Road Trip

Hi,

Remember me, Leny (that's pronounced like the "lena" in Magdalena which is my given name), First Mate of the CPS Nargle? Well this Thanksgiving I got to accompany my parents on a road trip to CA to visit my human siblings and their families. We drove thru NM, AZ, and a lot of CA---over 1300miles. Dad was glad gas is under $2.00/gallon.


I met my nephew Rocket, a Boston terrier. He's the canine member of the family with 5 kids, my dad's son 's family. Rocket is a typical male---couldn't keep his grubby paws off these beauteous buns. I really like the human pups and guarded them from any and all adults who didn't get clearance from me to visit them. They live on a cul-de-sac with lots of human puppies!! I felt it was my job to screen any adults I didn't know and make sure they had legitimate reasons for approaching the playing children. Can't be too careful in today's world, that's what ol' Crow's-Nest Weetzie always sez....


My mom made a sweater for one of the human pups and she looks so cute in it. I hassled my dad to do a video about the trip and here we go----you'll get to see him, me, Rocket, kids, and scenery. Thanks to Glenn Frey and Jackson Brown for writing the soundtrack song, the version is from the live reunion album Hell Freezes Over.


We got to spend some time with my human sister and her whippets, Mystified and the Lummox. I was my usual dominant self, even though the Lummox is pretty bad. I guess it's just me, so lovable!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!! I certainly did!!!!!!
