Holiday Gifting VII

Friday, December 18th, 2009

My mom and I used to put together puzzles when I was quite small. And I remember it being so much fun to sit together around the coffee table and patiently search for & align the squiggly little pieces of the image. What a grand sense of accomplishment when it as completed!

What better thing is there to give someone you really truly love for Christmas than a Puzzle with Indian maiden, Tipis and a Rainbow of butterflies?

I think Puzzles are a pastime worth revisiting in the New year!

Oscar’s Rescue Team

Thursday, August 13th, 2009

RESCUE

Beau, Asher, Todd, Kevin, Billy and Lou are resting before the rescue of Oscar….too much party in Richmond and Danville but they will be heading back to the Big Apple soon. The ball game in the Dan River was a highlight of the visit.

BON VOYAGE

Because it appears inevitable that Oscar’s master is coming to reclaim his “child”, the hospitality of the South deems it appropriate that Oscar should have a going-away party. In the process of inviting all of his new friends in Danville, Papa and Oscar started the party early. Oscar says, Come join him for MILLER TIME!

TIME TO GO?

Kevin is heading South to rescue Oscar but Papa has requested a Guardian Ad Litem to review the deplorable conditions of his home life in Brooklyn….unmade bed, dirty dishes in the sink,  beer bottles left on the roof deck, and strange women in his room. His prized possessions are packed but will he really leave the South where he can chase frogs, crickets, lightning bugs, and balls to his heart’s content? It’s been a GREAT VACATION.

BECOMING A SOUTHERN GENTLEMAN

Saturday, August 1st, 2009

My Papa is teaching me how to drink bourbon….I had to start in the high chair but soon could belly up to the table for my favorite drink, a shot of Fighting Cock. It’s underage drinking since I am not quite 14 human years old but apparently, my master, Kevin, was drinking this brand at 15! He even has a scar in his eyebrow from it!
