Luee

Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

HAPPY HUMP DAY GUYS AND DOLLS


Happy Hump Day Speakies:

Well the weather is turning around here in Central Florida, highs in the upper 70’s and lows in the 50’s with plenty of sunshine in the forecast. That should make all the Northern visitors happy after spending time locked in from those long winter days and nights. We have a couple of holidays today:


Bunsen Burner Day – A Bunsen burner, named after Robert Bunsen is a common piece of laboratory equipment that produces a single open gas flame which is used for heating, sterilization, and combustion.
