Your Day & Epic Pet Health

Today is National Dog Day!

It's Our Day

Are you having a good day, I sure hope so!

Tell me about your day. Okie dokie

Oh, one more thing, I wanted to mention Epic Pet Health again.

Since I am taking the supplement for the pain in my leg, Lee has noticed a change in my coat.

Even my vet said how nice my coat was looking,

My furs are much thicker and coarser.

Coarser usually means low, common, or inferior quality, but not in this instance.

I, Sweet William The Scot, mean more coarse like a double scottie coat. We Scots have a double (hard wiry & soft under) coat.
So there you have it ~ my day is sitting here watching the Black Eyed Susans grow and admiring my furs.

Thanks for being a friend

Whose Home

The birth and childhood home of William Howard Taft, 27th U.S. president and chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. The only person to have served both as a chief justice and president.

We drive by this home often.

Taft earned the nickname "Big Lub" due to his size -- he was almost 6 feet tall and weighed more than 350 pounds. Taft became stuck in a bathtub while serving as president -- staffers used butter to dislodge him. Bawheheeeeee

He was the first president to be buried in Arlington Cemetery, and the first to have a funeral broadcast on the radio. In fact, President Taft's presidential career included a broad range of "firsts": He was the first president to have a presidential automobile, converting the White House stables into garages; the first to occupy the Oval Office, which was operational as of October 1909; the first to throw the ceremonial first pitch at a baseball game; and the first to play golf as a hobby. Along with all of his "firsts," Taft was the last American president to have facial hair.

I, Sweet William The Scot, am here!

Knock Knock!

Who's there?

How!
How who?
How do we get in there?

Knock, Knock!
Who's there?
Bow!
Bow who?
Not bow who, bow wow!

Let me in!!

Last door for me to try.

Knock Knock!

Who's there?

Pooch!

Pooch who?

Pooch your arms around me, because they are not letting me in!

Entrance hallway.

See the cord hanging over the table. The home had gas lights.

The colors are vibrant with many mixed patterns.

Lee loves marble tables.

The menus and invitations to their parties. The menus look delicious.

The key to The City of Manila 1905. Wonder if they have changed the locks?

Maybe they will let a dog in.

Political Satire Cartoons of the day.

Taft's wife, Nellie, did her part for foreign relations as well, initiating the planting of Japan's gift of

thousands of cherry trees that still grace the avenues and banks of the Tidal Basin, changing the face of Washington, D.C. each spring.

This house sits across the street from the big hospital where Lee goes for her sickies.

It's A Bird It's A Plane

It's Solar Impulse Plane!!

It is kind of windy today, but I want to show you what I, Sweet

William The Scot, got to see.

http://www.solarimpulse.com/

The Solar Impulse Plane landed just two miles from my home at Lunken Airport.

This landing was planned only the day before.

It was one of only a few where the general public were allowed up close to the plane.

It flys on solar power WOW!

It is flying around the world on solar energy WOW!

It was a huge success for renewable energy.

Here the crew is pulling the plane by hand up to the terminal so the public can view.

The crew pulls it with a harness like horses.

Some of the Swiss Crew rides bikes out to the plane.

One of Ground Crew. He was so friendly and has such a nice smile. Told me what town he was from in Switzerland and all about the plane.

Lee loved his accent.

There were a lot of women on the crew.

The next morning Lunken Airport was fogged in. The dampness made the crew have to siphon the water out of and off of the solar panels before it could take off.

11,000 solar cells are on the super-long wings that seem to stretch as far as a jumbo jet's. It weighs about the size of a small car, and soars with what is essentially the power of a small motorized scooter

One of the two pilots talking to the media.

I got to meet pilot Bertrand Piccard, doctor, psychiatrist and aeronaut, who made the first non-stop round-the-world balloon flight. He flew around the world in a hot air balloon WOW.

He liked me a lot. Lee had me in a big backpack so I was not walking on my leg.

This happened on June 14th, my leg is better now.

Lee was so tired, but it was worth the effort to see history being made.

Almost ready to leave Lunken.

Ohio is home to a lot of aviation history.

One of the Wright Brothers great granddaughter came to see this plane.

Lunken Airport has seen some history.

In 1927 Charles Lindbergh landed at Lunken and was mobbed by well-wishers.

In 1964 a large crowd of fans greeted The Beatles as they flew in to and out of Lunken for their concert at Cincinnati Gardens.

In 2011 the airport served as a backdrop for scenes in the film The Ides of March.

ByeBye Solar Impulse Plane.

You can become a friend and receive direct news free by going to their site. We signed up. http://www.solarimpulse.com/
The cross-country flight is a tuneup for a planned 2015 flight around the globe with an up-graded version of the plane.

I'm tired now, so byebye.

It's My Birthday & Epic Pet Health Review

Yep I am a firecracker dud!

Born on July 3, 2009

I am four years old.
If you can get here before I consume this whole cake, I will give you a slice.

I, Sweet William The Scot, have been feeling quite poorly. My friend Oz The Terrier, the great and wonderful Oz ringy dingyed me and introduced me to Epic Pet Health.

Dr. Amy Swartz is a holistic chiropractor and civil engineer. Well she sent me her natural supplements for bones, legs, repair and relief. Dr. Amy says all of her products are made of human grade ingredients. The supplements are odorless liquid supplements and chemical, dye, and preservative free. They have things like calcium, magnesium, potassium, electrolytes and vitamins.
Lee liked the sound of everything and I agreed to try them.

I liked the sound of it just gets sprayed on me.
Well I found out I liked being sprayed. I looked forward to getting sprayed it made me feel a little euphoric after a few minutes of being sprayed. It gave me some of my spirit for adventure back.
I started the supplements on June 4th.
I don't hurt as bad as I did.
I am still limping, but I am doing the steps to the outside and I am not whimpering.
I have a small stress fracture in one of my deformed front legs.
I cannot testify to it healing my bones, but I will tell you it definitely made me a happier little fellow.
I give Epic Pet Health four paws up!!!
