Loc Ness Monster Vacations in Florida??

Hey-- if COULD happen.

New and Exciting Places

One of the good things about being in a new location is scoping out all the new places to shop and eat. We like to stick to locally owned places whenever economically feasible, but especially when dining out. One of our new favorite haunts is Steve Family Diner right on Route 1 (South Washington) in Titusville. They don't have a website (yet). Their onion rings are some of the best we have ever tasted. Their coleslaw is made in house and is excellent. Most of their fish entrees are fresh, not frozen. Many homemade daily specials. We have not yet tried their fried chicken, but we have been told that it is out of this world delicious. This too is freshly hand battered (not frozen) and fried to order. The portions are all quite generous.

The other day we went in for lunch and were treated to a small slice of baklava cheesecake which was made that morning by the owners wife. All I can say is, OMG! To die for!

Our First Grind

Since moving to Florida the first of July, we lost our supplier of fresh ground raw chicken. So, we bought a small meat grinder and did it ourselves.

2009 Greyhound Adoption Expo

Wolfie's looking forward to visiting old friends

Saturday, May 16 and Sunday, May 17, 12:00-5:00 Greyhound Friends will be having their Spring Open House and Wolfie is looking forward to visiting some of his old friends.

If you're around the Hopkinton area, plan to stop by. If you have never seen their facility, this is a great opportunity. I am sure they will have many Hounds looking for a new home in their retirement.

In our experience, Greyhound Friends is one of the finest adoption groups in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If you are looking for a way to support Retired Racing Greyhounds, I am sure they will appreciate it.

2009 Adoption Expo is ON

In case you have not already heard, the 2009 Greyhound Adoption Expo IS happening.

Them Bones, Them Bones, Them Marrow Bones...

We have a friend that gave his hounds some huge beef neck bones. All of his hounds devoured them. Even his tiny beagle chomped hers down to a nub. We excitedly received a couple neck bones for our hound as well, had our son saw them in to what should have been reasonably manageable pieces.

Nothing. A few sniffs and a couple licks.

Damn!

Overly refined greyhound?
LAZY hound? I say the latter, but my wife disagrees.

Even small cut marrow bones do not keep his attention for very long.


What an amazingly beautiful, but equally finicky hound!

He chomps on his toys with more enthusiasm than he does these marrow bones.

I just don't get it!
