Tuesday Hubby and I hosted a luncheon with friends we have had since we brought our first dachshund home 11 years ago. You see when I brought dearest Shubi home from Bavaria 11 years ago, I knew nothing about the care of dachshunds. So I went online and found a dachshund group and learned as much as I could. In the meantime, the men and women on the group became close and when the owner of the list insisted we only speak of physical ailments of our dogs, we all were thrown off her list and we started our own. We decided to call it “The Circle of Friends”.
We have been through births, deaths, marriages and all the other events in life. I’ve been lucky to meet many of the people who compile this group. Most of us have dachshunds still, but some of the group had dachshunds and lost them, and have not replaced them.

After lunch we went outside for the Orchard Tour!
Of course the puppies provided a lot of comic relief.

Tomorrow I go for my 1 month check up for my eye. Wish me luck as I have had sort of a weird thing going on. I won’t elaborate, only to say that I am hopeful all will be well.
Good luck tomorrow I hope whatever is on your mind about your eye is not too serious. Please keep me posted!
Looks like a wonderful day! I hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow!!
Good luck today Maribeth. I’m pulling for you…
Dear DP: You know that you are always in my prayers and I have faith that your eye will be well. Also, looks so good to see green grass instead of our “chinese noodles” that we are currently calling grass during our lengthy drought. Will call soonest. Carol
Oh man – that food looks sooper dooper!!
hugs,
linda….who is worried about your eye!!
Oh how fun, Maribeth! This is wonderful… and the onion soup looks delicious! [like the rest of the dinner ;)]
p.s. thanks for stopping by my blog and checking out my husband’s band 🙂
The food looks exotic in the pictures, although by name it seems less so.
Of course, anytime there are pictures of the puppies here I’m excited!
Good luck with your eye appt.
*drool* That looks like a delicious lunch and a nice way to spend your day.
Now I’m craving French onion soup!
