Murray & Melissa’s Dog House - Matthews, NC

August 5th, 2008

I say dog house because dogs Duke & Duchess obviously run the roast.  Two beautiful goldens that get to do (& do) whatever they please. I grew up w/ Golden Retrievers & know how they can be, but these 2 are more than a handful.  This was quite evident as I received numerous tongues to the face, paws to the nuts, & had to retrieve my cell from between several sets of canines.  It should be pointed out that the phone was on top of the dining room table when it was retrieved without request. 
This was the first time I had met Murray’s belle Melissa & she contained all the charm & hospitality of a true southern lady.  I will say her energy level rivaled that of the jacked-up ADHD dogs.  OMGzie girl sent me more emails, checking on her bitches, while she was at work than I have received from all other emailers combined this summer.  The funny thing is after Melissa’s nightly sugar buzz, she would crash like a 3 yr-old who had spent the day at Disney. To the point where Murray would scream @ her head without so much of a flench on her part.  Murray is quite the opposite which helps balance the extreme energy of the other residents.
I greatly appreciate the meals, beer, & lodging.  I also want to thank Duke & Duchess for not completely castrating me.

    Scotty - if you passed by my place (and I know that you did) and didn’t stop (I will be pissed, which I am). OK - come back to PA. I will fill your traveling ass with all kind of beer. Plus, I’ve got a pool (so you can clean up). If need be, I will even work my connections (Crutchley) to hook you up with some local hotties (actually, that is a stretch). Come drink some Yuengling (America’s oldest brewery). Be a Patriot. Don’t leave us hanging in PA. See you soon. Ciao…JK
