our refrigerator. He's the man! He had to put a new part on it.

We are playing a game with Mama. She gave us our heart worm medicine on yesterday. She thought she saw both of us chew it up, but one of us spit it out on the carpet. She found the pill today. She thinks that it was Scout who didn't take it, but she can't be sure. Scout is usually really good about taking pills. I normally am more difficult, but she she is pretty sure that she saw me chew it up, but she also thought Scout chewed up hers. She said she will call the vet on Monday and find out if she can give us both another pill or what he recommends. She said she will make sure this does not happen again. I'm not sure what she plans to do, but I'll keep you posted.

Home Again - Part 3

 Well, we just realized that we didn't finish telling you about the rest of our trip home.  I don't know if we even remember the res...
