Blizzard of 2011

The couch usually makes trips to different locations and events, but this time things were different. This time, the blog post came to the COUCH, in the form of 3 feet of snow! That's right, the couch got a picture with Blizzila...aka Snowpocolyps, Snowtorious B.I.G., Tsnownami, Snowprah, or whatever name you will remember it by. This was an epic one so I could not miss the opportunity to get the couch out there.

This picture was taken at Bk Boat n Sleds' shop in Lakemoor, IL. As you can see in the background, the snow is about 3-4 feet deep. The couch is sitting on about 18 inches of snow. This picture happened so quickly that the couch didn't even know what was happening. It was all warm and sheltered in the shop and the next minute it was tossed out into the Blizzard of 2011.

New Year, New Couch, New Memories

Introducing the 2011 Couch !!

They say "history repeats it's self" and that is true in regards to Doug's Couch. Just like the original DC, this couch came to me. After the retirement of the Couch was announced, I started to get emails and comments about people missing the couch. Then I started missing having a couch around myself. I started looking on craigslist and I put a few feelers out there for a couch that could handle the life of Doug's Couch. There was no couch that really fit the bill.
Then Patricia spoke up.

Patricia knew of a couch that was sitting alone in a house in Fox Lake. A couch that had been left to fend for it's self. A couch that was once a part of someones everyday life, but now was in solitude. It was time for that to change. THIS was the couch that was destined to meet more people than it has in it's entire life. THIS was the couch that was going to be famous one day. THIS is the couch that was tired of sitting alone in a cold house.

This is Doug's Couch!

P.S. I have owned the couch for less than 4 hours and it has been dropped from 6 feet in the air, a leg broke off, it has been stepped on, and it ripped a little. I have also pulled a matchbox car, a broken PallMall and a McDonald's toy out of it's undercarriage. This is gonna be a good year.

"Barking for Boobs" and a Couch for Cleavage

This post is a long time over due... The couch was out at the 2nd annual Bark for a Cure Dog Walk. I was invited out by Michelle of the Pink Angels. The event was a great success! They had a ton of people and dogs come out for the 5k walk. The couch played a part of the event too. For a small donation, you could get your picture taken on the couch. It didn't take long for the couch to go to the dogs again. The last time I had an event with Camp Bow Wow, we had about 4 dogs on the couch... this event took the record with 9 dogs on the couch at once!


This event was a GREAT time!
