Throw Back Thursday.... Brian "golfing" the acorns 1973:
My pal Cathy just got her three new pug puppies, Binky.. Blue.. and Bear.
She got them from back east. Her love dog was Bumbles, a pug she had for 13
years, and wanted another pug after she passed away last year. These three all
came together. They were flown out to Ca and they were exhausted from the
travel. Here they are when first arrived... and then in their snuggy bed!
Happy puppies. Will have a GREAT home with Cathy!

Thank A Mailman Day
Thank a Mailman Day is your chance to say thanks to the guy, or gal, who
delivers your mail. After all, they are there six days a week. The reliable
postal worker is always there doing their job, regardless of the weather. They
are a hardy lot. You'll find some mail carriers on walking routes, wearing
shorts in all but the coldest of winter days.
Did you Know? Pony Express
riders were the most famous early American "mailmen". Their motto was " Neither
rain, nor snow, nor death of the night, can keep us from our duty". This motto
is believed to be taken in part from a motto dating back to ancient times. Among
the most popular variation is "Through rain or snow, or sleet or hail, we'll
carry the mail. We will not fail".
Make it a point to catch your mail carrier enroute today. Give him or her a
great big smile and a great big "TY". If you happen to visit your local post
office, give them a thank you,
too.
