Wow, what a weekend I had! First I got into the car and it was soooo hot out and I sat on mom's lap. There were so many things in the car, there wasn't even space on the back seat for me! And then we went on a long long car ride. I got out once at a store, and Vanessa held my leash while Terence and Mom went inside.

Then more long car ride! It was kind of windy but I didn't get sick.

Finally, They let me out. And WOW, what a place it was! It was all trees and BIG HORSES and LOTS OF DOGS and meadows and shade and hot sun and dirt and streams and chipmunks and rabbits and PEOPLE everywhere... WOW! I've never been anywhere like it. There were so many people! It was some kind of gathering They went to, with horses. Sometimes My People went on horses, or to other places and I stayed with all the other people. They all knew my name and they fed me things My People never let me have! A lot of them were very little, like almost my size! They liked to make me run with my leash and pick me up, which was kind of disturbing but I knew just to be a good dog with them. Small people like me a lot.

Sometimes, I got to run in the meadows with no leash!

There were so many dogs that I met! Leelo took my Chipmunk. She ran and ran and ran and ran with it, in circles. I liked her. She made it squeak, and then she'd drop it, startled! Then she'd pick it up again! She shared it with many other dogs, like Riley and Corky and Meeko and Toby. I haven't seen my Chipmunk since. But I don't mind. I have my Duck. And Manta Ray. And Squirrel. And Sweet Potato Rope. And Big-Headed Cat. (Mom said Leelo's owner said she'd buy me a new toy.) There were so many dogs to be friends with! They were everywhere! It was so fun.

I had a new home. It was small and My People just slept on the floor of it! And I slept on them! I could smell right through it. It was just like being under a sheet.

And then one morning, there was a lot of fussing around the car and with all our stuff, and then -- the new home was gone! I sniffed the grass where it had been, but I couldn't pick up any trail. So strange!

Then we had another loooong car ride. I slept the whole way this time. I was exhausted! WOW. What an adventure!

And then we were at my OLD home! It's still here! I smelled it when we came around a corner and I sat up in my mom's lap when I knew we were getting home!

And I think I should go back to sleep. I'm exhausted!
