Finger Lickin' Good—Almost!

Well, I kinda hate to say this, but I had another great day! It started out with Tony and me drinking our Super Smoothies in Outer Space! Then he went to work, and I did some paperwork in Outer Space. While Kinky was driving The Friedmans to Kerrville.

Actually, Kinky was taking Mr. Magoo, who wasn’t feeling to good—to Hoegemeyers, and the other Friedmans just wanted to go along for the ride. Kinky called me from that Orange restaurant to tell me that his friends Julia and Benné were coming out to the rescue ranch, so Benné could adopt a dog! And, The Friedmans were at Hoegemeyers, keeping Gooie company, while he was having breakfast with Max Swafford. We decided to meet at the rescue ranch around two o’clock for the adoption.

At two o’clock sharp, Kinky, Julia and Benné arrived at the rescue ranch! We all visited in Outer Space for a while and they loved it! Then I gave them a tour of the trailer and they loved it, too! Then it was time to go meet the dogs.

Kinky went back to the Lodge, to get some fried chicken, so he and Toto and the rest of my bunch, could have a picnic on our front porch. So, he took off. Tony and I showed them all of our dogs. Benné was considering Kahlua, Bobbie Nelson, Honey, Rocket Man, Blue Pearl and Lucy Lieu, until she met—Red Sky! “Oh, this is the one!” Benné said. “Red Sky just stole my heart! He is absolutely beautiful. This is the one that I want to adopt.”

Another, love at first sight deal! Tony, Julia, Kinky and I were thrilled for Red Sky! Red Sky was fixing to have a great life, for the second time! He had been adopted on June 26th to some good friends of ours, but unfortunately, it didn’t work out, because he was a chicken murderer, so he came back to us. Oh dear! I forgot to tell Benné that!

Benné wanted to spend some time with Red Sky, so Tony stayed with her, and Kinky, Julia and I returned to the trailer to have a fried chicken picnic, on the front porch, with my dogs. It was finger lickin’ good—Kinky nearly lost a finger—thanks to old Thunder. To put it on a bumper sticker—my dogs ate it up! They love Kinky picnics!

Tony and Benné returned just as the picnic ended, so we all went back into Outer Space and visited some more. And yes, there was much laughter. Before leaving, Benné filled out the adoption forms, and then we took off to go get Red Sky.

Red Sky was a little nervous, but quickly calmed down, by the time we reached Benné’s car. After she gave Red Sky some water in a dish—Tony loaded Red Sky into the back seat and then we all hugged and said our goodbyes—then everyone drove away. Here’s a picture of new best friends—Red Sky and Benné! I love it!
