Bluetooth Dog

I snapped this picture of Folly having a heated conversation with someone on her bluetooth. I pity the fool who was on the other line of this conversation.

To make an extremely long story short, we needed to borrow a trailer to go help friends Michael and Rob move a desk from Family Trust Credit Union to another branch. The trailer was filled with trash so we needed to stop at the landfill to empty the trash. We pull into the transfer stations where one inmate emptied the trailer for us (because we didn't have helmets and glasses . . . note to self, don't ever take a helmet and glasses to the landfill) and the other inmate was washing the "landfill dog". It's not clear on the pic, but the dog's name was "Trash" (it's on the dog house). To wash the dog, the one guy had on work gloves . . . work gloves to wash the dog.
Well we head to FTCU to move this desk that was easily over 600lbs. After 40 minutes and moving it 6 inches, we decided it wasn't going to happen given the fact that we had to take it to a branch that only had a single door (the desk is wider than a single door) and we had to take it up two flights of stairs. Happy Birthday Michael!!!
