they made it to Massillon OHIO
They are here!!!! My dog showed a real interest right away. I set him in his place, and explained they were off limits. It is real cold here, so I put on TipToes sweater on. We will be off to The Mountaineer in WV on Thursday. Hope those 2 like to gamble and party!!! I will keep you all updated.

Laurie,
I am glad they arrived safely. I really miss them. My dog, Pepe, chose to ignore them. I did find an ad that someone had added to the box and I will mail it to you so you can put it back in the box. I must admit the ad upset me because it was how to "eliminate rodents safely and humanely." I was afraid it might upset them if they saw it.
Love & hugs,
Marlys

Are my eyes failing me??? Did you say the ad was for
how to eliminate rodents safely and humanely???
What's up with that????????
Maybe you should hang onto it or shred it.
Sheila got the kids reading glasses and they
could quite easily read it. I hope this was a joke.

Sorry, Pinkie, but I already mailed it to Laurie. I am with you. I thought it was appalling. Maybe Laurie will destroy it. I am glad I don't know who put it in there.
Love & hugs,

EGADS is right. Something has to be done about this and quickly.
Laurie, please destroy the offensive material. We can
chalk it up to Spam, Terrorism, Hate mail, or just plain
poor judgment. Destroy it Laurie and we will never
mention it again - no questions asked.

Thank goodness for small mercies.
I am so glad you retrieved this paper
from the mail box and have destroyed it.
Let's consider this a done deal.
Thanks Marlys.
