Congratulations Hamilton!
The random number generator – built in a hipster Seattle garage – has spoken: “Dude,” it said. “Chet’s friend of the month for September – and way late by the way – is Hamilton.”
Congrats to Hamilton. He’ll be over in the special place on the right for the whole month and his human companion will receive a signed and paw-printed copy of PAW AND ORDER (as soon as they send a mailing address to spence.quinn@gmail.com). In October, this could be you! Just upload a photo to the friends gallery, as Maximilliano (on his birthday) did today. Our Seattle division takes over from there.

Good morning all. We are early today because Barb is leaving shortly for a work day. Labor Day Break is over. And we lucked out with better weather than expected.
Congrats to Hamilton, FOM. That is quite a magnificent beard that he has going.

Good morning, everyone. Just a check-in before heading for the library. Loving the Alaska fotos! Have a trouble-free Tuesday.

Congratulations Hamilton. (Why are the pictures so large lately?)
Good morning all.

Greetings!
Congratulations , Hamilton!
Ozzie you had a good reign over there to the right!
Yes, why are the pictures so big?
Loving the Alaska pictures. Please, Plunderers, may we have some more?
RIO! Mick and Jodi, the people, not the puppies ROCK!
9:10 am on September 2nd, 2014
Good morning! The facebook FOM is a Corgi named Sidney!
9:12 am on September 2nd, 2014
Hmmmm….it seems that Hamilton resembles Mick. (See last night’s photos). : )
You know I love you, Mick!
9:36 am on September 2nd, 2014
Sending healing prayers and good thoughts to ML’s mom.
It was so nice to hear from BooBear. We here hold you and your mom in our hearts. I am glad you are there to keep the quilt tucked around your mom.
9:56 am on September 2nd, 2014
We are also sending good vibes to ML’s mom, and to ML. That girl is building up good karma, for sure.
Love ‘ya ML!
10:54 am on September 2nd, 2014
So long Ozzie and welcome to Hamilton with his happy face!
Thanks for the pictures of Mick and Jodi. I love them and their “apple pie”.
Tyb: You are up top!
11:06 am on September 2nd, 2014
Hey everyone.
We won’t even be grumpy about not being FOM since that laughing Corgi is on fb
And we have to say that when we saw Hamilton’s face, it did remind us of Mick. Too funny.
12:05 pm on September 2nd, 2014
ALaska photos? New FOM? Cripes, spend one day trying to get a bunch of last-minute stuff done and I miss out on everything! Back after reviewing yesterday.
Congratulations to Hamilton, greetings, good day and safe travels to everyone.
12:32 pm on September 2nd, 2014
I’m laughing. The picture is smaller now.
Sidney certainly looks happy.
12:47 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Hamilton!…Bah hum bug!….grunt!
12:50 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Congratulations Hamilton! You are a distinguished looking gentleman.
The smiling Corgi is cute.
Message for Rio:
The Rockies won their second game of the day yesterday.
1:34 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Hey, AK group, good morning, sunshines! Hope y’all have something fun with lots of fotos planned for today. The rest of the world is awaiting 🙂
1:48 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Yesterday!….snort!…My friend loves me so very much she wanted to photograph me all the time….snorkel!….Here is one where she said, “Sit still and stay!STAY!”…chuffle!
1:50 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Rio, you are so brave to follow your friend’s directions. We always knew you and Chet had things in common (which we might discuss at a later time).
1:52 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Beau!….I’m pretty sure I smelt Beau at this spot…sniff!sniff!….I’m sure he was here before me…grunt!
1:55 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Tourists!…Here is one of Nana and Chobbit….snorkel!….I’m not sure what they were doing but they were very intent upon it….wheeze!…Maybe they were photographing rocks or gravel….heh!heh!
1:57 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Fence!….My friend was looking in the other direction and got a shot of a fence and some mountain range….snort!…CHobbit is not here to let me know what the name of that mountain peak is callled….sniff!
1:59 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Chugat!….Maybe this is what we were looking at!…snort!
2:01 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Nana!….She finally lifted her finger off the lens and came up with a well focused shot!….snorkel!
2:04 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Meanwhile!….Maskers and I found a picnic table…gruffle!….Get off damned Kat!…grunt!
2:06 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Grub!….Well, where’s the picnic grub at anyways?…sniff!snort!grump!….We are waiting!!!
2:08 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Nana!….Still no food but Nana made a friend….sniff!….This is Merril, she traveled all the way in a car from Houston, TX….wheeze!….She even saw Denali – whatever that is….snort!
2:11 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Hike!…Somewhere along the trail Maskers and I detoured and were left for dead in the deep forest….wheeze!….There was no way OUT!OUT!OUT!…gasp!
2:21 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Sadie!…While we were lost and terrified…sneeze!….Sadie was home in her warm soft bed….grump!…This is all she ever does. Sleep and eat….Eat and sleep!…gruffle!….What a life.
2:23 pm on September 2nd, 2014
2:26 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Yesterday!….snort!….I have no more time to post we are getting ready to head out and seek new adventures….chuffle!….I’m told we will be meeting up with Rebecca today, sans Thieves, I hope….grump!
2:28 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Rio’s friend takes excellent photos, darn it. No way to pick on her like MPM and others were teased about their photography skills.
When will Nana or Hobbit post a picture of Friend?
2:30 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Love the foto of Nana and friend.
2:33 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Love the foto of Nana and friend. Sadie looks happy. How is Quill?
2:50 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Rebecca? AJ too? We want fotos!
3:24 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Congratulations, Hamilton.
Great photos, Rio. Thank you so much. We want more, more, more.
4:24 pm on September 2nd, 2014
It looks like Alaska is truly the place to be…even if there isn’t any food on the picnic table.
And we loved the sign of Rio by the sign. Unstable, and bluffing. Yup, enough said. tee hee
4:35 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Sans us? We hate it when that happens, but someone has to stick around and supervise the Giant. Can he be left to his own devices? No. He isn’t responsible like us.
4:53 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Rio–I am loving all the pictures, but I do wonder where those (look like concrete) stairs lead…and did you make your way out of the deep forest?
5:12 pm on September 2nd, 2014
RIO! I am really loving your pictures. You and Masquers are having some great adventures. How Did you get out of that forest? When you visit Snowhook take lots and lots of pictures. Please send some of Mama Luna, my VBFF, Belle Starr,
Rose, the puppy, not me, and those handsome thieves.
5:20 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Whoa, yesterday was Dawson’s birthday? Hope it was her 21st so I can buy her her first legal drink . Then I’ll beat her at a game of cards.
6:30 pm on September 2nd, 2014
At Lake Hood this morning, windy day. Lots of float planes. Family photo:
6:50 pm on September 2nd, 2014
AK herd, here was the March Plunderfest on Seward Inlet:

Rio, boy do you get around!
7:26 pm on September 2nd, 2014
One of our Favorite fotos just came up under Chet’s Friends. 6 of the River Bear Newsf, lying around the living room 🙂
7:29 pm on September 2nd, 2014
While both PlunderFests look like fun, all in all we would rather be on the current one, sitting in the sun, surrounded by flowers. Not freezing our tushies off.
7:30 pm on September 2nd, 2014
I love the picture of the rustic fence, the fall grasses changing color and the mountain in the background.
And the one with 2 friends sitting on a bench overlooking the water.
The quality of pictures is above the normal Plunderer ability.
7:38 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Kat! I have a question for you. How did your lovely redhaiired self wind up in with images of our favorite musher, AJ?
7:39 pm on September 2nd, 2014
The foto of Sadie looking at the kamera with a combined look of grumpiness and resignation should be entitled, “Rio. Again.” heh
Nana and Rio’s friend took off with Rebecca at lunch and haven’t been heard from since. They might be lost or they might be adventuring…
7:44 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Love all the pictures. What fun!
7:45 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Wose?
8:12 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Welcome, Hamilton. WE think the DDD (and maybe Mick the person, not the dog) might be jealous of your magnificent beard 🙂
8:26 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Kat: I googled images of Justin Savidis, and your picture is in there.
8:33 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Kat: that is a beautiful close-up of you. If you click on the picture it links back to Chet’s blog. Westminster was the topic of the day. Are you sure you weren’t on AJ’s team?
8:51 pm on September 2nd, 2014

I don’t know if this will work…..
8:52 pm on September 2nd, 2014
It doesn’t….never mind.
I think it is time for bed.
Hey, Liz!
Sleep tight, everyone!
Summer Plunderers, keep those pictures coming!
8:53 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Wose! That is my avatar picture! Isn’t it great?
The truth is that The Giant pursued me and my talents for his team. The BDHW handled the negotiations. My demands are many, as you can well imagine. AJ was willing to carry a bed for me, and to build me a warm fire whenever we stop. The deal breaker was the size of my bed. It is a Queen-size. Naturally.
8:55 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Winding down for the night. Not sure what Wose is talking about, but I am sure it makes perfect sense. Must be that we need sleep.
Be back tomorrow.
We loved all the photos today. Glad you guys are having a great time.
9:15 pm on September 2nd, 2014
arrrrrrooooooo, the summer plunderfest makes me want to howl, and I am not even a canine. Love, love, love the pictures, need more, more, more. Also more narative. Details dammit!
Mother was not feeling up to snuff this a.m. so the doc held her over for another day. Now I have to figure out how to get her out tomorrow amongst a 9:30 meeting at church, 11:00 Dr. app’t, and 1:00 therapist app’t. I think I need a clone.
Howlers and Bluekat, love ya right back! <3
9:33 pm on September 2nd, 2014
ML, we know you will figure out the logistics of your travel-thon tomorrow. Just glad to hear from you before bedtime.
Once mom tried wearing tight jeans, but she couldn’t pull them off 🙂
On that note we’ll go nighty night.
9:33 pm on September 2nd, 2014
PIZZA!!!….snort!snort!…We are all going out on the town with Rebecca and having the Best Damn Pizza in Anchorage and I am told there will be plenty of beer flowing and lots of stories true and false…heh!heh!….Back later to post some of the days photos – maybe!…sniff!….Don’t wait up!….burp!
11:18 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Howlers, this is for you. Pizza and wine on tap tonight. We here are told that it is for Nana, Friend and our Lady. How much can they eat? Burp!
11:19 pm on September 2nd, 2014

11:26 pm on September 2nd, 2014
We volunteer to come take care of leftovers.
Really, its not a problem.
11:54 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Don’t tell Rio that the Giants were losing 6 to nuthin and are now winning 12 – 7.
11:54 pm on September 2nd, 2014
Wow that is a thick pizza. It looks like a lake of cheese. Great pictures from the northland.
I was working at the quilt store today and I will be doing it again tomorrow so it is hard to keep up with the blog. Luckily, with Rio and his friend far away from a computer most of the day,there is not much to read today…
Time for me to go to bed. Nighty noodle youse guys. And good morning to Liz.
12:39 am on September 3rd, 2014
Staffie!…The pizza was not “thick” at all, the crust was perfect and the toppings amazing, the sauce and cheese proportions were just right and in all the right places….snorkel!…Good conversation and good friends all around…heh!heh!….What a great night! Now we are home and expecting even more good times before bed-time…chuffle!
7:11 pm on September 21st, 2014
