On the road again...

Do not adjust your computers... Roxanne's blog has been taken over by Hamlet and Mouse who will report on parts of our "2006 Home for the Holidays Tour" - a Diesel-Harrison-Haeri Production.

AnimalLog December 7, 2006 - It sure is a long way to this dog park we are going to. Several times we have stopped and I got out but there wasn't a dog park in site!
Mouse says we aren't going to a dog park but we are going to see our girls and our boys and Baby and Roya and Cleo. Who are they and why does it take so long to get there? We are stopping at a hotel tonight. I know what those are - we stayed at those when we went to Yellowstone. Mouse got her own bed that time. This time I want my own bed! -- Hamlet

The dog thinks that every time he gets in the car he is going to a dog park. He is so spoiled. He is also a back seat hog! For the first few hours I tried to stay in my space and lay in my little bed. Hey, I only weigh about 8 pounds so I don't take up much room but he kept invading my space, laying on my bed and laying on me! I have figured out that if I lay right in the middle of the back seat he won't lay on me because Mom and Dad can see him and he will get in trouble. So I just stretch out and he has to lay on one side or the other! Ha - I showed him. Hey we are at the hotel! -- Mouse

There is a dog outside that wants to play with me. I wish he would go away. He barks alot and makes me bark and then I get yelled at. -- Hamlet

There is a dog outside our hotel room who won't shut up and he keeps scratching at our door. I hope he stops soon. I need my rest. -- Mouse

AnimalLog December 8, 2006 - Hey it's really early but I think that dog finally went home. Now I can get some sleep! Hey, what's that noise? Why is mom getting up? Why is the shower running? Oh now - that means I have to get up soon. Whhhyyyy? -- Hamlet

We are back in the car and everything is brown and flat. Yesterday we went through one of my favorite spots on the trip -- the beautiful canyons in Arizona between Nevada and Utah. Every time we drive through there I rush from window to window trying to drink it all in. It's just beautiful. Last night we saw hundreds of lighted Christmas trees in the Vail, Co area - they were everywhere and so big! There were white lights and multi-colored lights and then there were some that started out on top with golden lights and as they went down to the base of the tree there were red lights on the end. We all enjoyed that part of the ride. -- Mouse

My ears popped alot yesterday but today they are fine. I went for a long walk and chased a tumbleweed and now I am ready for a nap. Mommy says we will be there soon. I hope so. I like car rides but I'm ready to get out of the car for awhile! -- Hamlet

We have arrived... uh oh. I remember this place - it's where the scary boy lives. I will try and be brave. He scared me when I was only a few months old and I have never forgotten him. Here we go... oh no, HE is getting me and my carrier out of the car to go inside. I can do this... be brave, be brave... -- Mouse.
