Today, was a wonderful day! This morning, Ben and Aaron joined us for breakfast and some coffee, and then they went and did their chores outside. At ten o'clock, Linda T., from Harker Heights, arrived to walk our dogs, and so did Amber—from Medina!
While Linda and Amber were busy walking our dogs, and my pot of beans simmered on the stovetop, two really great people, Robert and his wife, Teresa, showed up for a tour! Before giving them a tour, while shaking hands with them, I looked down, "Teresa, are those Justin Gypsy cowgirl boots that you are wearing?"
"Yes!" Teresa said. "I love them! I got them for Christmas!" Then she lifted up her jeans, to show me their Peptol Bismol pink tops.
"OMG!" I said. "I have a pink pair, too— just like yours! Don't you just love them!"
Her answer was short and sweet—"Yes!"
"Well, I'm thinking of buying one or two more backup pairs," I said. "Just in case Justin decides to quit making them." Teresa smiled and shook her head in agreement with me.
I then happily gave them 'The Premiere Rescue Ranch Package Tour,' which included meeting all of our dogs and pigs, going into my Space Ship, and then into Outer Space for a short visit, followed by a tour of our trailer, showing her my pink boots, and my writing cabin! They seemed to enjoy the tour—and I loved meeting these two really nice people. So before leaving our rescue ranch, I gave them a signed copy of my book, 'The Road To Utopia: How Kinky, Tony and I Saved More Animals Than Noah,' and our 2009 rescue ranch calendar! In turn, they gave us a generous monetary donation, and several dog beds, dog sweaters, and toys! And the best part was—Teresa and Robert told us that they would return real soon—to help walk our dogs for us! That made my day or so I thought!
During lunch, I checked my blog, and posted the comment from our two Poodles, Max and Muffy, which I absolutely loved! I then read it aloud, to Linda, Aaron, Ben and Tony, as we ate beans, and my homemade cornbread. Muffy and Max's letter really made my day truly great! I was on cloud nine!
Today, we had visitors out here, taking tours, until six o'clock! I enjoyed meeting all of the many nice people, but I was pretty pooped, when Tony finally closed our gate. Then Kinky calls me, "Nance, can you come over here for a minute?" Buttermilk and I went over to the Lodge.
Kinky and I had a fun visit, caught up with our days goings on, and then I went and said good bye to Ben, and his his two sweet, rescue ranch, Pit Bulls, that he adopted from us— Valerie and Penney. "Ben, I sure hope that you have a great birthday on Monday, and I wish that we could be there to celebrate it with you—Happy Birthday!"
"Thanks Nance." Then Buttermilk and I came back to the rescue ranch, closed our gate, and then I started returning todays many stacked up phone calls. Y'all have a great Saturday night! I'm fixin' to!
P.S. Thank you Linda T., Amber, Tone, Ben, Aaron, and Robert and Teresa—for making this another great day for me! And, my back is much better!
