I just had to share my road trip from Maryland to Mississippi with my family for their Family Reunion. It was such an adventure… and so so hot in Mound Bayou, MS. My mom booked us a room at the Hampton Inn in Cleveland, MS and unfortunately, there were no pets allowed in the hotel. Do you think that stopped my mom from taking me in there….HECK NO! Although I do not like being put in my little doggie bag, it was kind of fun being snuck through the side door up to our room. Getting up early in the morning driving up the road so no one saw me having to do my business. The beds are soooo comfy at the Hampton Inn hotels too. It was hard not to bark when I heard people in the hall but I learned quickly not too because my sister would put me in the pop up kennel on the other side of the bed. I do not like kennels so it was pretty easy not to bark when the service staff was in the halls.

We had a great Fish Fry at my mom’s uncle’s house. All open land where you can run and explore without a leash! Mom was a bit skeptical about letting me roam alone but it was nice to be able to walk around at my leisure, no leash and sniff all my cousins and let the kids pet me and oohhh and ahhh how cute I am. I mostly stayed under mom and my sister though. There were 3 Yorkies at the Family Reunion, one of them constantly trying to hump me and I had to put his tiny butt in check! He got the message after a while and went on his merry way!

Well, I just wanted to share my first vacation of the year – looking forward to our annual trip to Chicago. Mom said this time she’s taking me with her. Can’t wait to see my cousin Gia in Steger, and my cat cousin China who is really cool and doesn’t flip out when I come hang at her house. Now my cat cousin Sha’will is a different story. The last time Mom and I visited her brother she stayed on top of the cabinets in the kitchen screaming at the top of her lungs until I departed. Pretty Funny – ha ha ha.

Have a great summer and you will be seeing more adventures of Serge!
