I figured out the doggy door over at my new grandma's house last weekend, but my real goal, my sisters doggy retreat, had escaped my abilities. Well today I was finally tall enough to master the doggy door to my big sisters playhouse, the air conditioned kennel. Read More »

7/17/2008 Thursday Up at 7:00 AM 79 degrees out and very muggy. By 9:00 AM I am leaving the camp ground. The dogs have been fed and out on the stakeout. The camper is travel ready and I have dumped the gray and black water. By 11:20 AM I have stopped at rest area on Route 23 in Michigan and given the dogs a pee break. Another long and boring day. Stopped three more times to get gas. When I stopped the third time at a gas station in Seney, MI to top off the tank before going into camp, the credit card company had to get into the act one more time. The poor store owner had to call the credit card company because of their "Fraud Alert" stuff. It took a while to get a person on the line and then more time while he tried to give them all the information they wanted. Then I had to get on the line and give them pretty much the same information plus some before they would give the merchant an authorization number for the purchase. Meanwhile the poor guy had at least 10 other... Read More »
7/16/2008 Wednesday 8:00 AM Odometer 107460 and a full tank of gas. The trip the trip to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan begins. The day was long and boring. I have been over these roads to many times. Stopped three times for gas. Because of credit card limits and high price of gas each time I had to use the credit card twice just to get a full tank of gas. By the time I reached the camp ground at 7:15 PM I had received a phone call from the credit card company alerting me to possible credit card fraud. By 11:30 PM it's lights out time. The dogs have been out on the chain gang for potty break and water. They have been fed and have had supervised free time in the camper. The two puppies (Pic and Pie) are now asleep in crates and the other three (Coffee, Pixie, and Missy) are asleep on my bed. They are all Angels when they are asleep. It is when they are awake that I have Nightmares.... Read More »
