My new wagon

Mom found this really cool folding wagon at Bass Pro Shops on her way home from Milwaukee. There wasn't room in the car so she called them and ordered one. It is for the big rally in PA. I like it. It's very comfy and Mom says I can ride in it. I didn't tell her, but I can also sleep in it because it's very big. It will even hold my Scotty (dog) friends Emma and Amy too.

Another new cousin!

My new cousin Jasper. He's pretty cute but he's pretty scary too. He keeps trying to attack me. Mom says he'll get used to me soon. I hope so. He's almost as big as I am and he's very fast.

Fall is here

It has been cold and raining and the leaves are changing. Mom and I walked out on the bogwalk. It's very pretty right now with all the colored leaves in the water and on the walkway. There's a lot of Michigan Holly with pretty red berries too. And, I'm in my favorite clothing - Fido Fleece. Warm and snuggy and what more could a girl want?

SURVIVOR is on again

It's Mom and my second favorite show. Our favorite show is Amazing Race and that starts TOMORROW. YAY. You can bet I'm on Mom's lap watching BOTH of them. Here I am watching Survivor on Thursday.

Oliver and the new door

Well, Mom and I knew it would happen. Oliver and stray cat "Buddy", facing off at the new door. Mom feeds Buddy just outside the door and now Oliver stares at him and watches him eat. And when he's finished eating, Buddy comes and stares at Oliver.

I got a new door!

Mom bought me a new door! YAY. I had to jump really really high to see out the windows in our old door, but now I don't have to jump at all! The new door has windows that are all the way down by the floor. I will really like this new door.

Mom said she'll really like the new door too, because instead of barking when I "think" someone is here, I can run and look outside and see if anyone's here before I bark! Not that I bark a lot. Just sometimes. When I think someone is here...

Oliver likes the new door too. Now he can watch for our stray cat Buddy, who Mom has been feeding for the past year. Oliver doesn't like Buddy and Buddy doesn't like Oliver. He likes to come and sit outside the windows and watch Oliver because he knows Oliver can't get outside. Mom says he's tormenting Oliver. Just like the squirrels at Tahquamenon Falls Campground tormented me. I don't like squirrels. They're sassy-mouths.

We still have to finish the trim on the new door but its a job well done. We'd hoped to work on our Scotty this weekend, but that's probably not gonna happen.

I crossed the Mighty Mac

And went camping. FOUR days in the UP (that's Upper Peninsula for you folks who don't live in Michigan). We camped at the River Mouth Campground of the Tahquamenon Falls State Park. Aunt Dawn and Amy and Emma camped next to us. We saved a spot by Aunt Dawn for Uncle Eric and Aunt Nicole but they thought we were at the Lower Falls Campground and they camped there instead.

I got to eat a Yooper double-cheeseburger from McDonalds. And hey, they can make them just as good as the trolls (that's anyone in the lower peninsula, i.e. under the bridge) can! That gave me enough stamina for the hike up to the Upper Falls.

The trip wasn't all work though. Emma, Amy and I had a little party of our own. Boy were Mom and Aunt Dawn surprised! ;-)
