FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER I HAD TO DEFINE VOLUNTEERING HERE AS USING WHATEVER TALENTS YOU HAVE TO BENEFIT SOMEONE ELSE... DOES THAT WORK?? AND -- HERE--- IT IS WORK... A JOB... AND SOMETIMES FUN... BUT THE RESULTS ARE OUTSTANDING...
******
TEH KIDS ARE ALL LINED UP FOR SUMMER... AND SOME PEOPLE ARE CONTRIBUTING TO THAT INTERNSHIP PROJECT... I HAVE TRIED TO IMPRESS ON THEM.... THIS IS A JOB...YOU DON'T DECIDE TO SKIP IT AND GO FISHING.. OR SOME SUCH...
*****
JERI AND STEVE BOTH DID A FANTASTIC JOB WITH OUR GIRAFFE MOTEL-- THE FINAL EFFORT-- WAS SLIGHTLY CONFUSED BECAUSE I HAD TEH TARP UPSIDE DOWN.. --- WITH VERY LITTLE EFFORT WE DID REVEARSE IT... NOW THE LABEL IS UP FRONT !!
WE MADE IT..
HOWEVER SOME MIGHT SAY WE FAILED AT FIRST-- THERE ARE ALWAYS SOME LIKE THAT COME UP WITH THE MOST NEGATIVE TEH FASTEST. THE SKY IS FALLING..... DRIVES ME NUTS.....
IF YOU DON'T TRY THEN YOU CERTAINLY WON'T FAIL.
WE ALSO DID NOT CENTER IT BECAUSE I WANTED TO LEAVE IT AS OPEN AS POSSIBLE TO THE T TENT. SO WE LIFTED THAt side MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO GET THRU ( IF YOU CAN BEND ) OTHERWISE YOU GO ROUND TO THE FRONT.... THE HP ENTRANCE...
NEXT IS ANOTHER LOAD OF STONE DUST.. WHICH WILL COVER A MULTITUDE OF SINS... AND MAYBE ANOTHER TABLE... MOVE ONE FAN... AND WE ARE IN BUSINESS...
AND CAN FINISH THE 4 PIZZAS LEFT FROM YESTERDAY.
THOSE AURAMIST FANS ARE WONDERFUL-- HIGHTLY RECOMMENED-- THEY APPARENTLY ARE ON AMAZON BUT THEY DON'T TELL YOU YOU NEEED TO HAVE EXTRA FILTERS ON HAND AN D CHANGE ? 6 MONTHS.. THEY HAVE A WATER TANK AND DO NOT NEED A HOSE CONNECTION.

NOW DOGFEST.....
I AM GETTING ALOT OF REQUESTS OF WHAT TO DO OR OFFER FOR THE 2 DAYS... MOSTLY WE OFFER MEET AND GREET FRIENDS YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE AND WANDER AROUND AND ENJOY THE DOGS ETC... PICKING POOP AS YOU GO..
I AM TRYING NOT TO HAVE TOO MUCH... IF ANY.. SCHEDULED EVENTS... CAMERA MARK-- WILL BE IN CHARGE OF ALOT LIKE THE GROUP PICTURE...... AND IF ANYTHING IS HAPPENING HE CAN ANNOUNCE IT OVER THE MIC... WHEN PEOPLE COME HERE... THEY COME HERE... IT IS NOT LIKE THEY WILL BE IN BOSTON AND COME RUNNING OUT FOR A 3:00 EVENT... IT IS A HANG OUT... AND ENJOY WHATEVER YOU CAN .AND LISTEN FOR MARK TO LET YOU KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING.... WHERE...
'*****
SOMEONE DID COME UP WITH A GOODIE....
WHEN I WAS IN EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND-- I WAS TOLD OF A TRADITION OF WHEN YOU CLIMB A HILL , YOU TAKE PEBLE FROM TEH BOTTOM AND PUT IT IN A PILE AT THE TOP.. "A CARIN"--- I THINK IT WAS...
SOMEONE SUGGESTED DOGFESTERS BRING A SMALL ROCK ( NOT BIGGER THAN 6" ) AND SOMEHOW WRITE YOUR STATE ON IT... AND WE CAN MAKE A CARIN AT THE TOP OF PUPPY HILL.
THAT SOMEHOW SEEMS IN KEEPING...
