Hi Pals. We're back!!! Now all I have to do is persuade my secretary to transcibe my trip notes and download the gazillion photos she took of our awesome, pawsome 14-day road trip. She promised. She promised. But right now she is recovering from having a 25-pound wire fox terrier on her lap for hundreds of miles at a time (could that be me???) to keep me from panting my way through Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida.
New Year's Day is the day I was born seven years ago in Joplin, Missouri. So the trip back to my home state on my Mom's lap was a nice kind of antidote for my trip out from a puppy mill to a pet store in a crate marked Live Animal. Yep!!!
More soon -- with pictures. She promised. But in the meantime, all my heartfelt wirey wishes for peace and love throughout the world in 2009 and and warm caring homes for every dog on the planet.
