Greetings all my friends,
I'm so glad that you will be coming with me on this new journey, at least in spirit. I'm so excited!! Mommy and Daddy have been busy all day doing this and that, and I think things are just about ready to go. Daddy just finished washing the truck and has it all hitched to the camper. We have a new camper now which is really great! Daddy says it has five wheels, but I only counted four. Maybe he's hiding the other one where I can't see it. Anyhow, it's a lot bigger than the one we had last year and it has a whole, huge bed for the three of us!! Isn't that rad? Last year's was 19 feet long, and this one is 27. That means we all have a lot more room to move around and I won't be tripping into people all the time. That really got on my nerves last year, not to mention the fact that there was no real comfortable place to sit. Now I have my own couch, and Aunt Martha made me a blanket to sit on so I don't get hair all over it. It's really cool. Maybe I can get mommy to take a picture of me on it so you can see what I look like.
I had a bath today. Actually, it's a family affair, and it's such a lot of fun now. When I was just a wee young thing, I didn't much care for a bath, which is silly because I LOVE to swim! You can't keep me out of a lake, river, pond, or swimming pool!! But the shower thing in the house? Not so great. However, now that I'm two......had my birthday on Jan. 2 and didn't get a whole lot of cards from folks......I digress........I didn't mind it at all. It was kinda funny, actually. Both Mommy and Daddy take their clothes off to help me. Daddy sits on the floor in front of the shower stall so I won't run away, and Mommy gets right in the shower with me! She looks kinda funny without any clothes.....Daddy says she's Rubenesque, whatever that means. I think she just has a lot a waves in her skin, and some are bigger than others, that's all. Mommy says it just means there's more to love. Anyhow, when I'm all lathered up with that smelly white stuff they put on me, I can shake and get it all over them!! Isn't that fun? And when I'm all rinsed off, I can shake again and help get them all cleaned off. We really had a fun time, and I smell just wonderful! My hair is all shiney and fluffy, and I feel like a million dollars. I couldn't wait to get my collar on again.....I really feel naked without my collar.
So now that I'm all clean, and Mommy has the bathroom all cleaned up and dried off, and Daddy has all the groceries in the camper, we're ready to go. We'll probably take off early tomorrow morning after breakfast. They 'rents are big on eating breakfast, you know. We don't know where our first stop will be, but I'll write tomorrow night and let you know where we are,
In the meantime, stay well, and happy, and know that I am thinking about all of you and wishing you could come with us......just not in our camper. I don't think five wheels would support all of us......and I still only see four.....
Until later, yours in friendship,
Juni
