saturday drove 160 miles to pick up my new Catahoula, a 1.5 hr trip turned into a 3 hr trip. The Geniuses of the Hwy shut down one lane for repair, evidently those SOBs don't work at night. Got at a Kennel and their was my puppy. We are trying a Female and out of 9 she was the runt. Didn't think she would that small, she could be a new breed a Catawowwowa. Ha Ha . Started back knowing it would bumper to bumper out of Baton Rouge. Crossing a small bridge I see my tire pressure light on, I had been hot footing the Tundra 80 to 85, BAM, blowout told wife never stop on a bridge , coasted about 200 ft from bridge. Called towing company, and Grandson who is staying at our house, come get us. He arrived as towing man was chaining up my truck, we were about 29 miles from home. Wife went with Grandson, they were waiting at my local tire store. Paid the man after unhooking, when we arrived my new puppy blessed our home by taking a long pee in yard. Got a cold beer, load of Nitecap and watched my new dog on porch. Last night we named her COCO, as she is tri color Brown with 2 glass eyes. It was a Good & Horrible day.

Jason had to put PMon down, he turned mean, his Daddy and sister also were mean, surprised and made me really sad. Thought long and hard about this, finally decided on a Female and she was the runt of the litter.

She is a beauty Bradley. I've never seen such blue eyes before. So sad about PMon. I hope she enjoys many relaxing pipe times with you all.
As for cats ... my two one-year old flame-point Siamese cats love spending time on the porch with me, watching the birds and chipmunks while I enjoy a pipe. One of them always tries to sneak pipe cleaners from me.

I'm sorry about PMon. This little gal looks like a trooper. Being a preemie myself, I'm always betting on the runt. Hope she works out to perfection. It sounds like you have a paradise for dogs with room to run, roam, and sleep in the shade.

About damned time, frogman.
Just saw Coco's first picture and fell head over heels.
Keep the pix coming. A lot of us want to watch that darling grow up.
Bradley, you had a great day! Nobody got hurt on the bridge. Your grandson was the cavalry. The faulty tire was replaced. That gorgeous pup has a new home. And then you smoked some Nightcap and knocked back a cold beer.
You had a fine day, mon cher.

I must have missed the news about Pmon as well. Very sorry to hear that, Bradley. I enjoyed the photos you shared. I hope you're blessed with many years with Coco, and I hope you share plenty of photos of her.
