Road Trip

Well the dogs and I took a road trip this weekend. We went to visit my sis who lives near Niagara Falls. It is a 2 1/2 hr drive but it went by quickly.
I had my smelly dog Pippin the border collie in the back of the SUV while Timmy, FiFi(toy poodle) and Buster Peebody(terripoo) sat in the back seat. For the first time ever Timmy did not get car sick!

We all had a nice visit. I think Buster Peebody had the best time though. His buddy Toto(cairn terrier) played with him the whole time we were there. They play fought, ran and rolled in something together that was quite stinky. Fifi just followed me around whining as always and Timmy found a sun beam to sleep in.
Pippin is an outdoor dog so he stayed in the kennel. He can't be trusted around children or men so he has to be contained when we are visiting but we did take a few runs around the barn area.

My sis has a great place with lots of land, a riding arena and a really nice barn. My nephew has all the silkie chickens I use to own so it was nice seeing them. This will be the first year in many I won't be hatching out chicks so hopefully the silkies will produce some so I can get my chick fix.

So we all made it home safe and sound and quite tired. The pack is still lolling around this morning. What a tough life!!
