Grab a glass of wine and some cheese. Your mouse will love it. Click away and venture into the fantastic world of a phenomal lady.

It is with great pleasure and honor that I introduce, my idol, Ms. Evelyn Leavens.

Ms. Leavens is a well known artist that works in many mediums. Her talent is gigantic and you “dear reader” are in for a special treat. Ms. Leavens is known to many of the residents of basset hound town as the author and illustrator of the incredibly successful children’s book Boswell’s Life of Boswell. The book went to number 2 on the New York Times best seller list in 1958. You will now experience the shear enjoyment of her other art work that spans the decades of her 82 years.

You will see many of her works hanging all over this site. You can start with this Blog. View the video and then click on her website via my links page for the full show. We will be honored to feature many, many more of Ms. Leavens upcoming works.

I personally have in my collection Happy Hour.

I am in the process of buying another Boswell piece from Ms. Leavens.

May I present, my friend and idol, Ms. Evelyn Leavens.

The music was selected by myself. Since both the “Boss” and Ms. Leavens are both from NJ, I found it very fitting.

Baby Rhino born – weighs as much as Chaps

May 10th, 2007 - 7:07 am KY Time

Howllo Fellow Hound Lovers: We here, in the region of the world are very pround of our Zoo. We have just made history with the unprecedented birth of a third Rhino Calf. The baby boy weighed the exact same, at birth, as Chaps, your Mayor. That just cracked me up. I called him little Rhino baby all day. This video is of Mom and baby on the day of birth. The first 5 seconds are her actually having the baby, just in case you might think that is too much for you??? Anyway, the rest of the clip is totally precious and the baby actually stands on it’s first day greeting the world and his fans. More Later…Cat, Chaps and Emma

P.S. There was a naming contest, (of course). The Mommy’s name is Emi, pronounced Em-ee. I submitted, Embe. Prounounced MB, also stands for Mommy’s Boy. How cute is that?

P.P.S Happy Mommy’s day Emi
