[Dailydrool] Helium balloons

[Marsdoxy2 at aol.com]

Reminds me of my first Basset Lucy Girl,  several years back  Maumee  
hosted  a helium balloon race , a three day event so every day  the balloons 
would all take off about 8:00 AM  and fly right over our  house,  we would set 
up lawn chairs and coffee and go out and watch the  balloon, they were so low 
you could talk to them. pretty cool  about 40  balloons,  well being the 
dumb slaves that we were we took the girls  outside with us,  our miniature 
dachshund loved it but Lucy girl freaked  out big time,  especially when they 
turned on the flames to gain  height,  Lucy actually ran right thru our 
screen door and back into the  house.  did I say through ??????  no one opened 
the door she just went  through the screen and into the living room and 
behind the couch.  another  time we were out walking,  hubby had Lucy and I had 
the Doxie and we were  across the street walking around the hospital and Lucy 
spotted a hot air balloon  in the air over the expressway  and she drug my 
husband home on a dead run,  she was hugging the side of the buildings  
figuring she was safer that way  and my husband who DOES NOT run well was being 
dragged . and I apologize,   but I have a sick sense of humor and I couldn't 
stop laughing.  this dog,  put her head down and was on a full throttle run 
heading for home, do not pass  go and dont stop !!!!!  so after we all got 
home safely,  Fergie  and I walk around the corner and I said  "  WOW  how 
much  fun was that ? " My poor husband had skinned up knees,  skin torn off 
his  elbows from scraping the walls on the buildings, and sweat running down 
his  face   bwahahahahahha  !!!!!   I told him  "we  should do this more 
often "
