OUR 9-20-09 FUNDRAISER/RAFFLE/YARD SALE IS OVER AND I WANT TO THANK 
EVERYONE ON THE DROOL WHO HELPED US.  THE YARD SALE AND RAFFLE TICKETS

COMMUNITY SERVICE DONATION AND FRIENDS OF BASSET RESCUE OF MT. 
DONATONS.   THE $2343.00   DEPOSIT WILL NOW MAKE SURE WE CAN PAY FOR 
HEAT IN THE SHELTER DURING THE FIRST FEW MONTHS OF WINTER PLUS MORE!. 
ALSO, 2 GERIATRIC POOCHES IN THE SHELTER HERE ARE NEEDING MORE MEDICAL 
CARE PLUS A TRIP TO SPOKANE, WASH. TO VISIT THE EYE SURGEON.  WE HAD 8 
VOLUNTEERS THAT DAY WHICH WAS SO WONDERFUL TO HAVE AS IN MONTANA, IT IS 
DIFFICULT TO ROUND UP FOLKS...EVERYONE WORKS 2 JOBS AT LEAST AND ARE 
THOROUGHLY EXHAUSTED AS I KNOW SOME OF YOU ALL OUT THERE ARE, TOO.  


THE ORIGINAL WESTERN  HORSEHOE BENCH WAS WON BY SUE ERICKSON, OF 
MISSOULA, MT.  THE SUPERDUPER PET GIFT BASKET WAS WON BY NO OTHER THAN 
OUR PAST SEC'T JUNELL LAWRENCE, FROM MISSOULA, MT. OUR MAYOR OF

OUR SPECIAL ITEMS WE HAVE TO SELL FROM OUR SPONSOR IN MISSOULA, MT. WHO 
HAD BASSETS THEIR ENTIRE LIFE...AND NOW RETIRED IN HER 80''S.   ALSO, 
OUR LOGO ITEMS  "GOT BASSETS" AND MORE.  BLESS YOU ALL FOR EVERYTHING 
YOU ALL DO TO HELP BASSETS.    ANOTHER ANNOUNCEMENT COMING:

WEBMASTER, KATHLEEN GALAYDA::       OUR FIRST EBOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BOOK ALSO.   THE CD IS NOW READY TO SELL FOR $20.00.  PLEASE BE PATIENT 
WITH ME AS WE ARE PUTTING THE FINISHING INFO ON FOR PAYMENT, ETC. 
TO MY KNOWLEDGE, THIS IS A FIRST!! 

DROOL TO ALL THOSE WHO'S HEARTS ARE ACHING AND WHO NEED A BOOST.   BLESS 
YOU ALL.

also in little letters i really do not even want to see...but, as a 
precaution.....i am telling you there is an outbreak of a wildfire 11 
miles up the mountain from me here over in the next county.  It is 
spreading...now 432 acres........i shiver to even type this..but, I just 
called the Fire Chief here in Frenchtown, and told him I will never evac 
again.  My trees have been cut away to keep us safe, and they better be 
prepared to save this ranch and shelter.  After 2 events lately, I do 
not have the strength nor the energy to leave again.  The fire is raging 
near Arlee, Mt. over our hill and is only 10%^ contained.
