Who knew a patty could light up a life?
Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Patty Bag Lovers…I have let things get a bit behind in our town. Of course I have been in somewhat of a haze and very sad. The residents have been so kind and caring.
It was the night before New Years Eve and I was wandering around the house. I was getting ready to close all of the drapes and looked out the front window.
So, I stepped outside and looked closer. I had my camera with me and called Grandma to look out her window.
Wow, it was so quite and beautiful. I really could not believe my eyes. They were red and swollen, was I seeing things?
Of course I took a closer look and I had that catch in your throat that you get when you are choked up.
I noticed that the basset cut out on the bags was actually a cut out of Chaps!
See….
Of course I noticed that immediately. Then, out of the corner of my eye I saw a red mini cooper idling down the street. I thought I saw the shape of a basset head in the front seat.
Well…I know of only one red mini cooper that is driven by a basset and that is Nosey.
Hum…here we are. Nosey, her patty, her Mom Marcie and myself at one of our basset hound walks.
I e-mailed Nosey but her Mom said that she was not sure what Nosey had been up to???
We all know bassets can be very sly…..
Those glowing bags were such a blessing that night. It was a very hard night and the cut outs of Chaps, hearts and stars warmed my soul….
I am going with Nosey…Thank you darling girls…..
More loving warm souls and warm patties later…Cat, (Chaps and Emma ATB) stacking in the snow…

How cool is that? What a special tribute to our Mayor. So, what was lighting up the bags?
Oh, Cindy – I forgot to mention that. You take about a cup of sand and one tea light candle. Really, really pretty.
Wat a wonderful thoughtful thing to do. Bassets and their slaves are always so sensitive to others feelins.
What a very special gesture for Chaps and his family. Another wonderful memory
The pictures are beautiful – just like you and Chaps!
What a sweet thing for Nosey to do. How is the image placed on the bags … it doesn’t appear to be cut through?
Yes OM – it is cut through. Of course I Kept a few of the bags for his memorial box.
very awesome indeed.
Oh..my…dawg—I have tears in my eyes…:) This is love:)….Chaps was smiling down, most certainly…
