Looks Like a Cow is Missing!

[salemgold]

I took my Buzz out on a date last night! We went to see Marshall Tucker Band and Dickie Betts play a free concert We had a lot of fun. MTB played most of their old '72 - '74 stuff. Betts played a lot of stuff off the Eat A Peach album. It was good but I was hoping he'd play more of his own music.

Nary a single glance from Security at my Buzz. Smoking is still allowed in open parks here but I was surprised that with 10k people there, not a soul even asked what it was LOL.

Thank you all a million times over for your love

Back in the day you would have been expected to pass that baby around! lol

Sheesh. I saw MTB at an outdoor concert in Savannah, GA in the late 70's. I am soooo old lol

Your not old. Your just better.
Glad your having fun Bovinia. I remember my living with the inlaw days. Gotta say though I had more fun with the outlaws.

 

[Wharf Rat]

Me too~ I saw them sometime in the '70s

We have a lot of the old bands play up here at the Emerald Queen Casino and in the fall at the Washington State Fair. There used to be a place in Olympia called Captain Coyotes that was opened by some promoters of the good bands but that's been a long time ago.

I took "my" borrowed buzz to Misoula yesterday to pick up my daughters pet hedgehog from the breeder. It was the first long distance trip I took without the stinky sticks! The hedgehog is pretty cute!

Really a Hedgehog ??

 

[moorea]

Yes, really. Guess the 4 dogs were not enough for this household! The children were harassing me ALL school year that they wanted pets. I made the mistake of telling them if their final report cards were good they can get pets. Both got all A's. The son chose a chameleon. My daughter however went through a long list of rodents that I would not allow... Somehow or another she got her heart set on hedgehog. It is actually very cute. It only got here last night, so I do not have any idea how it will turn out!

And Bov will like this, she is considering naming him 'moo' because he kind of has cow like markings, I think however 'Dexter' will be the winner.

If I had a hedgehog I'd name it Sonic.

If I had a hedgehog I'd name it Sonic.

I didn't have a choice in the naming, it was all my daughters doing. She went back and forth between Dexter and Kinky, after she saw him she added Moo to the list because of the cow like markings. But in the end, naming him after a serial killer won out! My husband wanted to go with Wedgie. Any of the names were better then my sons choice for his chameleon, he got named Bob!

He would not have been my pet of choice, personally I like dogs. But he is kind of cute. I haven't gotten the courage yet to hold him, but he is entertaining!

 

[Bovinia]

He's so cute!! How could you not love that face LOL

And we are not old, we are aging to perfection I think the first time I saw MTB was in '74

 

[5cardstud]

You mean your memory is still good enough to remember all the way back to 1974? I'm still trying to remember what I was supposed to do today.

Moorea from the hedgehog's digs It must be a Hippie Hedgehog Huh?

 

[moorea]

I assume you are referring to the peace signs. Don't know if the hedgie likes them, but the daughter does. Everything in her room is peace signs, all her jewlery is peace signs bedding,stickers on the wall, clothes etc.

It is a bit funny (ironic, not ha ha) to accessorize the hedgies cage with peace signs and then name him after a serial killer.

You gotta love teenagers! And they think no one has ever felt what they feel, tried what they tried or listened to what they listen to!

Bov, I thought for sure you would say something about the cow like markings! To me he looks like a really tiny little cow!

So based on the concerts you all saw while I was an infant to a toddler I assume you all have a decade or more on me. Since I broke the 40 barrier, I've been thinking I must be pretty old... (I don't feel or think old, just been noticing the amount of time behind me is likely equal to the amount of time ahead) so does this mean in 10 years or so that feeling will pass and I will start feeling like a really fine wine!

Dang Wharf, might have been the same tour. I am trying to remember the 2 other bands that they were with. I was never a MTB fan I was just there for the party It was outdoors at a huge park in Savannah and that is all that I can remember

 

[salemgold]

Awe! That Hedgehog is so cute! I thought that I heard they are hard to keep as pets for some reason?

 

[moorea]

Well he has been here for 42 hours and is still alive.... so he is not that hard to keep. Heck we are now like old pros! J/K

I think the hardest thing about them is keeping their area to the correct temp, it doesn't make it easy being in Montana where we have negative 36 degree days for at least a week each year! We basically converted the walk in closet in my daughters room to a little hedgehog room, this way it will be easier and cheaper to keep at 80 degrees. They also need 12 hours of light. If they do not get that they think it is winter and they will hibernate. It seems if they hibernate in captivity they can die.

The cool thing is, he eats pretty much the same thing as my sons chameleon, worms, crickets etc, so we are set there. The only big difference in diet is the cat food the hedgie eats!

He is very cute. I am a dog person and usually do not go for other pets, so I did not think I would like him as much I do. I still have not ventured to pick him up.

The worst part about all this is I have so much money invested in these two new pets (both ended up being a bunch more then planned when setup was complete) that it is really making budgeting in 3 new Buzz Pro's (1 for me, 1 for the hubby and for my mom) difficult! But at least when the pro's get here they won't need heating, lighting, misting, insects etc. etc, just add batteries and liquid and they are good to go!

LOL I can't remember either. I swear it was at Mountian Aire but I searched and I can't find they ever played there. I do this guy played amazing guitar with his thumb.

If I'd known how much I'd forget, I would have kept better track. I know I saw about 160 Dead shows, but there are so many others that are quite the blur

Reading through this I find...
I'm really glad the cow has been found.....
HedgeHogs are pretty cool looking.....Hope he doesn't have large teeth!!!
Who is Dexter???....Charlie I know....Ted, JW Gacy, Jeffery, Richard...Henry...I know them all...not Dexter???
Salem likes too party....Me too...Well I did....
Wharf....Real adventurers test the limits... What would life be without adventure....A little less blurry I guess....
Someday maybe I'll break out the story about the night I worked a show in Greenville, NC..The home of ECU...once touted as the #1 party school in the nation...With good reason...The Outlaws, MTB closed out by the CDB{a different Charlie!!}
