Madi took the bull by the horn and asked Riley to be her date. Being the gentleman that he is
Riley told Madi that Tessa was his date but he would be happy to escort Madi to Twix's Date Night also. We are sure Riley will have all four paws full entertaining both of us and equally sure he is MAN enough for the job.
Here's hoping the ladies are good a sharing their man for the night. Madi had such fun at Twix's Ladies Night out last fall and met so many nice pups and kitties. She is really looking forward to Date night.
We hope there will not be any fur (K9 or feline) flying before the night is over.
Tessa I know we'll be BFF before the night is over.
Madi.
While doing my daily reading and now that I have a date I'd like to tell you what I learned that today, April 12, 2010 is
"Big Wind Day". At first I thought it might be talking about Mom since she is always
spouting off about something....but as I read on I found that it
commemorates the highest wind speed
ever recorded on the planet. Can you guess where? It was not in the middle of a hurricane or tornado. On April 12, 1934 the staff of the Mount Washington Observatory recorded the highest surface wind ever measured, anywhere on earth. The big wind was officially recorded at 231 miles per hour.

Hi Madi & Mom,
ReplyDeleteWe will look forward to hearing about your date with Riley, we want all the details.
What an incredible coincidence, we were watching something on tv this evening about the Marty the cat at the Mt Washington Observatory. Looks like Cheyenne-Millie has already given you the website link.
Hugs & Purrs,
Judy and Cindi Lou
Concatulations on your date with Riley!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is one very interesting fact! 231 mph!!! Goodness!
Oh, that's going to be interesting. I'm glad that Riley is escorting you. And that wind -231 miles an hour. I hope it never gets that windy here. I'm pretty sure that all the trees in our yard would come crashing into the house if that happened.
ReplyDeleteOh, my gotcha day is April 4th so you don't have to worry about that one for a while. What's yours?
wags, Lola
Wowee! That IS a big wind! I'm bets we've had some close to that around here this spring. Um, but I'm kinda embarrassed to tells ya that I thought maybe this was going to be about toots since I've heard some humans call it "passing wind."
ReplyDeleteWe're gonna have SO much fun on date night, Madi! I can't waits!

ConCats on your date, Madi! You are such a purrty girl that finding dates probably come easy for you! And 231 miles per hour! Holy Smokes! Mom likes licorice too. So does Dad and Wren. We will definitely check out the zoo when we come down. Here's our days...

ReplyDeleteHi Madi! Wow, we are impressed you are willing to share Riley - that is so nice of you! We are sure you will have a wonderful time!!
ReplyDeleteWe find big wind day interesting - that 231 sounds really fast - we can't even imagine it!
Our birthday/gotcha days are as follows(oldest to youngest).
Kirzon - Gotcha day 11/25, birthday 9/25 (ish)
Lola - gotcha day 5/5, birthday 3/15
Virgil - gotcha day - 8/2, birtdahy 7/4 (ish)
Barney - gotcha day - 6/17, birthday 5/16 (ish)
The newbies who we don't actually have yet have a birthday of 3/31 - which is why they are still wtih their mom! We don't have a gotcha day set up yet but it can't come too soon!
Hi Madi, it's very windy here today, so Big Wind day seems appropriate.
ReplyDeleteLuv,
Cloud
PS. My berfday is June 28th! :-)
That is a lot of wind. When it is very windy here, we run with our ears flat and our bellies low to the ground.
ReplyDeleteHI Madi!
ReplyDelete*wow* I am impressed! You read books that is pawsome Madi! We did not know that was the strongest recorded wind speed and honest to goodness we don't ever experience even anything close to that. Momma has been through one hurricane (and countless near misses) and those winds were strong enough to scare her.
My purrday is July 1st
My Gotcha Day is June 12th
Boo's purrday is Oct 1st
Jinx & Ping is April 1st
Gracie is Feb 1st
