Mom's getting ready for the Christmas Parade now.......well, the truth is the florist is getting mom ready for the Christmas Parade........they're decking out my stroller....I'll send pics.

Mom has some really great news.....she's been working on getting this really important piece of history .... the Alexander Inn........and guess what.......they're buying it!!!! At a really great price...now she has to raise the first $1,000,000 so they can get started with the clean up - but shhhhhhhh......don't tell anybody - she hasn't issued the press release yet - she'll do that tomorrow after a short meeting with the city about the existing code violations....and believe me there are a LOT of those......She's also got a meeting tomorrow with some engineers and other smart people so cross your paws that they give her money and more importantly that they offer to do a lot of the planning and stuff for FREE.........you can read about the Alexander here if you want http://www.revitalizeoakridge.org/alexander-inn.php

Hello

So - did ya'll think I was gone???? Actually I'm still alive and well in Oak Ridge!!!!

I know, I know - it's been like forever - but mom has just been swamped. We don't have any pictures - but we just wanted to say hello....Today I helped mom out on making scarecrows for some dumb scarecrow contest she cooked up for the Pumpkin Fest - since noone else has built a scarecrow yet Mom took it upon herself to build 3 of them so that she can take them to the TV station on Friday - She's doing a pretty good job about getting publicity for the big Revitalization Effort - right now she's busy preparing for the Pumpkin Fest www.pumpkinfestoakridge.yolasite.com and for the Taste of Oak Ridge www.tasteofoakridige.yolasite.com

Also today they had a meeting with the city and it looks like the city is going to give the effort some money - the good news there is that it means they can start to pay mom for all of her hard work - so maybe she can charge the camera and take some pictures of MEEEEE -

When I finish building her scarecrows I'll take some pictures of my hard work -
