Falling in Love with Fall

You know this is my first fall, right? First ever? And I l love it. I really love it! I cannot get over how cool it is to watch all those leaves just ker-plunk...fall out of the trees! I love to chase them. So does Pluto.

I have gone on a lot of walks out in the woods. I try to eat the berries and sticks when I am not chasing leaves.

I'm kind of hard to see, since I blend right in to the colorful woods.

I love the lake in the fall too. I mean, just look at the view out there!

Hey, no fair! Notice I have my leash on in this picture. That's because we are at the park. I promised I would not wander far (no further than the next town anyway) but mom was not buying it. Rats.

Speaking of mom, she grabbed me and held me onto me for this one. I looked every direction but at the camera. I even tried barking at an imaginary squirrel in the trees. Finally, Penelope got behind Chena, who had the camera, and made the silliest faces, I could not help but pay attention.

I definitely earned that big bone and the catnip mice she paid me off with later. (I know, I know, the catnip mouse was for the cat....I was just seeing if you were paying any attention)

Hotel Living!

Yeah, that's right. I am the only dog I know with room service.

I got to go to Anchorage and stay in a hotel! I was not too sure what I thought of it at first. Had to go and check everything out.

Lots of stuff going on out on the street. People thinking they could walk right by me on the sidewalk, and outrageous things like that without me barking at them. Not gonna happen.

Even in the room, I was watching my territory. The parking lot is safe with me on duty!

I was a bit worried about my everyday comforts. But turns out, my food and food dish came along. Phew.

I liked rolling around on the bed, but Mom didn't really want me to eat the bedspread. Spoilsport.

I was starting to get bored, but then they turned on Clifford. I love me some big red dog. If I was barking at him it was only in a friendly me-d0g-you-d0g-too kind of way. If I woke up other people in the hotel, well it was time for them to get up and watch cartoons anyway.

One of my favorite things was trying to wake up Penelope in the morning.

I said tried!

Oh well, if you can't beat them, join them I always say.

Can you guys run down to breakfast and bring us back some bacon?!?

Just Sitting On The Couch

I'm just sitting on the couch, minding my own business. Listening to everyone yipping and yelping about some speech on tv. I was laying over there for awhile, but they said I was being distracting. All I did was bite a few toes that were hanging down from the recliner, try to knock over a lamp, zoom under the mother-in-law visiting from Washington's legs, and try to eat a wooden magazine rack. Thats it.



So anyway, I guess this speech is a big deal. Personally I really don't care about politics. Everyone has their own idea about who is right and who is wrong and I refuse to give my opinion or get involved.
