Pot Luck Friday #8...Pack Power


Mom and I are really going to stir up the pot today...we're going to answer
a question many of my kitty friends have asked?
"Madi why do you love K9's so much"?..
Well scroll down for the answer.....

I, Madi, am a member of

THE North Carolina State University WOLFPACK.

My love of K9's was inherited from Mom and Dad
Today Mom and I are sharing some very pretty pictures of Carter Finley Stadium aka

WOLFPACK COUNTRY

(you may click to enlarge any of these pictures)

I wish everyone could see these magnificent Wolf sculptures. This is actually a fountain
but due to our very long, hot and dry summer we are conserving the water.
The next picture explains what each Wolf sculpture represents.


Mr. Dick Idol is the artist and a NC native and a former NCSU football legend.

We have lots of NCSU PRIDE in Mr. Idol's artistic abilities!!!

This will tell you a little bit about Wolfpack Turf



Thank you for coming by for Pot Luck Friday.
Madi and Mom

    The wolf sculptures are awesome, it must be something to see when the fountain is operating.

    Madi, we think it is fantastic that you are a card carrying member of the wolf pack but we have one question. How do you carry the card? MOL!!

    Hugs & lots of purrs,
    J and Cindi Lou

    Oh, I love those wolves! I think that one of them looks like my great, great, great, etc, etc. grandaddy. Madi, as cats go, I bet you're a wonderful wolf. Simone could hold her own in a wolf pack, too.

    lotsa licks, Lola

    ps....if your photos didn't show up, do repost them another time...I've had that happen before, and this is what I did:

    That is, IF you uploaded them to your POST and not an image storage like flickr or photobucket accounts. If you did post them in the editing of Blogger, then, go to picassa and delete them, then try uploading them a 2nd time.

    Wolves are cool but don't get too close to them, Madi. You may have to bring out those claws and tell them who is boss.... Great pics!

    Happy Friday! We are back to commenting again. Mommy is so aggravating sometimes...

    Madi, thanks for clearing the K-9 thing. We DID sorta wonder...but now we understand purrfectly!

    We liked your "song" post and we are so happy that Harley has a definative diagnosis and some medication to try. We read about mega-colon and it seems you can manage it a lot with diet. Paws crossed and big purrs for the lil' guy.
