<DIV>Elwood"</DIV>
<DIV>I find it amusing that soooo many droolers have houndies that "hear wordz they cannot wepeet heer"! I am what I hope - a somewhat refined Southern Lady. However, because of my darling, sweet, (bless her heart,) Clos du Bois - find myself cussing like a sailor. Words that I did not even know I knew!!! This from a woman whose father always apologized for saying hell, or damn in front of me. Bassets gotta love 'em.</DIV>
<DIV>I am behind in my drools, but I have been scanning them, mostly to see what is happening with the Board Waddle. Yesterday was awful - I saw all the postings about Elwood. As all of you, I have been glued to the computer waiting for the updates - praying, hoping and crying for Deb and that rascal!!!</DIV>
<DIV>In the past several of the droolers have posted links to their Board Waddle pictures - I am really looking forward to seeing and hearing about the Doo Dah Parade and the Board Waddle. Cannot wait to hear how Thelma Lu did, I hope she made her mother, Ellie proud.</DIV>
<DIV>Also, I was wrapped up with the Elwood drama, as it should be - that I forgot that April 26th was Chloe's calendar day!!! Please flip back to the 26th and check her out!! Such a sweet looking, pretty little basset, you would never guess what she puts us through. But of course, we love her dearly and wouldn't take anything for her. (most days)</DIV>
