FFWC Reunion--Mission Accomplished!

Our reunion was a huge success! Eleven of us were in attendance, and we had a ball. It's just so great to get together and catch up on what's been happening in our lives, and to reminisce about all the fun we had together at Texas Tech. We went to Ruiodoso Downs and watched the horses run...a few of the group even won a little money betting on the ponies! Something unusual happened at this reunion...we had a couple of mascots join us! One morning, a large black dog appeared at the back door. We didn't know if it had been abandoned or was lost, or was just a neighborhood dog. She was hungry and thirsty, so we fed her and gave her a bowl of water, which she lapped up. This was the day we went to the races, so on the way back to the house, I stopped and picked up a box of dog biscuits in case she was still there when we got home. She was nowhere to be found, so we figured she had gone elsewhere. I was getting ready to go to bed when she just appeared on the porch, so I gave her some biscuits and went to bed. Then next morning she was still on the porch, so I gave her some food and water. We were still wondering about where she came from and where she belonged when suddenly we realized there were two of them! The one who appeared first was younger, the second one was older and a bit more grey around the muzzle. We named them Sally and Sue, and I decided that Sue must be Sally's mother. The two of them were so sweet, well-behaved and very polite. They were our protectors for the remainder of the reunion. Of course, I took pictures.....
