The Return of Glenda

August 22, 2007. The days are winding down very fast now and it won’t be long before I have to learn how to be a city dog again. We did our morning walk today and it looks like the weather is finally going to improve again. The big machine over at our neighbours started up and they knocked down a whole bunch more trees over there. On the way back from our walk, we stopped and watched it for awhile.

Then it was time to go into town again, but this will be the last planned grocery trip. The next time we go into town we will keep going until we get to our city home. Karl drove us around town as he continues to learn to drive and then he drove us back to the cabin. When we were in town, Renee bought four grooming combs for me. She’s loves grooming me.

After returning to the cabin we got a big surprise when my good friend Glenda pulled in right behind us. I am so happy to see her again, once more before I go home. She has some friends with her too and I made sure to introduce myself to each of them.

Tom isn’t feeling well again and is lying down. He made me my dinner before he did and now Karl is making dinner for them. It sure does smell good, ground beef tacos, mmmm. Too bad I don’t get any, but I did have my own dinner and a nice big bone to gnaw on.

After dinner we walked over to Perry’s Place because I have a gift and a card to give to Teri to say sorry for jumping on her last night. Everyone was sitting around the table playing games and they were shaking up dice in a container. The sound drove me mental and first I lost my mind and jumped up on the table next to Tom. After that I moved to the other side and jumped on Teri. My nails are really long after the summer up here and I scratched her with them and tore her shirt. I was really sorry about it, especially after my time out and so we got the gift for her.

When we came back from there, Glenda and her friends came over and we went down to the beach and had a campfire. Everyone was really tired though and the campfire ended at 10:30 PM, much earlier than they usually do. It was kind of cloudy too, so we couldn’t sit and look at stars either.

It was a pretty long and rough night for Tom who was really sick all night and kept running up to the outhouse. Karl had a bit of it as well, but his ended about midnight and he was able to sleep. Not Tom though, it was almost every hour on the hour that he had to run up there. Renee and I are worried about him. He finally passed out at about 4:30 AM and managed to sleep until 9:00 AM.
