"Everybody needs good neighbors"

When I lived in Holland as a little girl, we did not have cable. We merely had our old T.V. from the states that got one fuzzy channel. On this hazy station, a british show called Neighbors played daily. The theme song for this old show is the title of my post, which provides a very good lead for my latest entry. 

On MLK day, Mike and I went to Disney Sea which is pretty much the same as Disneyland but just an extension of it. Anyway, our neighbor Brett (Kim's husband) watched Huey for the day and when we got home, we found this note waiting for us: 


Allow me to type what he wrote. 

Brett's Huey Watch Log

18 Jan 2010: 1124 hrs
-Initial meeting w/Huey
-Took him out hoping for copious amounts of excrement
-Mut to my dissatisfaction, Huey only tinkled 3 times!

18 Jan 2010: 1432 hrs
-2nd interaction; mild concern for Huey's bowel condition as I noticed there was no doo doo butter left in the kitchen. 
-Observation; Huey frolicked gleefully in the field that divides our homes.
-Allowed Maverick to participate in hopes that this sensory overload could possibly trigger leaving brown trout on the lawn. 
-This was to no avail, but Huey was fed the remainder of food left out, which would certainly lead to a brown crayon.

18 Jan 2010: 1622 hrs
-I am happy to report that at 1647 hrs on this day of Monday 18 January 2010, that Huey P. Quinn, passed a majestic brown lawn gnome on the property of Yokota AB, Japan!
-Official Statement: I nearly gave up, but nature prevailed.
-Accolade: Huey was awarded with no more that 1 hour in my home. God Bless America! 

I just love our neighbors! I was laughing so hard that I was crying. This watch log will forever remain on our fridge...unless Huey jumps up and chews it...which he tends to do at times. 

Oh and I know you're probably sick of Huey but with this new camera, I can't resist taking pictures of him!
