4th Annual Pet Talk Calif. Bbq

[Cinder & Smoke]

10:30 pm Eastern = 7:30 pm California Time ...

And the BBQ Rages On!!

I finally got through on Staci's cell dinger - after "Mom" gave up
and answered it.

Been on for at least an hour; and think I got passed around to most every
Family represented at the BBQ.

QUITE the Crowd - and judging from the "background level" - a GREAT TYME
is being had by One and ALL!

Nice chat with the Head BarKeep from Thursdays - reporting
all was well and all souls were responding with proper attitudes =
EBBERBUDDIE HAPPIE!!

We need to send the PhotoJournalists over to Station 29 for some snappies
of "Wilshire" - the new Station 29 Fire Mascot.
He's apparently not allowed on ride-alongs yet - since the Engine 29 Crew came
without him today - but he's becoming famous with a bit of a Tail that Pet Talkers
might appreciate.

Now ... since the Three GeoMutts an da Bus Driver are **BUSHED** from a long
afternoon of GeoCaching in the Cleveland MertoParks Hinckley Reservation ...
wer're gonna jump in the BigBed (as soon as I wake the Mutts UP)
and catch zome needed Zzzzzz's.

Nite All!!

I'm glad that everyone is having a great time but where are the pictures? I need to see just how much of a good time that everyone is having. It's been very hot here and is still about 100 degrees in the shade and about 90 degrees in my condo. Even though I don't drink any more, I sure could use a nice cold slushie right now.

Now that I'm home and have had time to rethink this conversation with the fireman - I recall him saying that several dog trainers have been to work with Wilshire annnddd even

CESAR MILAN!!
He's been filmed there!
They have only Wilshire for about 2 months now so it might be next season before it is even aired. But wouldn't THAT be cool to see!

Staci, because I wasn't the one drooling all over Capt. Finn's leg - we talked a bit more about Wilshire.

He told me that the show with Cesar Milan is to air in January.

That's totally neat!

I am sitting here shaking (forgive the pun) like a leaf. A huge branch has
just split off of my maple tree in the back yard. It has covered the entire back half of my house.

It made a noise like an earthquake.

THANK GOD..........NO ONE WAS HERE!

[shais_mom]

omg!
are you ok?
is the office ok?
your house?
the roof?

[shais_mom]

after Gini's last post I don't even know what to say -
posting my pics seems inappropriate.

Staci, of course, post your pictures.

The damage? I don't know yet. I really am still shaking although I called the tree surgeon and my insurance company.

But I don't think I want to go into the back door quite yet. The main branch is just hanging there and could give way at any time.

It breaks my heart, because I dearly love this tree.

But we had fun and should concentrate on that fun - and my intense gratitude that this didn't happen last Saturday - or anytime while all of you were here.
