<p class=MsoNormal>GM Pw. Xandy Bear dictating from the top of the bed pillows
having apparently just recovered from my oh, so special weekend at the
BW. It was a total blast from the pawty on Thursday night until we packed
up Auntie Amanda’s Subaru to go home. That’s an entirely
different story which I will let Huggie Bear tell. The weather was
absolutely pawfect, my frock and crown utterly fabulous(thanks Auntie’s
Kathi and DOW). I was a vision-everyone said so and I had such a wonderful
time presiding over events and riding in the convertible at the front of the
pawrade. Yes, that’s right the person in charge of lining up the
cars kept insisting we get in front. Apparently the human GM was ill and
didn’t make it and she must have been confused-there’s no way
anyone would mistake me for Bill Dana. Anyway, once we could drop out of
line without crushing any spectators we pulled over and waited for the
hounds. It was thrilling to see all of the people that came out to see
the hounds and of course, moi’. I had many many pictures taken and
received many pets when we would stop on the boardwalk. I highly
recommend the entire experience. Huggie Bear refused to waddle with wee
Gracie Allen-pawhaps she was jealous so she stayed with Auntie Amanda and her
hounds? Anyway, we want to thank everyone who helped us raise pledges
again this year-you guys are beyond awesome! Clyde Kadiddlehopper asked
me to tell everyone that purchased a signed copy/copies of Deer Aint Peggy that
they have arrived and the blondeslave will be sending them out to everyone this
week as soon as she gets them in the envelopes. Yea!!! The
blondeslave did finally download our pictures and if you would like to see them
just send an e-mail and she will forward the albums to you. The pictures
of loading the Subaru to come home are priceless.<o:p></o:p></p>
