This is Gus my pig statue. Those who know me know I love pigs!
I even had a pot bellied pig...his name was Gus. Which is where this one
got his name. In 1999, we went to my Aunt Jane and Uncle Joe's house, who live in Texas for my Granny's memorial service. I fell in love with him. I tried to hide him in my suite case
but I was caught. Years later.........
This past summer while on vacation we stopped in to visit them. I asked them if they still had the pig. I had not seen him sitting around. They had him sitting by their wall unit. I couldn't believe 9 years later they still had him. They said I could have him. I was so excited. They said if I brought him up they were going to give him to me. Don and Joe packed him up for the ride home. He now sits on my fireplace. He makes me smile everytime I look at him and how sweet they were to give him to me. They got him back in 1988. They dated the bottom of him. So I dated him too 2008. He is twenty years old.
Isn't he the cutest?
