Ooh, a road trip. My mom and I are taking one of those in a few weeks. I think she should let me help out with the driving, what do you think?

Ah, Asta is back.
Nice trip, wasn't it?
I'm so tempted to tell you something but my mom just gave me the look: "NO".
I'll be quiet then.

OMD, Asta...what a totally cool room with all the glass windows you got to play in!!!!! It's ginormous!! That little fuzzbrat has grown even since we were in New York!! He's gonna weigh 40lbs!!

Mumsie was droolin' at the lasagne and we were all admirin' the pawfectly set table...very fall-like and bootiful!

Aren't crunchy leaves the best? We try to get em all stuck in our fur and bring em inside so we can romp with them and be all nice and warm...sorta like havin' ur cake and eatin' it too!!

Sigh..have to go and put away groceries...a daughter's work is never done....

Barkies and SO GLAD UR HOME!!!

Looking forward to seeing more photos...

Stanley said...

Sweet FuzzButt Astaroni!

YOU ARE HOME!!!

I'm so stinkin' glad you had yourself a good time in your home state. Did they throw you a welcome back parade?? (I wouldn't be surprised.)

It looks like you and the fuzzbrat found ways to get along and keep each other amused. I'm thinking it was probably nice to have somewhere so big to run around after that 11 hour car ride. You are one intrepid traveler!

Can't wait to hear more about your trip and see all of the food photos and photos of you and the FB (FuzzBrat). It's almost like you have your own Stellanator... wait a minute... you have the Duffinator! OH NOOOO!!! Watch out for the Duffinator!!!!!

Don't tell him he now has a monster name. It may give him ideas!

I missed your sweet face and now will send hot juicy goob smooches to cover it!

Goober love,
Stanley

Duffy is so fluffy (hey it rhymes) and cute!! Do you think his mommi would mind if we swopped her puppy with our puppy? I am sure she would love Hershey.. and Hershey is such a good girl too **innocent look**.

OMD, it took you longer to get there than to Rome, Asta! How did you survive, especially with little Duffy beside you?!

I can't wait to hear more about your trip; it looks like you were off to a great start.

I'm glad Bobo became your friend, too. Those bostons can be kind of persnickity at times.

What a nice drive to a lovely home. We can tell all ready that your vacation was a wonderful one. I hope you wore Duffy out from all that playing.

Luna "The Scruffy Yacht Dog" said...

Asta,

Cool... nothing like a road trip. North Carolina looks beautiful. You and Duffy must of had fun running around in the yard with no lead. Little Duffy is a cutie, he is sure lucky to have you showing him the ropes.
