Lucky Spot

Lucky Spot was officially adopted by Mister Albietz last night.

Goodbye Lucky....we miss you!

Corn Hole Party

So many people showed up for the corn hole party last night ---- that there isn't enough space to write everyone's name.

The Liar's Dice club has been given more respect....we were given a table and chairs. In the past we had to sit on crates and use a cooler as a table.

WOO HOO! as Jim Flannagan would say.

Spaghetti Night - March 26th

FRIED CATFISH, HUSHPUPPIES and soup/salad was the special at Cook's Corner. Everyone had apple pie for dessert. It was delicious.

Attendance: Mike, Tony and Becky

When Mike got his bill he thought it was too high so he negotiated a discount. We thought this was so funny as Mike use to own a restaurant himself. We asked him what he would do if someone contested his bill. He said "I would tell them to get the Hell Out!". HA!

Dave & Jackie

Miss Stella just called and said that Dave & Jackie cleaned up her yard. Stella has worried about the condition of her yard all winter. Apparently when you are 97 years old you don't feel like raking leaves.

She is very appreciative that she has such good neighbors.

THANKS DAVE & JACKIE.... From Miss Stella and all your other neighbors. You're the best.

Tony Making Chicken Soup

Miss Molly

Unfortunately we lost another special friend. Miss Molly (the goat) was tragically struck by a "hit & run" vehicle two weeks ago.

Though Molly was a difficult friend as she was always trying to eat your shirt or climb on your ATV or car----she was full of energy and liked to have a "good time". She attended most "hood parties" unless she was in "lock down".

She used to scare the dogs just by "rearing up" on her back legs and giving them a good ol' fashioned "head butt". (You really had to watch bending over around her.)

Goodbye our beloved goat!

Corn Hole Party

Apparently while we were on vacation two major things happened: Jackie became the 2nd "Corn Hole Queen" and the dogs have been officially banned from the garage. What???? We have always said that we like the dogs better than the kids --- so why do the kids still get to hang out? Supposedly the dogs have been sitting on the corn hole boards or getting in the way of the game.

It seems like "The Hood" is starting to get too serious about this Corn Hole Game. I vote that the kids are banned from the garage also and have to keep the dogs entertained. Dogs should have fun too!

There were so many people at the party that I'm sure I will miss someone...but let's try to recreate the attendance: Pam, Jim, Traci, Al, Al's kids, Josh, Tom (Josh's bff), LeRoy (Jim's bff), Dave, Jackie, Jess, Carey, Carey's girl and her kids, Danny, Bernie, Mr Todd, Tony and Becky.

Trouble, Lucky Spot, Dehlia, Cookie, Puppy, Bondo and Rosie were the dogs that continuously tried to get into the party but were continuously "kicked out".

Becky taught Tom and Josh how to play Liar's Dice. They are very good "Liars".

Everyone was in such a good mood that it made the party so much fun!!!!!!

Spaghetti Night - March 19th

Mike, Tony and Becky all met at Cook's Corner for Spaghetti night. Becky called Mike on Wednesday to remind him "that it was Wednesday" and the "next night was Thursday". Mike has been having a hard time keeping track of his days.

We told Mike that if he didn't start getting his days straight that we would be forced to "put him away" somewhere nice and safe. He promised to try harder.

The special was meatloaf, corn, salad and bread. The soup was called "Hobo Soup". Tony and Becky both had a piece of sugar cream pie....it was the best!

Mike discussed his cowboy days on the range. He said that he used to ride in a covered wagon and would fight the Indians. He's starting to scare us. We need to either turn down his oxygen or visit him a little more.
