V.I.P. Tours!


This afternoon, Carl Naylor, our great friend and supporter of the rescue ranch, came out to visit us, and he brought a ton of dog treats for our dogs to enjoy! Carl drank some coffee with us inside the Nellybelle and we had ourselves one great visit! Then Tony and I gave Carl, the world’s greatest auctioneer, our ‘V.I. P. Tour’ of our rescue ranch, which included my writing cabin!

As we were leaving the cabin—Kinky showed up with two very special passengers—Steven Fromholz and his lovely sister, Angie! After a lot of hugging and handshaking, we gave them a V.I.P. Tour, too!

Steven and Angie fell in love with all of our dogs, and so did Carl. Carl wanted to adopt everyone of our dogs, but couldn’t because of a promise he had made earlier, to his beautiful wife, Debbie, because they already have nine dogs and cats! Needless to say—we understood Debbie’s logic and we didn’t let Kinky pressure Carl into adopting a dog.

After tour number two was completed, Kinky invited all of us to come over to the Lodge—and so we did. We had a fun visit there, too. If Carl wasn’t making us laugh—Steven was—or Kinky was! I didn’t have a chance to be funny, because I was laughing so much!

Steven and Angie had to leave first, because their drive back home was over a five hour drive. Carl stayed a little bit longer, and then he left so he could keep an appointment with one of his clients.

Our visitors today were a lot of fun and sadly, the only thing wrong—was that Carl’s wife, Debbie was unable to come, but Carl has promised to bring her back on the next visit and we can’t wait! Today has been a great day!

Thanks Ms. Nancy and Tony for the great tour -- we enjoyed our visit, the marvelous pup facility (and wanted to adopt all of them like you said!) Our trip home was safe and uneventful after a most marvelous day with y'all, Carl and Kinky. Keep up the good work and holler when we can help! Luv,
Steven Fromholz & Angela
