We are at the Best Western in Kingman AZ.
What a start we had this morning. First of all I HATE continental breakfast! I am not a muffin and cream cheese sort of dog. Lacey will of course eat anything!
Then we went out....OMD it was -2C. Do you know what it is like to have to look macho for all the girl dogs at the motel on a morning like that?? Mature dogs worry about the shrink factor too, you know! Anyway, I think I pulled off the macho look with my usual withit-ness. And then we hit the road.
Well it did start to warm up a bit after a while...but then the wind picked up.
Mom insisted we stop at a wild-life refuge area so we could have a decent walk. Sometimes I think she is clueless! She wouldn't listen to DOD ...no, she dragged us off and left him at the car (one of their little tiffs) but when we heard a grunting sort of noise in the bushes let me tell you she ran like hell! DOD was on his way ...bringing the car around to rescue us and we jumped in before Me and Lacey became some animals brunch! I ask you..do I need this?
So by now the wind was really howling. Wind warnings posted all over the highway. Trucks not allowed to travel at Hoover Dam.
We pulled into the Welcome Centre at Boulder City all ready for a walk in the wind when a truck pulled up with TWO pitbulls in the back....AND ...the owner let them out of the truck without a leash! Mom freaked and had to race again to save us...we hadn't even peed!
Anyway, as I mentioned we are in Kingman AZ. The wind is still howling. I have a bit of an upset stomach from all the excitement. Mom is drinking white wine and DOD is reading his Kindle. Things are back to normal.
Tomorrow...yes oh yes...we should be at home in Tubac!
