Well... "The girl" and I took a drive with the dog to Poe Paddy Mountain railroad tunnel, part of the Mid-State Trail in PA. the abandoned tunnel cuts through the mountain to the tune of 150 feet or so. It is an exceptionally easy walk, even with the Mt. Bikes that are allowed to use that section of the MST.

She decided it would be fun to take the dog in Penn's Creek for a swim. I was foolish enuf to agree and allow it. I am not sure which one smelled worse, the girl... or the dog... It was tough to tell on the way home. Then "The Girl" got cold so we needed to turn on the heat a little in the car. Which of course boosted every thing.

She has changed her clothes and is off at church. The dog still stinks, although he is drier than he was on the way home. They had fun. But I should have known better.

I should have known better with a girl like you
That I would love everything that you do
And I do, hey, hey, hey, and I do

Whoa, oh, I never realized what a kiss could be
This could only happen to me
Can't you see, can't you see

That when I tell you that I love you, oh
You're gonna say you love me too, oh
And when I ask you to be mine
You're gonna say you love me too

So I should have realized a lot of things before
If this is love you've got to give me more
Give me more, hey hey hey, give me more

Whoa, oh, I never realized what a kiss could be
This could only happen to me
Can't you see, can't you see

That when I tell you that I love you, oh
You're gonna say you love me too, oh
And when I ask you to be mine
You're gonna say you love me too
You love me too, you love me too
You love me too

...than to agree to let the kiddles go with friends to the "campground" from hell - a place I swore I'd never set foot in again - and somehow I got suckered into spending two nights there.
Fortunately, I still have to go to work during the day. :)

let me see if this is correct - based on the title to the above pic the _dog_ is named Radigast?

I wonder what Radagast (the old time TTer not the dog) thinks about this remarkable development?

I don't care how long time a poster radagast might be, he probly got the name from the same place we did. Radigast the Brown is a wizard character in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. He does not appear in the movies, so if you haven't read the books the name will not be familiar.

I knew where the name came from. I just didn't remember it being very prominent thus having both a poster and a dog being called radagast was unusual.

Yep, same name origin. Radigast the brown (dog.)

Girls stink after swimming in the creek? Ew! Thanks for telling us. I'm never doing THAT again now! Wet dog is bad enough.

Get the stench out of the car yet?

One day, God went to find Adam and Eve in the garden, but found that Adam was sitting by himself.
"Where's Eve?" He asked.
"Well," said Adam, "She started to bleed. This happens every month or so."
"So where is she?" asked God.
"Well, she went down to the river to wash up." replied Adam.
"Damn," said God. "Now I'll never get the smell out of the fish."

Spindlette... I never said "girls stink after swimming in the creek..." I said "The Girl" did... and that was _her_ observation. Of course the green scum on the water in the weeds by the edge may have contributed to that.

A good airing out of the car did wonders. Radigast is fine now. But I know he will refresh the next time he gets wet. So I am looking forward to that. >:?/

I had a worn out pair of slippers that got dunked in Pine Creek one time. I fianlly had to throw them out after that because they became so rank they would even overpower the stench from my feet. Not a good thing.

Another Shah Guido G. story ---- (Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine, circa 1981)

We were wondering what the hell happened to Raddy just the other day, LMAO...


FYI:: don't let your authentic Aran sweater get wet --- you'll smell like a wet sheep!  (which is reeealy close to 'wet dog')
