Howllow Fellow Basset Hound and Howl low day card lovers…I really do love it and many of you will recognize the picture.  It was from our Christmas Eve card a few years ago.  I decided to make it the 2016 official card from bassethoundtown!

Really, I can’t imagine a card getting much cuter than this.  I had some great ideas for another card but the weather did not cooperate.  There is always next year…

And next year here we come…

More loving looking forward later…Cat, Daisy Lynn, (Chaps and Emma ATB – knowing that Santa will show up soon…)

Howllow Fellow Basset Hound and showing of The Mayor lovers…This is just too cute – see what you think…

Daisy Lynn is not a huge fan of wearing clothes or anything for that matter.  She even hates her own collar and leash.  Have you ever heard of such a thing?  Just so odd…

But she sure looked cute for a few seconds…

I bet Santa and Mrs. Claus would just love it!

More loving sharing viewing pleasures later…Cat, Daisy Lynn, (Chaps and Emma ATB passing this along to the Claus family.  They have connections you know…)

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and missing the sun lovers…It is so strange.  I cannot remember a time when there was no sun for so long.  Today it is raining ice slush…blech…I also bought some really cool solar panel Howl low day lights and that is a bust.  No sun, no lights.  So…let’s brighten things up a bit.  Remember I told you that Daisy Lynn was doing a Novice Trick class on Facebook?  She is really doing great and is going to accomplish her title.  Here she is getting a point for jumping over a pole!

I have a very short clip of her actually doing it.  I am going to try and post it here…

Well we will see if it works.  Seems odd that it is so hard to post a video in WordPress.  I think you need QuickTime to see it.

Anyway…it is cute!

After all of the training Daisy Lynn likes to hunker down in her down and take a nap!

We did have fun at the Dickens Brunch.  Unfortunately, they overbooked this year and that took some of the charm away.

But of course Grandma and I were still very charming…

And Daisy Lynn got her sausage link…hehehe

More loving more sun later…Cat, Daisy Lynn (Chaps and Emma ATB eating figgie puddin’;)

Howllow fellow Basset Hound and Sunday Lovers…Today is a fun day in basset hound town.  Grandma and I are going to our annual Dickens buffet at the Omni Netherland Plaza.  Wow – what a treat.  Old time carolers roam around while you stuff yourself silly!  LoL – I will sneak home a figgy puddin’ for our Mayor.  We also need to get crackin’ on our Howl low day card.  I have the idea in my mind so stay tuned for that one.  I will post some pics later today but in the mean time…

Howl about this oldie but goodie?

Wow – it seems so long ago.  Great memories for sure.

More loving memories later…Cat, Daisy Lynn, (Chaps and Emma ATB still dreaming of sugar plums…;)

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Madison, Indiana lovers…Grandma, Daisy Lynn and I had such a great time trecking over to this quaint town recently.  There are all kinds of cool little antique shops and lovely walking tours.  Since it was only about an hour an half away it was well worth the adventure.  Grandma had read about this little town in a local magazine and they said that a place called Hinkle Hamburgers was not to be missed.

It was a very warm November day so I kept the AC running in the BHV (basset hauling vehicle) and we could see my car from the window…

It has been there since the 1800s and the burgers just taste better on a flat top grill…

It was really good and fun…

We decided since it was such a nice day we would also do a photo shoot of Daisy Lynn in a one of kind – snood to be listed in the boutique at some point…

Madison has this really cool old fountain right in the center of town!  Perfect for a photo shoot…

They had just decorated for the Howllowdays…

We had so much fun.  Daisy Lynn got decorates as well and is a great model for sure!

This snood is from the fairyland collection.  It is a stretch velvet adorned with a matching tassel trim. So cute…

From there we went to the public library to drop off a Lily Book.  I just love dropping off Lily Books to town libraries.  It is really very special…

Next stop – the local book store…

Keep your paws crossed for Lily…

We wandered on down main street and made a friend…what a pretty boy!  Daisy Lynn was very impressed with what we call a “lace body…”  hehehe

We did learn that Madison, Indiana is not very dog friendly when it comes to lodging – which prompted us to drive back towards bassethoundtown and pull into a Kentucky Start Resort Park called General Butler.  Kentucky State Parks are the best and General Butler did not let us down…

The Lily Book is also being considered for their gift shop…Really, howl could they go wrong???

It was a great adventure and another stop along the book tour of life.

More loving the back roads and book stores later…Cat, Daisy Lynn, (Chaps and Emma ATB having a rainbow burger on a flat top grill…;)
