Another weekend has zoomed by.

Twister and I did a Meet & Greet on Saturday at the Bethel Park Petco. Of which I have to say one of the most interesting side events was watching (when there were no customers interested in greyhounds) a young man and his father buying a snake, and all the hardware and apparatuses appertaining there-to. Dad wanted no part of it. Said young man is in the background of the photo, wearing the grey hoodie.

Snakes aside, it was a nice couple hours, and I think we got at least two or three people interested in adopting a greyhound. Oh and in the photo, Twist is cut off on the left. Hogging the camera is FX, our co-star for the afternoon. Thanks to Rob McGinley, FX's dad, for the image via iPhone

On to the next topic: One of my very favorite bloggers, Wanders, has decided to hang up his shoes. His blog is Mary Worth and Me and it pokes gentle fun at a newspaper comic strip that has outlived its prime by many decades.

The days are getting so short, I take every chance to sit outside and absorb the sunlight. This afternoon, speaking of comic strips, I felt like I was in "Mutts."

Why, you may ask?

Because, completely minding my own business sitting on a chair in the back yard, I got bonked in the head by an acorn falling from the pin oak on the back slope. And it hurt!

So, was there a squirrel up there laughing?

Hmmm
