There is an imaginative soul in our neighborhood who loves
outrageous outdoor decorating. For his wife's birthday,
he put up a big sign that said, Happy thirty first Birthday, Patricia and he put thirty one pink flamingos
on the lawn. They were about 3 feet tall and he stationed
them at random so it looked as if they were grazing. I cannot imagine where he was able to purchase them or what
his better half's reaction was. They didn't stay up over
night because Ashley and I looked the next day.
Their Christmas and Halloween decorations are so lavish. I
am looking forward to Easter. In case you are wondering,
the flamingos weren't real. When I see flamingos, I am reminded of Denny and Alan on Boston Legal. They claimed
they were flamingos too.
Rex got his shots yesterday and was thrilled at having a
ride. The Vet didn't have time to clean his teeth so I
guess I will start washing them. The Denta Sticks work much
better than the greenies on his teeth so they aren't too
bad.
I was offered a little boxer/bulldog that someone had
brought in to euthanize because she had chewed a computer
cord into. They often keep healthy, young dogs and try to
find them a home. This little girl had all her shots and
was spayed. I called Ellie and told her but they weren't
interested.
Yea, I have finished cleaning out closets. Habitat for
Humanity came and got everything that was useable and
workable. Ted even parted with an electric drill.
Have fun over the weekend. The sun is shining and it should
be warmer here today.
I am surprised Teal does not see flamingos because she lives further south than me, but I guess they live further south than both of us. I do see roseate spoonbills. They are nearly the same size and color but have those awkward looking beaks.
