SH_T Happens, Right?
So today, July 11th, we take to the air for many, countless hours.  I believe in total around 17 or so!  We got up early in anticipation and with a few last minute items to pack - like our hats! Then it is time to clean the house (how many of you had mothers who taught you to tidy up everything before a trip?).  So I vacuum which is really necessary because we are taking care of Adam's dog, London, and she has fur (ask Lauren).  So Ron lets London outside, Adam style, which is without a lease and then using his commanding voice, she will return. Okay so London runs back into the kitchen awaiting her treat, when I say "what is that smell?"  "Ron, did she roll in the grass somewhere?"  "Yes, why?"  It must have been more that grass because I was literally gagging from the odor.  Why do dogs do that?  Is it a lack of vitamins or something?  "No treat for you London, get outside"(said in a calm voice, ha ha) and so I continue my cleaning with mop in hand!  Lucky Ron gets to take the dog outside and bathe her and uses the furminator too!  Good thing I was already cleaning.  These things happen in life, just so we know that we have no control and yet we carry on, c'est la vie!

  1. London's way of protesting, she wants to go too!
    I also must clean before a trip, always nice to come home and have a clean place.
    Have a safe and fun trip don't let the bedbugs or Mosquitos bite.

  2. Probably armadillo, if things went well you should have started your adventure about an hour and a half ago. So as Barb says have a safe and fun trip. I think I would worry more about the hippos than the bed bugs and mosquitos.
