Dear Bacon

Hey friends – I’m stepping in for big brother Bacon this week since he is away at Summer Camp.  I hope I brought him so justice – enjoy! ❤ Houdini

Dear Houdini – This is not funny.  Really it’s not.  My human is crazy.  Can you save me please?  Signed Potato in Waiting

Dear Potato in Waiting – BARKS!  I gotta admit that it’s a little funny.  Really think about it.  How many anipals can say they look like a hot potato and you are hot.  I say save the look for Halloween and go for it.  You will win so many contests for originality and beauty.


20131208-211622.jpgDear Houdini – I heard about your accident the other day with a pillow that exploded at the Hotel Thompson.  I *know* you can relate.  You *have* to relate.  I was sitting on the front porch minding my own business when this cushion suddenly blew up for no apparent reason.  I was just as shocked as everyone else.  Signed Mystified

Dear Mystified – I know!  It’s unbelievable how those things happen out of the blue – spontaneous combustion does happen.  It is highly documented.  I think pillows only do this when dogs are around so that we can personally take the blame.  Yeah – that has to be it.  Surely it’s not because of something us sweet devout pooches did.  No way!  I say cover yourself my friend.  No camera documentation means you didn’t do it.  I’m sticking to that story and you should too!

Dear Houdini – I know you are just a mere dog but let me tell you something, I’ve earned my stripes.  I’m fierce.  I’m strong.  I’m a rocking cat that can shake your world if you don’t obey me.  You just remember that about us cats okay.  Cats rule and dogs drool!  Signed Stripes

Dear Stripes – Barks and laughter!   Wait a minute while I pick myself up from laughing and rolling around here on the floor.  Cats rule and dogs drool – too funny.  Okay maybe we dogs do drool when we are excited but there is no way that cats rule – sorry Hemi and Mouse Girl here.  Us doggies are higher on the who is in charge chain.  And your stripes – oh my dog!  Really?  Walk away from the sun my friend and tell me about those stripes then – Barks!

Dear Houdini – There I was sitting on the sofa from another long day of working on the farm.  I was so exhausted.  I had the television on for sound and that’s when I saw it.  A commercial for a dating service for Farmers Only.  WOW!  I never knew it existed.  Do you think I have a chance with a lady?  Signed Stetson

Dear Stetson – YES you do.  We all have chances.  And how could anyone say no to a cowboy hat?  Mommy says those are hot!


20131208-211746.jpgDear Houdini – There is a problem with this slide.  Really there is.  I slide down it all of the time.  But this date, I did’t slide.  What the hamster world happened?  Signed Stuck

Dear Stuck – Perhaps it was too dry to slide down. Perhaps you have more fluff than usual and it was a little tight?  It could happen.  I know sometimes my t-shirts get a little snug like that and I have to cut back a bit.  And then perhaps you just need a gentle push?  Call me if you need some assistance.  I’ll get the jaws of life out to get you out of a tight spot.  In the meantime, take it easy okay.


Remember Dear Bacon can’t happen without you my friends.  Keep your letters and pictures coming to my email.

Let’s Make a Love Connection – Bachelorettes

Love is in the air here at the Hotel Thompson.   Valentines Day is right around the corner.  It’s a special day .  You see mom and dad got engaged on Valentines Day many, many, many years ago – snorts.

Our pet rocks here are growing and want to do something special for Valentine’s Day.  They are willing to be involved in the making of a love connection.  Kind of like a twist between the Bachelor and the Dating Game.

We now have three men rocks – Manny, Benedict and Bashful.  We also now have three women rocks – Princess Coralena, Virginia and Rockelle.  We are putting love to the test and are counting on you for help.

We are going to let you our blog friends VOTE on who goes out on a date with who for Valentines Day.  I will post their ‘date night’ on Monday, February 17, 2014.  What they did, where they went, what troubles they got into.  You know all of the juicy behind the scenes stuff.

Today we vote for the bachelorette.  Who will go out on a date.  Here’s a little bio of each for you to decide.

20140112-014826.jpg

Bachelorette #01 – Princess Coralena

Princess Coralena comes to us from the happy place called Hawaii.  She is a princess who loves romance, kind gestures and spice.

Princess Coralena’s view on love, “I am from the romantic islands of Hawaii where love is in the air at every turn.  One day I will find my king to cherish and treat him like the rock he is. I love dancing – especially hula dancing – winks.” 

——————————————————————————————————————————————-

Bachelorette #02 – Virginia

Virginia came to us from Stuart in Virginia.  She is sassy.  Don’t let that demure look of green eyes and red lipstick fool you.  She is a vixen.  She’s read more Harlequin Romance novels than mom – and that’s a LOT!

Virginia’s view on love,  “I look for a rock not on his looks but on his undying love for me.  I’m looking for my missing piece to my heart and when the matching piece finds me, it’s for eternity. I love camping out on the sofa and being a couch rock watching romantic movies while holding hands.

——————————————————————————————————————————————-

Bachelorette #03 – Rockelle

 Rockelle came to us from Fozziemum in Australia.  She has the cutest, sexiest little accent.  She loves to party and have a great time.

Rockelle’s view on love, “Love as much as you can as long as you can.  I love long walks, cooking and eating.  Who doesn’t like eating?  My favorite date is holding pebbles in a mountain stream while watching the stars in the sky.

.

So who will it be?  Who would you like to see go on a date on Valentine’s Day.

Today we vote for the guys.  Who will go out on a date.  Here’s a little bio of each for you to decide.

Bachelor #01 – Manny

Manny comes to us from France via Easy.  He is a lover, has humor but is French and knows how to use it.  He sweeps women off of their rocks in just a matter of a few words.  Manny is also an excellent chef specializing in French cuisine.

Manny’s view on love, “I am French.  It’s all about the woman and my love for her.  One day I will meet the rock that makes my mustache curl and I will know it is her.  I will treat her like the Queen she is.”

——————————————————————————————————————————————-

Bachelor #02 – Benedict Cumberock

Benedict Cumberock comes to us from the United Kingdom via Misaki.  He’s a wonderful addition to the Hotel Thompson.  Has a great sense of humor, makes everyone laugh and loves to play games.  He has a sensitive side and quite the history buff.

Benedict’s view on love,  “What matters most is what is on the inside and I have lots of love there.  When I finally find that special woman who looks past my eyes, I will be in heaven and there’s no place like that.”

——————————————————————————————————————————————-

Bachelor #03 – Bashful

 Bashful started out here at the Hotel Thompson.  He was a donation to me so that I would have a bit of company.  Bashful has a wicked sense of humor with lots of love and a huge jokester.  His favorite thing is to travel the world being an international rolling stone.

Bashful’s view on love, “Love is something special.  Something to be shared with your other half that’s meant just for you.  You treat her as special as she is for as long as you can.”

So who will it be?  Who would you like to see go on a date on Valentine’s Day.
