Stuffy Mail Call

Hello Blog World.
Little Fox and my pal Lightning are hosting the blog today.  Is there a beverage in this retro style fox mug?  Nope, but Lightning is thinking of repurposing it into a swimming pool for him. I say "Go for it".

Lightning is still debating about getting in the mug.  While he's making a mental pros and cons list we got some mail from Sandy.  
Looks like Sandy is on the post card writing bandwagon again.  Three cards.    He mentions that they are paving the street in front of there house and it's making all kinds of racket. 
Sandy, like I, is hoping to get some hiking in.  Sandy mentioned that their Covid 19 cases were holding steady.  I know that some of the states (including my home state) are having huge spikes and it's not pretty. 

I think we should take bets on when Sandy will finally run out of postcards.  I flirted with the idea of sending a package of blank post cards up to Sandy to help replenish his stash.  Don't worry Sandy....I didn't do that......yet.

Another package came for me and my crew.  Oooh, first class mail.  This must be an important package.


Looking at the return label.  Any guesses who its from?
Let me give you a hint....a handmade card (with exquisite penmanship to boot). 

Did you say Droopy and crew?  If so, you were right!
I opened the card first.  Looks like Droopy has been shopping and he came across these cool fox magnets for the fridge. 

Oh my! These magnets are awesome.  They are fox based, have some cool art on them, and one of the foxes holding the magnet has a cookie!  Thank you so much Team Droopy.  These are going on our fridge immediately.
Okay, they are going on the fridge right after we take a close up so everyone can see them, then after Sequoia's walk, and after taking the garbage cans in.

Stay at home order......

Hello fellow stuffies.  Little Fox here.  I don't know about you but I am missing my hiking and day trip adventures right now. Currently, the Governor of my state has issued a Stay at Home Order, so being good, law abiding stuffies we are staying at home.

To pass the time our roommates bought a plant. (Bonus points for any stuffy that can identify the plant).  We have been watching this plant grow and bloom.  Yup, that's about it.  I bet my other stuffy pals are real jealous.
My executvive team of stuffies decided to have a meeting. Here we have the Easter Bunny, Lightning, and myself.   We are talking about what we should have for Easter dinner.  Lightning wants seafood, the Easter Bunny wants something vegetarian, and I want chicken.  We might have to do a game of rock paper scissors to determine whose menu is going to prevail.
Speaking of Easter, a cool card arrived today.  Handmade none-the-less.  I bet it's from my pal Droopy and his gang.   Sure enough, he's wishing a happy Easter and his card is perfect.  It has all these hipster bunnies hanging around. My hometown is full of hipsters and coffee shops so these hipster bunnies would fit right in.  
Receiving a nice card from Droopy and his team was a great distraction.  Us stuffies are back to our scheduled activity of watching the plant grow. 
Happy Easter everyone!

Blog World....meet Lightning

Unnamed Sea Otter:  Hurry Drunk Fox, we need to get this post up ASAP.
Drunk Fox: I'm working as fast as my paws will let me.

Unnamed Sea Otter: We need to get this post up by today, September 30th.
Drunk Fox: I know, I know.
Unnamed Sea Otter: Today is Sea Otter Awareness Day.  You know, it's the capstone event of Sea Otter Awareness week.  Did you know that Sea Otters were hunted into near extinction for their furs from 1741 to  1911 when hunting our fur was banned.  The recovery of the sea otter is one of the most successful marine conservation efforts in the world.
Drunk Fox: Yes, yes, I know Otter.......I read Wikipedia too.


Unnamed Sea Otter:  Now, let's get down to business.  In honor of this day I have decided to tell the world my new name.
Drunk Fox: Um, OK.  Let me get Reindeer for this ceremonious event. 
Unnamed Sea Otter:  Yes, good idea.  Get ready for it.  Drumroll please......my new name is Lightning the Sea Otter or Lightning for short.  Thank you for all of Little Fox's stuffy friends for helping me decide a name and I appreciate your suggestions.

Drunk Fox: Whew, good thing we announced your new name today on Sea Otter Day.
Lightning:  Thanks Drunk Fox.  You have been a great helper today.
Drunk Fox: Anytime Unnamed Sea Ott.....oh I mean Lightning.
