Halloween Golf Post

Mommy went Miniature Golfing with some co-workers in Center City Philadelphia.

The Golf Course was decorated all spooky for Halloween.

Now since Mommy was with co-workers, she didn't take any pictures of Flat Lassie and Benji in the golf course.  Butt, Mommy has been practicing Photoshop and has been trying to learn how to do stuff. So, here is our Flat Lassie and Benji Photoshop version of it....

The first thing we saw was the spooky cobwebs all over the replica of the Liberty Bell.  

The next thing we noticed was a SQUIRREL on the golf course.  Needless to say, we chased that Squirrel out of there!

This was an interesting hole.  It is a replica of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge.  (Benji kinda thinks the Bridge is named after him.)    The object of this hole is to stand on top of the platform that leads up to the bridge (where I am standing) , you have to hit the golf ball across the bridge and it lands on the green area at the other side of the bridge.    Benji decided to stand in the "Delaware River" in the picture under the bridge to make sure Mommy's Golf Ball didn't end up in the water.

Everyone got their golf ball across the bridge ok, so Benji got out of the water and stood on the green area.

Mommy's ball is the RED ball.  How in the world is Mommy supposed to make this shot after it came off the Benjamin Franklin Bridge.   Luckily the person who had the purple ball was golfing right before her, so, she made "PAR" on that hole only taking 2 turns to knock the ball in.

Here is a view of some of the other holes on the Golf Course.  The one closest to us is the replica of the "Chinese Friendship Gate" in Chinatown.  The one after that is "LOVE Sculpture" replica.  The one after that was the miniature version of the  "Philadelphia Museum of Art".

Now Mommy insisted on shooting the red golf ball straight thru the middle of the course between the gap in the "LOVE" sculpture.  Butt that was an EPIC FAIL.   She kept trying and trying and trying.  So, she ended up just hitting the ball around it!   We gave her a score of 87 on that hole.  (Butt I think she took more turns than that!)

Mommy redeemed herself on the hole that was after the "Philadelphia Museum of Art."  She actually got a "Hole in One".  This is a picture of us celebrating on the golf course.   Woot Woot!  

A close-up photo of her red ball in the Hole on One!  (Mommy even did a little celebration dance on the course -- thank dog there is no video of that!)

Guess that's it for the Halloween Blog Post!

"Trick and Treat" in Lassie and Benji's Haunted Dog House

Blogville is into the Halloween Spirit this week. (Check out the Linky List Below!)   So, we've decided to join in the fun and have our very own "Trick and Treat" in our Haunted Dog House.

Now our Dog House may look small from the outside, butt there's plenty of room on the inside.  In fact we have 5 rooms in our dog house and even a Grand Piano aka "PEE-ano"!

So, step right up and enter if you dare... to "Trick and Treat" in Lassie and Benji's Haunted Dog House.

Hope you bloggers weren't too scared!


Here is a screen snap from the video of the Magic Number 87 Trick.

We even calculated all the possible digits (see charts below).

Try it -- 87 billion times if you want -- it always totals 87! 

Even if you use number 87 to start with -- it still totals 87 as the final answer!  Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha!


1) Pick a 2 digit number (last digit has to be less than the first) = 87

2) Subtract the reverse.   87-78 = 09

3) Add the reverse.  09+90 = 99

4) Always subtract 12.   99-12= 87

5) You always get Magic # 87.

Hope you can click on these charts to make them bigger.

 Happy Halloween!

P.S.  We entered Pumpkin Chuckin at Sarge's Blog, check it out on Halloween at www.sargespeaksout.blogspot.com .

 P.P.S.  Here we are chucking around a real live pumpkin that Mommy drew us on with a marker.  (Benji thought the pumpkin was a soccer ball, so she had to take it away before we had pumpkin gutts all over the Living Room Carpet!)

Happy Halloween!



Remembering Benny the French Bulldog

We are joining the rest of Blogville  mourning the loss of our dear friend, Benny the French Bulldog.

Benny (Benson) had Liver Cancer and he was trying to "Fight Like a Frenchie" to beat that Cancer.

His mom Andrea posted on Benny's "Go Fund Me" page yesterday that Benny passed over Rainbow Bridge at 2:04pm on October 24, 2013. Benny went to sleep in his mom Andrea's arms.  And that he "fought like a Frenchie. "


Do you remember when we posted those games on our blog a few months ago in July trying to raise some funds for Benny.  Here is our cartoon drawing of Benny from July.

Run Free Over Rainbow Bridge, Benny.

You had a great fashion style, a wonderful sense of humor, and your posts always made us smile.  Our favorite video of you was the music video you did to the song "I'm sexy and I know it."  We always think of you whenever we hear that song.   We are glad we got to know you  thru the blog.
