Wolvies made it South Carolina!

I met with the GA/Lina gals yesterday at a BBQ place in Santee, and got this baby!!!!!
Wolvie was so glad to get out of that box!!! He "wolfed" down some delicious BBQ ribs, pulled pork, and homemade pickles, along with fresh pork skins!!!! And he LOVES Sweet Tea!!!!
Since the weather was so cold, and rainy at times, he was limited to riding in a "cage"....much to his chagrin, he wanted to be on the back of a bike with some Babe!!!!!
As we drove the 2 hours back to Beaufort, Wolvie and I got acquainted.....I heard his tall tales, and can he ever spin some yarns!!!! A member's husband drove 3 of us to the Sweatman's BBQ place in Santee,SC in a big, new, pretty red Chevy Silverado....Wolvie just was content to DRIVE, looking at chics, scenery, and all. Once we returned to Beaufort, as we passed the Marine Corps Air Station, he wanted to get out and fly in one of the FA18 Hornets....I said I would TRY to get him a ride in one....
once we got to my house, he met my 4 dachshunds....and they really wanted to get him down to their level to play...lol..
Anyway, he came in, met the gang, pottied, got some cold drink, and off to bed...where he is STILL sleeping!!! Lazy Cooter.....I said he could "lounge" all day today, and get rested up, for we have some wild times in store for him!!!
Just wanted to update you on Wolvie...we feel so "honored" to meet a distinguished gentleman, and he is so very polite, does NOT talk back, is potty trained, and he is a "cheap date"....the Lowcountry B.R.A.T.S. will show him some good ole Southern hospitality, for sure!!! I am thinking I may send him on to the Tennessee gals next....just know he is in good hands here....lol....Donna...CD Lowcountry BRATS

Wolvie’s Adventures in Augusta Continued

Due to the cold weather and all of the riding around, Wolvie was a tad tired after this and Denise took him home where they found the sun to be shining brightly. Buggs showed Wolvie the goldfish pond and they discovered if they sat very still, the air did not seem so cold. Denise brought out the fishing poles and the two buddies sat and relaxed as they fished.

Two buds fishing.

Not to worry, there were no hooks involved and no animals (real or created and stuffed) were hurt in the forming of this picture.

Wolvie at the goldfish pond. Fresh air, sunshine and the trickle of water flowing down the waterfall. Ahh, what a day.

Wolvie’s Adventures in Augusta Continued

After romping through the store, Wolvie was taken for a peek at the Augusta National Golf course, Augusta’s famous golfcourse. Of course non-members are not allowed inside so Wolvie settled for his photo shoot outside of the fence instead.

Outside gate 7 off of a side road.



This is Wolvie across the street from the National. The water tower says; Augusta Georgia and shows a picture of the famous Old Medical College building, which is an icon on many things.

Caught in the bag.

Scratch a little harder please, that feels good. Ahh the smell of fresh new sneakers!



How do I look? I think it’s a little big for me, but I like it.

Wolvie’s Adventures in Augusta Continued

Wolvie and his new friend, Buggs.

With the two strapped in snugly and safely, Denise headed to the local Shoe Carnival where Wolvie was introduced and allowed to flirt with the ladies and have the run of the store. Buggs opted to wait outside and eat his carrot.


The ladies watched as he climbed on top of the stacked boxes. Wolvie said he liked the view from up there and wished Buggs had joined him because exploring is more fun in pairs

Wolvie’s Adventures in Augusta Continued

After fun chit-chat, bantering and an interesting interview with Jay Jeffries at news channel 26 in Augusta, Wolvie enjoyed the opportunity to be photographed again. In front of the station, Cheryl obliged Shelby by taking a picture of her and Wolvie.

This is Denise with our famous Jay Jeffries outside the station. (Jay seems taller on tv.)

More Georgia-lina

Look at me... I'm a star!!!

More Georgia-lina

Georgia-lina Chapter Director and a few other ladies from Ga-lina were interviewed on the 14th of this month by a local NBC station WJBF. We took wolvie along for the interview. He had a great time visiting with our chapter mascout Freaky Fredia Frog..I think they are inlove..

Georgia Sweet Tea

Since he appeared to be hungry we ventured on back to Augusta and took him to lunch at a nice Italian Restaurant. As you can see by the picture the only thing he was interested in was the wonderful southern SWEET TEA. (end of his first day adventure)

Georgia

We then rode down and got a picture of him at the Richard B. Russell Dam.


(actually this is at Strom Thurmond Dam, the last pic was at Richard B. Russell Dam - note from blog publisher - oops)

Georgia

Upon entering the Ranger Station Wolvie managed to catch a ride on a Georgia Bobcat and then we found him checking out the Hunting Map for the area. He must have been getting hungry.

Wolvie's adventures in Georgia

Wolvie arrived in Harlem, GA - home of Mary Gordon on Friday January 11th. I was surprised when I opened the box and Wolvie popped out. Of course, he was immediately welcomed and plans for his adventures began.
An email was put out to the chapter members and a ride organized for the very next day. We decided we would take Wolvie on a DAM ride. This is something our chapter does two or three times a year. We begin at Strom Thurmond Dam at Clarks Hill Lake and then venture on to other dams in the area. We have three that control the water flow down the Savannah River and provide large lakes for recreation and generate electricity for the surrounding areas. (picture titled Strom Thurmond Dam)
From Strom Thurmond we rode for about 50 miles and came to the Ranger Station/Welcome center at Richard B. Russell Dam.

Wolvie says goodbye to Alabama

This is the last report-- Wolvie is on the way to Atlanta Hope this is what you wanted. We had a great time doing this and actually took Wolvie more place but no pictures.


Wolvie went to the Space and Rocket Center before leaving Huntsville, Al today. With the weather at 74 degrees Wolvie did not want to leave. But had pictures made with the Saturn 5 "coming out his head", standing in front of the Shuttle, and the Space and Rocket sign. Was a nice day to see where lots of space "stuff" is on exhibit and learn more about how important Huntsville is to the Space Age.

We hope to see Wolvie at the Cycle World International Motorcycle Show in Atlanta Jan 18-20.

Steel Magnolias Meeting

Wolvie also got to be photographed with several of the Steel Magnolias after their meeting. Guess who is the cutest.

Steel Magnolias Meeting

Wolvie was here in the warm south long enough to go to a Steel Magnolias meeting. Sitting on the table wondering "what am I doing here". Good thing Wolvie can not talk!!!!!

Adventures with Huntsville PD

“OH! Too much thinking!!!!”

With that last effort, Wolvie decided ID was not his forte.

Adventures with Huntsville PD

“Uh, they all look alike!”

Adventures with Huntsville PD

Checking the jury list with Matt. “Hey Matt! Do they put wolverines on the jury? Is my name on there? Huh? Huh?”

“Oh, this is boring. Can I do fingerprints?”

“Look at all those pretty lines! What nice shapes they make”

Adventures with Huntsville PD

Another evening, Wolvie went to the Huntsville Police Department where he was an honorary I.D. Technician. What is an I.D. Technician? Well, it’s someone who examines fingerprints. For 8 long hours, during the wee hours of the morning (yes, Wolvie was out and about on the graveyard shift – when all the bad guys come out) looking at print, after print, after print. Here are a few shots of his night:

Adventures with Huntsville PD

Sharing secrets with his new best friend


Wolvie met and played with several other bunnies, but they were camera shy. Slidell was the only one willing to have his picture taken.

Adventures with Huntsville PD

Wolvie had a great time in Huntsville. Wolvie learned that in north Alabama, it really is rocket science!

He had a tour around the city upon his arrival. He visited Olde Town Twickenham district as well as our historic downtown. He was able to see homes and gardens suitable for Southern Living magazine. Wolvie got a new appreciation for Alabama. It’s not quite the back-woods redneck rural area that folks make it out to be.

Wolvie spent one day broadening his horizons. He went to the local rabbit rescue habitat where he met many homeless and rescued bunnies. He learned how to control his appetite and make friends with those who would have previously been his dinner.

Here are a couple of pictures of Wolvie with his new friends Ruth and Slidell:

Playing Patty-Cake with Slidell

Wolvies Christmas adventures in Alabama

Wolvie arrived in the great state of Alabama just in time for Christmas. We all went to a family gathering and had a great time. As you can see Wolvie made the rounds --found him in a stocking, on the mantel and sitting on top of a Nutcracker.

Update from Alabama

Wolvie has been having so much fun and does not want to leave the warm (65) weather yet. I had planned on taking Wolvie to the Space and Rocket Center in the morning and mailing to Atlanta after that. The Cycle World International Motorcycle Show is Jan 18-20 and Wolvie needs to be there. Several of the Steel Magnolias are going over to help the Atlanta group work at that show so we should see Wolvie again.

Pictures to follow soon.
