we are starting to get more excited about the trip now. we are still packing things up; hoping not to forget anything, but you know how that goes, there will be something left behind, somewhere. we are taking our two dogs with us on the great american road trip. they are very well-behaved and loki, our jack russell/shih-tzu mixed breed puppy, really loves to go for a drive whenever he can. when we go somewhere, he is always ready. so, i thought that i'd introduce you all to him. (i guess he isn't really a puppy because he is almost 6 years old now.) loki even just likes to go out to the trailer while we are packing. i guess he thinks he is going somewhere even if it is out in the yard to get into the trailer. by the way, he has been eyeing our bed an awful lot, but i keep telling him that his bed will be brought along and he'll have to sleep in it on the floor. i hope the trailer won't seem too small for a month-long trip; nancy is a bit skeptical, but i think we'll be okay. until next time, enjoy, and i'll get back to our trip preparations...
