Rumor update

Hi Julie,
Just an update on beautiful little Rumor. Warm weather has finally arrived in Northwest Indiana, although last week the temperature was 20 degrees with 50 mph wind gusts. Rumor is doing very well in agility. She loves the tunnel and is jumping quite well. She has attended one class with Leslie, but that was an obedience class. Once the weather warms up she will attend agility outdoors with a class. It’s easy at home to work one on one with her because she is a good listener. She and Izzy are still almost joined at the hip. They are great buddies, and sleep curled up together. She still is afraid of men wearing work boots, so she isn’t at our office furniture store very much. She is tentative around our grandchildren (ages 7-17) but they have Odie who loves to play with them.
I love the website. It contains so much information.
Thanks again for trusting us with Rumor.
Judy
Backroads to Scottsbluff
Posted: April 5, 2010 Filed under: Apso Aficionados, DRambles on Black Mountain 2 CommentsLast Friday, taking the backroads, I met Vickie in Scottsbluff, Nebraska…
The motel was across the street from cornfields…
Keeper picked up two points. Jill picked up two points. Elliot wanted the ‘no-hair-on-the-head’ look. He didn’t like not being able to see. Dante won Best of Breed both days and made the cut in the group on Saturday.
This year, in yet another attempt to slow down the pace of my life, my mantra is Images, Backroads and Backyards. Cornfields and cockle burrs may not appeal to most. For me, they are memories of my past. As I left the fairgrounds, I made a loop through the RV parking. Years ago, Nate traveled with Mary and I in her motor home to dog shows in many states. I loved the Scottsbluff Country Fairgrounds because there was a playground at the end of the RV parking. We would snag the spot closest to the playground. This is all that remains of that playground. If you look closely, traces of the path where children of yesteryear swung around and around this pole remain.

Wisdom for a Friday Afternoon
Posted: April 2, 2010 Filed under: Apso Aficionados 1 CommentTo my friends who enjoy a glass of wine… and those who don’t.
Ben Franklin:
In wine there is wisdom,
in beer there is freedom,
in water there is bacteria.
In a number of carefully controlled trials,scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) – bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop..
However,we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer
(or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.
Therefore, it’s better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit!.
