“Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave, and grow old wanting to get back to”- John Ed Pearce
It is true; I did want to go on a bold new adventure with Beth. When she told me we were moving to big sky country I was so excited. Being from a shelter I didn’t think you could get sky any bigger than the open fields in the Snake River valley. Boy was I wrong. Montana is filled with wide open spaces and the biggest sky a dog could ever even dream of. At night it gets even bigger too, if you can believe that. There are so many stars in the sky it is amazing.
However, I am becoming an old man (as Beth likes to say). I am really starting to miss the days spent by the lazy river, and the wonderful people at Auction West. I mean think of all the extra hotdogs that have probably went to waste because I was not there to save them from the garbage can. And who has been on security duty? When I say security I mean making sure that the patrons a securely entertained by petting me!
Well, all of this is about to change. Beth told me just the other day that we are moving home. She also informed me of some boring human things about a job transfer but by then I had stopped listening and started daydreaming about geo-caching with grandma and grandpa; and my Ebony, the most beautiful black lab on the face of this planet. It was love at first site when I saw my Ebby for the first time, and how I have missed her.
Beth said things are going to be very busy for awhile and the Ryan and Bailey (little sister) will be moving back first. It is mine and Beth’s job to stay behind and sell the house. This sounds like a big job and I am glad we will be a team on it. I guess we will just have to see how things go. I will keep you updated.
