you guessed it - a Lucy Look-A-Like Contest, where "I Love Lucy" Fans will get their chance to don their best Lucy costume and reenact the famous 1956 episode of "I Love Lucy" when Lucy takes a job in a vineyard and stomps grapes. Also, teams of two will compete in a grape stomping contest to see who can produce the most juice from 20 lbs. of grapes in 3 minutes.
There will be music, food and even a bounce house! And guess what? The best part is that DOGS ARE ALLOWED (on leash, of course)! So, if you or anybody you know is visiting the Charleston area today from 2:00-6:00, tell 'em about the grape stomping festival. Um, don't think we'll be going, though, as it's right smack in the middle of our swimming time.
Be sure to get in on the PAWS CROSSED AUCTION. It's down to the wire and ends tomorrow 8/28! There's lots of great deals so go check it out before it ends! It's never too early to start your holiday shopping!
And all you Pitties out there - don't forget to send in your frog pose entries for our calendar! And tell all your Pittie furiends about it, too! We've already got some GREAT entries. Do you recognize this guy?
Check out more entries HERE. We want to thank everybody that has helped us get the word out!
We've been really slack about visiting blogs and commenting lately, but we've been on some top-secret missions in undisclosed locations. One of our missions is to find the Penny Mine. You might remember that we located the Ruby Mine where Frankie is reported to have found one of his beautiful wives.
BUT, we haven't found the Lucky Penny Mine yet, so Shawnee offered to be on the lookout during her hikes and she found this and sent it to us.
It looks like Frankie might have had to work a little harder to get his Penny than his Ruby! BOL
Well, it Hurricane Irene pretty much bypassed SC and we're keeping our paws crossed for the rest of the country! Be safe!
Looking forward to the Back-to-School Bash next weekend. Keep up with the latest events on Sarge's blog and if you haven't checked out the video that Mona & the Weenie produced, you've got to check it out!
Time to go swimming and then we're gonna need a nap!

Lucy look alikes! That would be a lot of fun!
Paws crossed here in Florida for all of those in the Northeast. Be safe!
What a great auction for such a good cause! We placed a bid for an item!
That wine festival sounds like all sorts of fun! I don't think I look much like Lucy, but I still think it would be fun to try it.
I'm glad you guys are safe from Irene! What a relief!
