2009 Matagorda Madness

To all our dear friends gathering at the Matagorda Madness rally, Oscar and I are sad to say we will not be able to join you this year. Oscar has a nasty bronchial infection which we are battling with antibiotics, etc and we are laying low for a little while. We hope to see many of you at the upcoming Hill Country Hillapalooza.

We hope you have a great rally and many wonderful bonfires on the beach!

Thanks, everyone, for the get well wishes. It helps lift my spirits. Pete's taking pretty good care of me. He won't let me go outside in the cold to play, but I do get to wrestle with the stuffed alligator!

Isabella,

I'm feeling a LOT better lately, but I do have a complaint against Pete. They've given me puppy steroids that have increased my appetite a lot and no matter how much I stare at him and look forlorn while he eats, he still won't feed me off his dinner plate.

Grrrrrrrr!! (that's the steroids talking) all will be better when these meds are out of my itty bitty system . . .

Hope it's not too cold for you up in Illinois . . . tell your human to throw another log on the fire.

Oscar,
I'm glad you're feeling better. Just give Pete "the Look" and he'll rush to give you people food. (It works at least half the time with my peoples.) They are really good about keeping me warm; I have my choice of three comfy beds, and several fleece blankets, which all make very nice places for my afternoon nap. Have to keep up on the beauty sleep, you know. I have to go now. Dad is cooking something in the kitchen so I need to go supervise. I'm the official taste tester for his creations. Get all better soon and I'll bark at you later, Isabella

Hello Pete. I've Just Stumbled Across Your "Blog." Hope Oscar Is Better And Better. Pete, You're Living My Dream, "Traveling In A Small RV." I'm Recently Retired And Have An Egg In My Near Future, Hopefully. I Speak Spanish, And Matagorda Means, "Kill The Fat." Or, Literal Translation Is, "Kill The Fat Bitch." Excuse The Last Word. Your Meanderings Are Very Enjoyable And I'll Continue To Follow Your Writings. Sincerely Ed.

drpsycho,

Glad you've discovered our blog. Oscar & I are at the point in our lives where we really enjoy the slow meander across the land, seeing interesting things and meeting new people. we're glad when our "wandering thoughts" will bring a smile or moment's distraction to others . . .
