On my trips to pick up my winnings from the many auctions I have participated in I have visited some beautiful homes. Spectacular homes in fact! I wish I had the frame of mind to photograph these behemothic beauties! There was the Dentist home in the far ends of the elite side of Jeff Co. His home had a spectacular view of the forest behind him. The house was on a hill above the forest with an entire glass wall of windows. It was so beautiful. At that house I picked up the lot India jewelry and the five pairs of Bush Nunn shoe stretchers in a gorgeous hue of honey colored wood. Sold every bit of that auction plunder (lol).
The list goes on and on. I have been to some spectacular homes with some breathtaking views. I have traveled to the boonies of this county to claim my prizes. Many in gated communities and those hidden from the world only accessible by narrow lanes in fairy land settings.
But last week took the cake.
LO and I were in yet another county far, far away looking for the home that held my treasures. Down the Interstate, down a county Road, and then the narrow lane that led to the house. This lane was so narrow that cars had to pull over and allow one to pass before continuing on.
Suddenly, running down the middle of the road was a PUPPY! I immediately stopped and LO scooped up the lost doggie. She was black and white and so cute. Maybe 4 months old. LO and she instantly bonded. The house we were seeking was right ahead, a county house with an open floor plan and windows from ceiling to floor looking over the beautiful Kentucky countryside behind. The parking area to the two-car garage and the adjacent barn were littered with vehicles so I left LO and the doggie in the car while I went in to inquire.
We eventually found the owner. We returned the cutest puppy ever to the anxious owner. Apparently, the animals had broken out of the pen and were enjoying their freedom. The other dogs were accounted for, but this one had been "rescued" by us. The owner, cigarette dangling out of the corner of his mouth, carried the puppy back to the pen and thanked us over and over.
On the way home, down the lane, onto the State Road and eventually merging onto the Interstate, LO turns to me and says, "I have lingering Pupp Glow". The follows that up with "I wish we could have kept her".
Me too. But four dogs would drive me insane.
Three dogs already do that.
