Beginning Rug Hooking. August 14, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. $25. Rug hooking
has been around for centuries. It started out for those who could not afford
machine-made carpets and would use scraps of materials that were available at
the time. It is still a time-honored craft, and we would like to invite you to come
learn how to hook a small piece to take home.
Janet Jaworski Art Opening. August 15, 5-7 p.m. Free. Join the Mattie King
Davis Art Gallery in welcoming Janet Jaworski for an art opening. Jaworksi
paints coastal scenes that include wildlife, boats and vibrant landscapes. Light
refreshments will be served during the opening.

Adventure Dog
(Continued from page 13)
Adventure Dog: BARK, BARK, BARK
Scene fades out.
I remember at the time that there were endless possibilities for future episodes
like “Adventure Dog Gets Fed” and “Adventure Dog Goes for a Ride in the
Car.” The car episode would have a sequel called “Adventure Dog Sees Another
Dog and Barks Real Loud for 116 Miles.” Last would be my favorite episode,
“Adventure Dog Goes Home to Tennessee.”
All did eventually end well. When Jami’s knee was recovered enough and
rehab was completed, Ritchie did return home to her in Tennessee where he
avoided any more tragedies. From Tennessee Jami moved to a TV station in
High Point, and Ritchie-Damit tagged along. In High Point Jami met and
married a co-worker, soon had a daughter and decided that Ritchie was maybe a
bit too hyper and undisciplined to have around a new baby. The choice between
daughter and dog was no contest. Happily, she found a wonderful home for
him on a farm where he lived to chase farm animals for fun all day. Good dog,
Ritchie. Run, Ritchie, run. Run west, Ritchie.
