Monday Night in Idaho

Hello, friends far and near.....oh, well, I guess just far. No one here I know...except the dog next door. I did meet him. He's the first dog I've met that's bigger than I am!! He's a handsome German Shepherd who's fifteen, but he got some lively when I got out of the truck. His mom said she hasn't seen him move that fast in years! I guess I've still got it!!



So, here we are at the Blue Anchor Campground....silly name for it since it's not near any water at all. It's small, but very nice and the owners are very friendly. Daddy set the camper up and then we all went into town for dinner......not much to choose from, but Mom and Daddy found a place, and I ate in the back of the truck where I usually do. I don't mind......except I can't use my baby browns on anyone to get a tidbit or two of people food.



Back to yesterday.....all of Uncle Charlie's family was gone by one in the afternoon, so things got very quiet. All the men took naps and Mommy and I did some picking up and laundry. Then we, too, took a short siesta.....we didn't snore, though......I'm not complainin'....I'm just sayin'.......



Supper was leftovers and I even got some. I'm getting soooooo good at quietly begging......and I just want a taste.....just a wee taste...... We all went to bed early, and were up at 5.....Mommy and Daddy had coffee, breakfast, and then got everything ready to go. I helped as much as I could, but I got really concerned that they might leave me there so I just got up in the truck and stayed there. I've known for a day or so that something different was going to happen.......all my toys got picked up and put in the camper, all the clothes got washed and put away, some new food got put in the frig....you know, all the tell-tale signs that a move is on the horizon. So....I just prepare myself by not letting Daddy out of my sight, and as soon as the truck door is open, I'm in it! There will be no leaving ME behind!! No siree. I'm goin'! I LOVE to ride!! Today, actually, I rode on my mama's lap.....not terribly comfortable, but we made do. I like to have my nose next to the air conditioner......sometimes I sneeze all over her knees....oh, there's got to be a song in that somewhere.......You sit on my lap, while you take a nap, put your nose to the breeze and sneeze on my knees...you're the dog of my heart, hope we never part, my little dog Juni has her own little tuney.... I know, don't give up my day job. Hey, this IS my day job!!



Ok, so we left Darrington about seven and drove here, to Wallace, Idaho, just before we cross over into Montana. We'll be at Uncle Gale's and Auntie Sue's tomorrow afternoon....early. I can't wait to see them again! I can take up on my lawn art project and try to finish it before we leave. So much to do and so little time. I'll show you how we went in the pictures, OK? It's easier that way.



OK, tomorrow will only be a written blog....oh, no maybe not. I think we can use Uncle Gale's computer and it's pretty fast. So, talk to you all then. I miss you and love you all. Juni

  1. Glad to hear you guys made it as far as Wallace. Hope you had time to do a little exlporing--it's an interesting town. We drove 680 miles today, half on 2-lane roads and including a 15-minute stop for a nasty rain/wind/hail/lightening storm to pelt us. Frightening. We're in Dubois, WY tonight and heading to Grand Teton NP and Jackson Hole in the morning.
    Have a great drive.
